Yes you're correct they are OEM for many manufacturers, however that doesn't change the point made regarding what's available locally, my Hyundai came with Nexen tyres that handled well in wet and dry conditions, when the time came to replace them I went with locally available Nexens that met the size and load spec, eventually one became bent despite my careful driving. I moved to larger rims with the exact same model Nexen and 2 were bent within 1 week of installation, they were replaced and another one was bent after 8 months. I think the opinions here about the brand has some validityRyan197912 wrote:Rovin wrote:roadstone fits into d category of "dem cheap chinese tires" , if he meant BRIDGEstone well daz different

Clearly someone who does not read. Roadstone and Nexen are the same. They are OEM supplier for VW, Porsche, Mitsubishi, KIA, Hyundai, Skoda and more. Perhaps you know more than the engineers at those companies.

Most of the local aftermarket nexen are from China. I have used them both and the difference is noticiable..
How does one determine whether a quality standard was followed for a tyre manufactured in China versus one that was not?kamakazi wrote:What is wrong with tyres made in China... As far as I am concerned once the brand can make a performance tyre that is recognized in that particular sport (in the case of maxxis, off road/rock crawling,mountain biking/cycling)...i will give there passenger car tyres a try.
Things in China are made to order, if you want it cheap they can do that but they also make quality if that is requested but it usually comes with a price premium. I am also observing that even though a company started off making cheap products, the quality offered can also improve
Maxxis is one of the few Chinese tyre brands I will purchase/recommend. I'm also observing the quality improvement in hifly (SUV tyres).
Now everyone's measure of a good tyre is different. The order of importance of some or all of the following will determine their purchase. Factors like longevity, grip, toughness, looks, price, suitability, brand recognition.
I generally want the most grip for the best price... Longevity takes a back seat unless my driving is mostly highway
