Big statement to make, any real experiences?
I've used GIII & they gave good performance.
Im still wary of Yoko's because they still do not have a Indian website, that's piece of crap really!
@Punker, see I told ya, go in for the new one only.
I do not forsee any huge price rise, maybe just a couple thousands if at all.
Also, If there's unbearable heat during summers in Bhopal, opt for some lighter colors.
GIII are old now and the really good ones were the imported ones, the japanese ones which are no more available.Now they are made locally and aren't as good as the japanese ones.Also its an old pattern and there are newer and better tread patterns out there.Also from what I have heard, they are really noisy tyres.
Whats wrong with Yoko not having official indian website ? Even Michelin entered the same way.Its now that they have an official presence.I guess same is the case with Bridgestone.
Point is that Yoko has some decent tyres and their Advan range is truly awesome but expensive. If I could afford, I would buy the Advans any given day. They have phenomenal grip. They are so good that comparing GIII to Advans is like a gross insult to the Advans.
I have to admit though, since GIII are made locally, they are cheaper compared to PP2 or PS2 or Advans which are not made locally.
