Rmteamrims 1st Gear March 5, 2013 Share March 5, 2013 Me too...can't find at all... Tyre shop guy said might be only printed on the sticker but got to remove for installation lor... surely all tyres print their country of manufacture on the tyre. But not on both side, if you can't find it, its probably on the inner side of the tyres. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bighero Neutral Newbie March 5, 2013 Share March 5, 2013 i have just changed from Pirelli to Continental. Conti is certainly quieter Dont understand how some can compare grippy or not...unless you really push your car. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popok 1st Gear March 5, 2013 Share March 5, 2013 Brother bridgestone got their BIG plant or factory in indonesia. so i suppose QC can be control to make sure the Quality is consistently GOOD. So dont any how made assumption like this , is not fair to them What is the point to have a origin from japan(not to mention the brand) but OLD technology Premium tyre companies are spending lots of Money and effort to develope new technologies product to help us make our journey SAFER and SAFER. I trust company name, so i dont really care where it's made i love my made in indonesia re002 as compared to my made in jap re001..grippier that's for sure!

Grix17 Clutched March 8, 2013 Share March 8, 2013 is it true pirelli typically cost more than continental and michellin? Depends, but usually true. There are some Pirellis not made in Europe (eg. Dragon) that are cheaper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acemundo Supercharged March 8, 2013 Share March 8, 2013 Depends, but usually true. There are some Pirellis not made in Europe (eg. Dragon) that are cheaper. oh thanks....say if both are made in europe i suppose pirelli is more expensive? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grix17 Clutched March 8, 2013 Share March 8, 2013 oh thanks....say if both are made in europe i suppose pirelli is more expensive? Generally, on average the prices are in the order of Pirelli, Continental, then Michelin. Don't forget they need to pay models to strip for their calendar .. just kiddin. I'm not a tyre dealer - only a tyre 'enthusiast' so I can't provide numerical evidence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
