If you are a speed demon, don't try it. It is very cheap for a reason.

Try Hifly instead.

OP, why not buy a major brand like Dunlop, Firestone, Michelin, etc that spends money on research and development?

Your automotive life rests on tires and brakes.

Good luck on your decision.

dicksonadams:
.. Boss what is the average price for this Dunlop... I need 4

EgunMogaji2:


Sorry but I don’t know.

I just wanted to encourage a safety purchase.

Good luck.

PS: Please don’t buy used tires also.

I used double king for 4 years. on the fifth year one vulcanizer showed me ‘koko’ on one of them so I put another set of 4 dk tyres again the next week.

I think the tyres are good for private use. If your roads are fair and ride isn’t too heavy then expect at least 3 years use from them. Just buy the right size for your car, balance and align.

Donlop, continental and it’s mates can give you up to 10 years of guaranteed use of you have the cash for it.

How much for this donlop self

If your average speed on highway is more than 100 km/h, stay away from Double King Tyres sold in Nigeria for now, unless you have zero love for yourself. They explode on high-speed at will.

Just because they are too cheap doesn't mean they are good deals. Your life depends on tyre qualities on highway or high vehicle speed.

I bought tyres recently - 215/60 rim16, Westlake brand(chinese made) at 17k each. The same type of tyre by Michellin was selling for 42k each. While michellin, dunlop may be good but they are too expensive and there's no gurantee that they will last the number of years taunted above, given the condition of our roads.
Before i bought 4 Westlake tyres, i did a bit of research and settled for it - i found that though chinese-made it's sold in USA and over 40 other countries.
I have been using the tyres for over 2 months and no issue. The problem with some people is that they misuse their tyre e.g overgauge or underguage ignorantly or deliberately.
My advice is, get a good quality guage of your own or better still air compressor that comes with a guage attached. Believe me, those roadside guys (called "vulcanizers" in nigeria) will ruin your tyres from day one because the gauge they use can be dangerously inaccurate. I once had a puntured tyre mended and pumped by one and when i got home i used my own reliable/accurate guage and it read 55 psi, not 40 psi recorded by the useless guage the roadside guy used. Very dangerous indeed, because the maximum pressure recommended on the tyre's sidewall was 44 psi.
Another thing i have noticed is that the " vulcanizers" are fixated on 40 psi for all cars. But manufacturer's recommended tyre pressure varies. For my car its 28 psi ( but i normally pump a little above that).
So Op the bottom line is, the way you use your tyres determines the mileage you get out of them.
