Bridgestone GR80

it's not really a fixed price. if you know what i mean.

 

don't intend to spoil tyre dealers' markets. but sometimes playing hard to get at a correct shop at the correct timing can get you a relatively better price.

 

Thanks bro... yep.. I know what you mean bro... just wanna know the market price (range)...dun wanna get chop carrot head u see...

no worry bro. in case he refuse to match the rates, than tell him that your bro driving G9 came to change the same size n brand tyre before cny.

How's your GR80 coming along so far? was your previous tires GR80 too?

 

My current tires are stock tires on the Mitsubishi Lancer (Yokohama Aspec DB something) haha...

[Toy_car]

yup, my previous tires also GR80 n last me for only 50K and can see that it still doing well accept for my front tire aligment got problem and end up it "eat" the tire on 1 side thats y no choice but to change to a new set. good in wet road also but as for performance im not too sure as G9 cant do corner..

Hi, is there 195/50/15 profile for this range of tyres? Planning on a change in coming month so doing my research. Am also comtemplating of Falken 912.

[Toyo]

Falken 912 definitely have this size 195/50R15 as i enquire before. not sure abt GR80

[Toy_car]

Hi all,

 

Seems that the GR80 is one good set of rubbers.

 

getting my Civic 1.8 soon..

 

thinking of getting 17inches..any idea how much would it cost? width either 215 or 225 ya?

 

Thanks folks :)

 

My kaki jus checked his 215/45R17 GR80 with one of the tyre shop which is mentioned in this thread and price was S$198.00 Per Pc

 

GR80 is really worth such a price IMHO

Thanks bro. Will keep this in mind. Overall preference is for comfort and there are good reviews for GR80. Probably my first choice unless it does not coming in 195/50/15 then will go for falken

[Jiahui]

No issue Will check with my regular tyre shop

[Jiahui]

With fuel prices slated to go up further, expecting prices for tyre and batteries to be affected. Haiz.

[Mzrmazda3]

Yeah Bro

 

But to pay $198 for a piece of 215/45R17 GR80 is not that worthwhile IMHO

Dun talk about it, my batt and tyres change are all due around this time pengz.

 

Tyres of that size are not that cheap in the first place. For the consumer to do his/her own research and justify the reason/price for their purchase. Ownself feel shiok and worthwhile can already

[Toyo]

GR80 is not cheap. u may want to consider Hankook V8rs. it is as comfort as GR80, price wise shld be similar and V8 definitely have yr size.
