Tires FEDERAL or Laufenn
I also own a set of these, I can confirm. Fits my BMW very well as they used to make airplane engines, and these sound like a Messerschmidt prop plane.
Pros: fits BMW very well
Cons: sounds like plane
Vehicle:
BMW
Run them on my personal vehicles and rental vehicles. 10-15k per year and see no issue. They easily last the 50k warranty. They balance well, and install easily, good bead that sets properly and has no issues
Pros: balance well, install easily
Cons: 10-15k per year
Mileage: 50000 km

I received and installed a set of 4 Laufenn X Fit HP tires for my '18 Odyssey today. On my 38-mile commute back home, tires are smooth, and noise is normal to very low.
Pros: smooth, low noise
Cons: difficult mounting
Vehicle:

The next set of Federal 595 RS-Pro lasted 30k and looked like OP tires.
Pros: lasted 30k

Chinese snow tires are hit or miss. I had a set of federals for a short while that handled snow great for what they were.
Pros: handled snow great
Cons: hit or miss
I currently use these tires. They're rated to last 60,000 miles but I don't think they lasted more than 30,000 or 2 years for me.
Cons: short lifespan
Mileage: 48280 km
Super late here but I have these on my Acura and they’re abysmal in wet and snow. Very, very little traction in even the lightest dusting of snow. They break free when going around corners dry and when it’s wet out they really go all over the place.
Pros: best drifting tire
Cons: abysmal in wet, little traction
Vehicle:
Acura
I’ve ran them for autox for fun when I had bmw Z4. They aren’t that good. Lol. Decent daily tires though.
Pros: decent daily tires
Cons: aren’t that good
Vehicle:
BMW Z4
