m0h1t said:How are the Bridgestone turanza AR10?
I just bought 2 (175/70-R13) for Rs.2200 each for my Esteem vxi.
How do these compare to the Potenza G3 or the Turanza ER30?

m0h1t said:I confirmed from 2-3 more shops across delhi before buying, the maximum price quoted for the AR10 was 2350.
Also my entire family buy's from this guy, he wouldn't dare sell fakes to me.
Nonetheless there must be something based on which one could say that these are fakes or not, like a serial no. etc?
Nikhil said:Well, maybe some sort of seconds tyres? One thing is that these are grey market for sure. 100%. That itself is a cause for worry.
Why he is selling so cheap, I dont know.
I will still not rule out fakes.
Delhi is famous for fakes, Chinese and ridiculous shit.
Source: Car Bibles : The Wheel and Tyre Bible Page 1 of 4The E-mark. All tyres sold in Europe after July 1997 must carry an E-mark. The mark itself is either an upper or lower case "E" followed by a number in a circle or rectangle, followed by a further number.
An "E" (upper case) indicates that the tyre is certified to comply with the dimensional, performance and marking requirements of ECE regulation 30.
An "e" (lower case) indicates that the tyre is certified to comply with the dimensional, performance and marking requirements of Directive 92/33/EEC.
The number in the circle or rectangle denotes the country code of the government that granted the type approval. 11 is the UK. The last number outside the circle or rectangle is the number of the type approval certificate issued for that particular tyre size and type.
Source: Tyre Choice Warning! "Fake" tyres being sold (including Goodyear F1) - CivinfoAll tyres must carry an E marking, followed by a certificate number several digits long. If your tyre has no certificate number, it is illegal and the tyre dealer should change it for you immediately. A pic of an E marking with certificate number is posted below.
Nikhil said:Well, all that is ok.
I would still be wary of someone selling me tyres so cheap.
Did'nt buy both, that would be stupidbottle said:Why 2 different patterns ?
Nikhil said:ER60 is more expensive? Baaah... either I'm out of the loop with BS or something's wrong.
I have a feeling it's the former. Time for me to get back to work properly!
