Tires MRF or OEM Volkswagen
I had Bridgestone B250 165/80 R14 as stock on my Ritz 2011, those were very bad at braking performance, and didn\u2019t provide any kind of comfort at all, even the underbody touched a few speed breakers when the car was fully loaded. But then I switched to MRF ZLX 185/70 R14 tyres and those were in a league of their own, great braking, comfort and much less body roll.
Haven't done a super long road trip in my MK8.5 - but have done a few 200mi trips. The car absolutely eats up the miles. Seats are super comfortable, cabin noise is tolerable, and I averaged 34MPG both ways cruising between 72 and 80. I personally despise adaptative cruise control, so I immediately turned it off (aggressive Boston traffic makes it unbearable). I did keep the lane assist on which is fine, not as good as the lane keep in my Raptor, but works very well. I'm more than happy with the ride, and once I get on to some smooth pavement, the 200 treadwear tires really quiet down.
Same in my Nexon, so far the tyres have been good. One tyre had a sidewall puncture after 28k kms. Replaced it with the same. The rest of them are running without zero punctures in 37.6k kms, and have seen all kinds of terrains. I'm quite satisfied with the performance.
Hey guys, Thanks to you guys, I got it checked on time through MRF FAAST and got a replacement for less than half the price of new tyre.
Find an MRF FASST service centre if you have around you.
Go there and and get this replaced, they will provide a newly manufactured same tire, and will charge you for tire depriciation of the old one.
I have the MRF Markus on my car; they are overall a great tire, but the road conditions, especially after monsoon, are absolute shit, and these low-profile EV tires struggle a bit.
I have had a similar experience, yes that's the procedure. The tire will be sent to MRF'S factor or Lab, from where they will confirm that it's a manufacturing defect not the users problem. They will give you a replacement.
Same issue with my Skoda Rapid. Got it replaced immediately at Ekkatuthangal MRF on a pro rata basis.
Same issue with my virtus. Got replaced tyre under warranty
Happened to my MRF tyres too! A bubble on the sidewall. Had to get the tyres replaced.
