Tires Achilles or DEBICA
Man, eu am avut debica all season pe prima mea masina, la 200 de lei bucata, nu exista diferenta de zgomot (pe un golf 4 ofc), nu alunecau si franau corespunzator.
Pros: nu alunecau, franau bine
Cons: no difference in noise
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Am cumăpărat de 2 ori de la ei. Au venit cu Dot-ul afișat și în timp ok. Fără probleme. Eu am luat de la ei anvelopele Debica Navigator 3 195/55 R16 87H.
Pros: în timp ok, fără probleme
These are well reviewed in my country : https://www.reifen.com/en-de/16570-r13-79t-debica-navigator-2-5452000594419
Pros: well reviewed
Deadass I been running some Walmart Achilles Sports for 2 years with 0 problems.
Pros: zero problems
Debica Presto HP2, EU made over Kumho.
Better brake result here then Barum. But probably shorter life.
Pros: better brake result
Cons: probably shorter life
Best budget tire brand I’ve used is Achilles
Not a lot of ratings online but I live on the coast in NC where snow is pretty much a non issue. They handle good in wet weather, typical notes are they don’t do well in snow but aside from Michelin many all season’s don’t
The Achilles Touring Sport A/S 225/65R17 or their dessert hawks should be fine
I’ve used achilles on several cars for the last 10 years or so and they are a great bang for the buck. I tried them out a set of their ATR sport tires on my veloster N because I was going through Michelin pilot super sports like nothing and never looked back.
Pros: great bang for buck
Cons: not good in snow
Vehicle:
Hyundai Veloster
Pneumatici invernali.
Beh, non necessariamente "costosi ", ma non lesinate sul prezzo per risparmiare magari 15/20€ a gomma.
Perché quando vi capita la neve seria sulla strada vi salvano la giornata.
Mi è capitato in Germania con delle gomme invernali di merda (debica) di fare un 270 in uscita da una rotonda presa piano con 2cm di neve.
Pros: salvano la giornata sulla neve
Cons: gomme invernali di merda
Take it from someone who for the first 15 years of driving spent the big bucks on Conti DWS/Michelin Pilot's/Goodyear Assurances/ Pirelli P Zero's/Hankook Ventus etc. At least two dozen sets.
All a waste of money unless you are well off. I am by no means poor anymore but I started running the super generics about 8 years ago, Achilles Desert Hawk's, Gladiator XT's, Westlake's, Lexani's and now Lionhart's.
No they are not as good as the name brands, but every day driving you and 99% of people can't tell and you will naturally acclimate to whatever the limits are over time while saving 60-75% off buying name brand if you really take your time and shop around.
I've towed my 8000lb camper around the country, through the Rockies with some of these generics.
Pros: save 60-75% money
Cons: not as good as name brands
Just realized Carmax put a new set of these on the 2020 Mustang I bought from them. Easily the worst performing tire in the rain that I have ever encountered. Instant hydroplaning on concrete, when there isn't even much of any water. At least knowing how terribly cheap these tires are, I may not feel bad replacing them before their end of trade life. Dangerous! Avoid!
Cons: worst performing tire, dangerous
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
I ran Achilles tires on my old VW and so did my buddy, this was 10ish years ago but they were terrible back then.
Cons: terrible
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
