Nobody is advising him correctly. My brother buy Michelin or bridgestone or continental or goodyear. Yokohama is the also very good. Please buy a tire you are very sure off. Buy tire that will last for more than 5-6years. Those other tire will die in less than 3 years. Be guided!!


How much do those tyres cost and where to get authorised dealers in Lagos, etc?

Hi nairalanders!

I bought a fairly Nigerian used Toyota Camry 2006 model early last year, and they came with recently changed tires according to the owner, all of the tyres are model contiroveter evolution with manufacture date of 22/14. They all look OK.

However on my way to my PPA in Benue last month, two of the tires had issues, one ripped completely on my way, while the other irreparably wore down at the centre when I got there.

Now I'm planning on changing all tires. Please I will appreciate any advice on the best cost effective tires for replacement and their current relative prices.

Thanks.
, go for D.K. Had a complete 4 for 60k since 24 Dec last year, have travelled for like 3-4 times to the village still benue state and they still give me confidence.

I can say your vulcanizer did a terrible job. He most prolly mounted the tyres wrongly or over inflated the tyres.

QED
Most likely. But what about the other issue of the second tyre wearing out inexplicably.

I have not used double king and I will not cos of bad testimonies I had about it. It's either you go for quality and put aside 'cost effectiveness' or you choose the later n bite your fingers later. Michelin or GT radial I recommend.
Also try buy from authorised dealer.
WHERE U GO SEE AUTHORIZED DEALERS IN ALL THE 774 LOCAL GOVERNMENTS OF THE COUNTRY

Still using my 4set of Wanli China tyres bought at obafemi awolowo way, ikj. Dec, 2017 will make it 4 years and bro, no issues. Car travels wella.
Before you buy, pls check year of manufacture eg 4217. Meaning wk 42 in year 2017.
Life span 4 years from manufacturers date
Max, psi 35 for me, as was educated. (A journey of an hour increase your psi by 1. Five hour trip 5psi, tyre max psi 44/45. So 35+5=40psi thus max not reached. Reason for a lot of blown tyres especially commercial buses and imagine if toks tyre not new.

waow quite informative
Thanks for the info
Means one should not always inflate types to there maximum capacity, to give room for expansion right?

I only use name brand tires Goodyear, Firestone, Dunlop, etc but will use Kuhmo in a pinch.

Bridgestone tires are about N80k each in Ibadan for my Toyota 4Runner.

Tires dictate how your vehicle is going to behave and they are also a safety item.

Yes, money is tight but your safety and that of other road users are paramount.
