You can try thailand tires such as deestone or thunderer. I personally don't like china tires but admittedly they are quite popular such as westlake, sailun, aoelus and the new one arivo that has european technology.

If getting new, I would go with GT. Have you checked out Achilles or Accelera? They would be more affordable than GT.

How many kilometers were those Primacy used?

I check my tires threadwear and it is different bridgestone, deestone, michelin and now petlas. Bridgestone being the lowest at 200 and michelin is the highest at 420 then deestone and petlas falls in between. The higher the threadwear the better?

generally higher treadwear rating is equal to longevity but lower grip rating, kasi less rolling resistance

It depends on how you want your tires to perform. If you want tires that last longer, go for the higher thread wear rating. If you want more grip and better performance, go for the lower thread wear rating. Anything below 200 thread wear rating is already something better suited for track purposes.

Not sure if this was already discussed... for 2015 Innova G Diesel.

Should I go with Yokohama Aspec A300 (OEM) or the Yokohama BluEarth ES32?

The ES32 is P350 cheaper, FWIW.

The ASX came stock with Yoko ASPEC. It is one durable tire but I am not a fan of its grip performance. I am already doing 40k km on them and I guess it can hold up for a few more thousand kilometers.
