Its money well spent, those others had seen better days ! I stayed at Taal Vista Lodge back in the 80's, it was right beside Taal Lake. Our room faced the volcano, which was constantly simmering ! There were 2 eruptions since then, last one was earlier this year. Found Taal Vista Hotel online, I'll never forget that view from my room, . . . gorgeous ! Thanks for the video !
Just back from the bush. U had an interesting trip around. Hit it right on the head - good service deserves good endorsement - great service deserves James’ vlog! 👍
Hello Po I enjoyed your vlog . Hey I have a good friend and a fellow U tuber that lives there in Lippa he owns a house there. he's also brought some property in Mindoro as well where his wife is from . Those look like good tires James and the price wasn't bad either .I think they will serve you well on/ off road I just hope your tire road noise isn't bad with them Po . God Bless. Mabuhay .
Those tires look great on your truck! The old ones are on their last legs for sure...I'm always watching the condition of my tires, if they blow when you're going fast, could be a disaster! Funny how customer service never grows old/is king...I've taken my business elsewhere too if I experience what you did in the other shops...Thanks for the tip ref. the hotel too...Off my list of places to stay now! 😆
We really appreciate your good feedback on our shop, sir James. If there were any shortcomings in our service, please let me know so I can address it and improve our services. It was a great pleasure assisting you. Regards to your wife, ma'am Mel :) keep safe you both!
It was a pleasure doing business with you and you making it a fun stress free happy experience. World needs lots of places like yours. Be proud and be happy. Hope we meet again!
It was a car mad at a suv for pulling out. Little pissing contest. LOL I hear ya those big buses blow their horns for everything including greeting each other.
I've been watching your vlog's for almost a week already and staying up late (east coast time) catching up all your video's. Lol. Living here in US as a filipino made me realize how life in the Phil is way more better, easy and relaxing,,
My Filipina wife disagrees she says life is hard and dirty there but I've spoiled her and the kids real good(they deserve it). She was a Mt. Pinatubo evacuee and lived a pretty rough little life. But I always tell her that I want to live there with our income from here in the USA 🇺🇸. One day in gonna build her a big beautiful house there like James did so she can enjoy her family and the PI in style.
Im from batangas, good to know the hotel behind the mall is no good Sometimes when i go back home i like to stay in hotels when i stay late in lipa or batangas city
Who would of thought that riding on a Ro-ro was so hard on tires. If your tire is not the exact same size as the stock tires do you have to get your vehicle inspected again at that motor vehicle inspection station you were at last month? A wee bit of rain coming down again. See you next month. Good vid.
Its good you did not to get to manila before you have tires change because your tires could blow up in the expressway with the condition of your tires.
*Secure your things sir especially traversing batangas, cavite and metro manila. There are these street dwellers who steal anything, even the iron rod from big trucks. Anything that's beneficial for them.*
Actually you would be surprised how much I drive. I have done stacked some miles on that lil truck. Look I have done worn the tires out if that tell ya something.
The tires I bought were same size 265s in 18s and I have gotten about 40k on them already. Biggest problem is alot of tire shops do not offer balancing even though they have the equipment. I was really amazed how well just getting rid of those stock tires reduced tire spin on muddy roads. That place is in LIpa? I like that they have some 10plys Hope they are not to loud on the express way
Dave yes there are in Lipa. Those tires are not loud on the road at all. I am really loving them. Also oddly enough my truck can make a sharper turn now. I think the small highway thread tires was slipping in the front when I u turned tight. I think it is what was wearing them. These grip and the truck turns right on around. It is a unexpected benefit. Yes 10 ply too which is a bonus. The truck drives so much better and rides better now as well. Give that shop a try for your tire needs. I was very impressed with their service.
Nothing like a new set of rubber and man those look good! Wyndham is no good anymore, they'll put their name on anything, our last resort railroad hotels were bought by them. I've enjoyed this Texas Filipino mini-series. Good stuff. Mel looks like she's ready to get home and I know you are too. I hope you guys are safe at home now, take care.
I live in Lipa City and this is the same tire shop that helped me replace 2 tires that blew out from a road hazard. That was pre Covid. Now it is time to get a complete set of 4 and I will be going back there. They way they treated you was the same way they treated me before. Definitely a place for repeat customers. A-1 SERVICE.
HELLO Not Ya PaPa .How the hell are ya ? Man it is Odd I never notice what a tire shop smells like my guess would be rubber .kinda like the smell of a Trojan condom after a evening of high speed performance testing Lmao 🤣 😆
Wow, you had better be careful driving on tires that you had on your car. You said they were going bad. I would say they were shot by any standard. Be careful with tires like that especially carrying a load. Very dangerous! 🙏
There are many tire shops near me.. The best one I found.. Was a briggstone dealer... I've been very happy with that products...
You got some very good tires
You can kinda tell when a Shop is Good. They are also clean and organized as well.
Great rain footage👍
Good looking tires, hope they last ya long time....
Nice travel vlog sir james.... enjoy the ride with wife mel and the bodyguard... 👍👍👍
Nice looking tires 👍😎
Sweet looking tires! I bet they sound nice going down the road too.
Ready to go rock climbing now :)
Nice tires!

Good shoes for the shank pony can make you go anywhere.
Yeah,the tires look great 😊
I also see you found a guy with a... State of the art front end alignment machine..
Enjoy guys and keep safe always..
Pretty big tires might have to get the speedometer recalibrated.
Great vlog! How are these tires doing?
Just back from the bush. U had an interesting trip around. Hit it right on the head - good service deserves good endorsement - great service deserves James’ vlog! 👍
You got that right!
This is just all along our journey. The journey continues

@@TexasFilipino Thank you po. More power to your vlog!
Glad you had a good experience in Lipa City that is where our home is. Looking forward to being there in January.
Remember this shop if you have any tire business. They deserve it
Nice tire shop! I think your old tires will get another 30,000 miles in some way. Always enjoy you and Mel's adventures and truth.
Dream on lol
The Roads are so bad even on the Expressways that sidewall cuts are a big problem.
Guidance tires is about 40 kilometers from my place. Yall still have a few hours to travel.
James did you check the date on the tires ! Those tires look great
Good choice radar rt plus

Horn blowing of both buses means greeting each other hello

I had this all already planned. I was never going to Manila without changing them. in fact I never went to Manila - just east Laguna in the mountains
My Filipino expert.. My wife says you are about 1 1/2 hours from where we live..
Lipa , home of the 11th Airbornre Division WW2 ! Dunno if airfield is still there LOL

Those are some nice looking tires, get ya through the BS, ya dont do too many miles/year, might last a long time.
Actually you would be surprised how much I drive. I have done stacked some miles on that lil truck. Look I have done worn the tires out if that tell ya something.
How fresh are the tires ? Thats what I check when buying tires . Age code
That plug has gotta be 20% discount on your tyres....

How's the road noise on the new tires, seemed quiet from that brief clip at the end.
not noisy at all and I am really liking them.
You're in Lipa. Okay? So, will James be visiting James?
Nothing like a new set of rubber and man those look good! Wyndham is no good anymore, they'll put their name on anything, our last resort railroad hotels were bought by them. I've enjoyed this Texas Filipino mini-series. Good stuff. Mel looks like she's ready to get home and I know you are too. I hope you guys are safe at home now, take care.
far from home yet the journey is still going on.

Ano po tire detail
Hey! How are the tires holding up? Did the tires make the ride less bumpy?
These have been absolutely great tires.
How's the tires so far?
Those tires are great. Looking good and holding up good!
Now your talking bro
Another vlogger complained how expensive hotel room rates are in Batangas.
they are and for crappy hotels
Put the wide on they will look good but yet again what in the hell do I know
lol
That's a ply separation, poor quality tires, under inflated tires usually causes the ply separation
