To me is yes for the size but not the tyres cos most taxi company will go for the cheapest tyres so that they can save more...

And the bad habit of taxi companies, in particular Singapore's largest fleet owned by the gaverment, which don't replace tyres in a pair, and when taxis are due for scrap, they avoid changing even an almost bald tyre - related to me by taxi drivers.

But so far, for the Hyundai Sonata taxis, they stick with Kumho, which is quite a quiet and grippy tyre. I can't say the same for the older Crown taxis though. Why do I know? My dad is a taxi driver, so please don't argue with me. :D

Just like the avante, some batches are fixed with kumho, and some batches are fitted with hankook.

Both are the same company right? Understand that one of them is the subsidiary of the other. Actually Kumho tyres are very under rated. They are quite grippy and quiet not to mention cheap too.

Don't think so :smile:
jliow:
maybe its just me, don't think will try anything thats korean on my car. Some bros will of coz counter that but like i said its just me.
I simply had many product built problems with things that are built, made, engineered in Korea.
They are good at the onset and asthetics and a packaging, but somewhere along the way during use, something will just fail catestrophically, so I attribute that to built issue
Made in China stuff also no need for me to say much, but this is just my experiences with korean stuff.
However, I must say their LCD panels are rather cost effective and durable.
