hi. I have a suzuki mehran 2011 with 55,000 KMs on the meter.
I never changed its company fitted general tyres but rotated them every 10,000 KMs accordingly AND they are still in good shape.
My question is that when should I change them to be on a safe side? and also suggest me some good tyres for mehran in case I need to change them.

Brother u have drove enough 55k that's to much for general I think it's because of ur maintenanc.

If u want to change tyres then brands :
Hankook Korea
Yokohama japan
Zeetex China

Brother if they are in good shape you should keep rotating and using them with proper inflation unless they are worn out.

On the other hand if they are in good shape you can exchange them for a good price and buy any branded set.

If they are in good condition as you said, having good grip (as they dont have) and not getting punctured daily. In short if their is enough grove left on tire then keep it. But if you want to decrease the load of you pocket and enjoy some good grip, more comfort and less noisy then go for any branded tires.

It can be sold to any big tyre shop. And price depends upon condition.

Brother u can go opposite to noorani kabab and khalid bin waleed road.

The max u would get for general XP tyres is 4-8K rupees if in good condition , eurostar 195/65R15 will fetch slightly more.

The thing is you should get some good branded tyres like Michelin Goodyear Pirelli Yokohama etc.
