Civic6656 1st Gear September 9, 2010 Share September 9, 2010 I think Duro is a US co with mfg plant in Taiwan. I saw the label "made in Taiwan" on DP-8000. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verve 1st Gear September 15, 2010 Share September 15, 2010 tried this tyre it costs much less than jap equivalent and thread is fierce looking noise level good considering its a performance tyre and grip not the best but better than average overall i think it kicks ass for value for money. a good competitor to the federals Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yixiang1 3rd Gear September 15, 2010 Share September 15, 2010 I remember i enquired before and Ah Ho recommended Duro to me.... very few shops carry Duro it seems... in the end took Kumho from other tyre shop.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Verve 1st Gear September 15, 2010 Share September 15, 2010 its a new brand so naturally people are a little more apprehesive. they have to price themselves aggressively for people to try that said its only $10 less than the 595 evo i took a chance and hopefully in the long term it pays off i took it cos it has much lower threadwear think its only 200 threadwear so value for $$$ if it does well i think in long term this tyre will be more expensive than what it is now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurryup Clutched October 6, 2010 Author Share October 6, 2010 200 is considered high wear rate right? i have read thru a few thread on the forum with guys mentioning usually grippy tyres have higher wear rate ie lower threadwear figure.. cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex250 Clutched October 6, 2010 Share October 6, 2010 200 is considered high wear rate right? i have read thru a few thread on the forum with guys mentioning usually grippy tyres have higher wear rate ie lower threadwear figure.. cheers yes u r right.....but lets not confuse terms here, high threadwear is equilvalent to lower threadwear indicator number. Usuall tyes come ard 200-250 range I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
