有圖有真相.
黎緊盡可能都會更新唔同牌子既行同水貨既分別.
個人覺得, 用行貨貼紙做識別始終都唔夠準, 最好就係寫埋張收據証明埋條呔係行貨咁就冇問題啦.
📢(2025年6月18日更新):
越黎越多行貨輪胎做番保養. 例如輪胎"生仔", 可以向代理申請索償一條全新輪胎 (受條款及細則約束)
現時有額外的行貨保養:
米芝蓮 Michelin, 石橋 Bridgestone, 馬牌 Continental , Dunlop , Kumho 錦湖, Kenda 建大 (只限於輪胎"生仔"), Goodyear
所謂行貨, 其實同出面大部分商業行業一樣, 係該牌子公司給予另一間公司成為代表佢, 以佢既地位 批發輪胎. (即現時所講既 代理, 或總代理). 係汽車行業入面, 通常只有一間可以成為代理. 因為代理都只係代表佢背後既公司, 所以有啲決定權都不在於代理身上. 包括我地本應以為買行貨就會有既保養.

呢個牌子係目前我分唔出到底行貨定係水貨. 因為行貨冇總代理標籤, 而水貨又有車呔規格標籤. 呢個就自己問呔鋪啦. 不過就算問左, 都可以俾水貨而自己唔知.
*The warranty calculation is actually the same as those oversea (such as Australia and U.S). It's base on the kilometer that you have used the tire, and pay the partial amount of fees to purchase a new Dunlop tire if the old one accidentally torn apart. There is a distinct difference between Dunlop warranty and Continental warranty

Authorized Official Parallel Imported
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All listed products in our official webpage, https://www.tyrehood.com/en are authorized official tyres. If you are interested in purchasing parallel imported tyre, please enquire for information.
Parallel imported tyres price are not available (for the moment perhaps)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How about other brands such as Kenda, Federal? I don't think there will be parallel imported tyres for these brands. But I will keep myself updated and update the post.
水貨輪胎, 並非假輪胎. 同樣都是同一公司製造廠製造. 製造輪胎成本係非常貴. 所以無可能會有人舍得出超過一千萬本金去製造假輪胎. 未經該牌子批准該公司發售所以叫水貨. 概然唔批準, 點解幾十年來, 都仲有水貨輪胎的存在? 呢個就俾大家去考量下.
水貨呔製造地點有時與行貨可能不一樣. 如, 行水貨製造地點都是歐洲製. 但行貨可能是法國製, 水貨可能是墨西哥製, 反之亦然.
其他牌子既保養為品質保養. 即落左地後可能第一日就見呔紋位置隆起. 但檢驗及最後決定權係總代理手上. 並沒有提及呢啲保養係幾耐. Kenda 建大就有12個月.
(2024年12月23日更新):
近日水貨電器懷疑出現假貨, 可能又令到唔少人對於水貨輪胎產生左會唔會有假貨. 所以我決定幫大家搵一搵過去事件, 除左有一單好似睇落似係假貨但其實係有關於個牌子模具懷疑被間廠用左, 其他所有都係有關用相似牌子名稱及抄襲呔紋.
1) 北美米芝蓮告 Tri-Ace 抄襲其品牌 BFGoodrich 呔紋
2) 東洋(Toyo) 告 Toyama 抄襲其品牌名稱 (商標)
3) 石橋 (Bridgestone) 告 模仿其商標 "Bridgestone" (呢單係中國判石橋嬴)
4)Pegasus Advanta SUV 並非由獲授權的廠商製造 (說是模具被偷) [過往曾經是獲授權的廠商]
仲有更多, 但都係模仿牌子名, 抄呔紋設計. 反而呢啲係香港都有時候見唔少, 但肯定唔係假冒牌子或假輪胎.
另外我更肯定, 香港9成車主買呔都唔知有分行同水貨. 二手車買番黎更加冇可能判斷到是否行貨/水貨.

因為好多年前曾經有一個人問佢係另一間呔鋪裝Michelin 唔知係咪行貨, send 左張相想我幫佢確認. 其實點解唔直接問個代理最直接?
其實如果唔信間呔鋪, 一開始就唔好幫襯. 因為一開始您都唔信, 之後所講既野您都唔會聽得入耳. 買左個擔憂番黎行幾年, 又何必呢?

-----------------------
There is a Chinese version of this post, and I realize that I should have made the English version for this as well such that the English speaking Hong Kong residents are aware of the authorized official tyre as compared to parallel imported tyre (aka grey market products) in the current Hong Kong market.
There are more than 20 different brands in Hong Kong, and I will try to update with photos as much as possible.
There are more than 20 different brands in Hong Kong, and I will try to update with photos as much as possible.
I personally advise car owners / drivers to request a receipt, stating that the tyre is authorized official tyre to ensure the product information. Simply using the photos as depicted below where sole agent paste the label does not help a lot in the differentiation.
(28th Nov, 2024 Update):
Authorized Official, just like any other commercial industry, refers to the authorization of that particular (brand) company given to the agent to represent on behalf of them, and in which supply/sell that brand. (normally known as Sole Agent in the tyre industry). Because of that, not all decision can be made by the sole agent, including the "warranty" that we believe we expected to have after purchasing the Authorized Official.
Parallel Imported tire, is not counterfeit tire. Those are manufactured from the exact same factory. It's impossible to counterfeit a tire as the cost of production is extremely high. Without authorization of selling the product is aka parallel imported goods. Since it is not authorized, why such goods can still be sold in the market for more than 5 decades?
Parallel imported tire manufacture place sometimes is different from the authorized official. Both side may manufacture in Europe, but might be in different places. The Authorized one could be in France, and the parallel imported could be in Mexico, or vice versa.
Authorized Official brands that let you enjoy "extra" warranty include: Continental , Bridgestone, Dunlop, Goodyear.
Other brands are quality warranty, in which cases like the new installed tyre have a bulb at the tread area on the first few days or so. (which happened to one or two China brands before). Inspection and final decisions lie on the hands of the sole agent. None mentioned about such warranty period. Only Kenda tyre had 12 months on it.
(23 Dec, 2024 update)
A recent parallel imported appeared to be counterfeit electronic products may raise some people awareness if it could happen on the tyre industry as well. Hence, I decided to find out any counterfeit tyre happens in the past, with only one that looks alike but not exactly counterfeit.
1) North America Michelin file lawsuit against Tri-Ace for copying BFGoodrich tread pattern design
2) Toyo file lawsuit against Toyama for copying trademark
3) Bridgestone file lawsuit against its similar trademark "Bridgestone" (in China)
4)Pegasus Advanta SUV was manufactured by an unauthorized manufacturer (tyre mold said to be stolden) [manufacturer was authorized in the past]
There are more cases like these only for copying or imitating the brand name or copying the tread pattern design. Tread pattern design looks really similar even with tyres sold in Hong Kong. But there are none that are counterfeited.
Besides, I can assure that most vehicle owners do not know there are authorized and parallel imported tyres. And it cannot be found out if the tyres are authorized or parallel imported when tyres are already installed and used.

(28 Nov, 2024 Update):
Some years back, a person who installed Michelin at another tyre store, send me an image to ask for verification if his installed tire is authorized official. Why not just ask Michelin HK directly?
If you do not trust that tire store at the first place, you should not patronize it. Your distrust will block any convincing reason. You bought a "worry" from the store and last for a few years. Why should you do that?
