That's a jolly good deal!   ;D

GR80 is still very popular amongst motorists and is generally very reliable.

Agree.  It is quieter and the price is reasonable.  If it is phased out, hope the replacement will be comparable in terms of noise and cost.

Wow, good rating for GR80.

I "NO REGRET"  :bleh: to use the Stock Toyo until 25000 km now. Still going well.

Will change the tyres after I feel enough of it.

More quiet & reliable & better grip is good, so, may change in near future. May be after 28000 or 30000km. My next service is 28000km. ^$^  :thumbsup:

Regards.

 :confused1: Care to elaborate why cannot fit? I got a stock TOYO tire (with the crappy steel rims) in my trunk. Used it twice already. Both times my flat tire can go into the space also. :confused1:
