Are Korean tyres much more expensive than Chinese tyres?

Korean tyres like Kumho ES31 Ecowing are also made in China

if u mean this. then dun need bother too much esp for those non branded.

u can have a burget tyres that is about 1/4 price of a potenza, but they can print traction AA on it.

its only accurate to a certain degree if u compare it within the same brand.

Yepz-I dun really bother about brand...other than inclined UTQG ratings, real user reviews online and research will also influence decisions.😉

A person may be slow driver.. but you will never know when another blur kuku driver cut into your lane suddenly. 

Emergency brake is necessary and the tyres braking distance become very important especially on wet road. You will never know when this will happen.

Thus good tyre is important, you drive safe does not be other drive safe.

 

Yup...in addition to good tyre, everyone should upgrade their brake..best to get the 8-pot-brake-caliper if budget allow.

Not point just getting good tyre alone...brake caliper is also important during E-brake.

No point BBK with giant calipers and rear still drum brake. 🤪

[Ooosh]

no point having bkk and large 19/20 inch rims. Saw alot of CH-R on ridiculously large rims. 

Of course its their car and their choice but its stupid

these upgrade is for those affordable..

Google says its not the BBK, it's the tyre that counts. Unless it's repeated hard braking, say on the track where BBK is better at heat dissipation. 

 

Stopping Friction

The common myth of a big brake kit is that your car will stop faster with larger pads and rotors because you have more surface area (thus more friction).  The truth of the matter is that most likely, you already have more stopping friction in your stock brakes that you can use.  If you are doing 60mph and hit the brakes as hard as you can, you will notice your ABS kicking in due to your street tires not being able to put the grip to the road.  Without ABS, most likely you will find your tires locked up and skidding across the pavement.  Your braking force is ultimately limited by tire grip.  If you are able to lock up your tires, then you don’t need any more friction

Try explaining this to people who install 4-6 pot BBK 😂.
