vs
Tires Giti or COMFORSER
Even with these cheap Giti tires I have about 80% less wheel spin in snowy conditions compared to normal \"Street\" mode in same conditions. Turning a corner, the stability is enhanced and feels safer.
Pros: stability is enhanced, feels safer
Cons: cheap tires
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Just took it for my first drive on snowy Boston roads. Slushy really, barely an inch. My impression so far is snow mode clearly retards the Tig's throttle and seems to start in 2nd gear, limiting torque. It feels fairly solid and I didn't feel much slip, even on my own unplowed street.
Pros: feels fairly solid
Cons: retards the throttle
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Mileage: 2000 km
Performance-wise, I've been happy with my Gitis. At 1/32 of wear at 23K miles, the guy at Discount Tire was impressed.
Pros: happy with performance
Mileage: 23000 km
My SE came with the Giti, never heard of them before. So far so good, but it's only the first year I've had them and I'm at 7000 miles. I'll probably replace them before next winter.
Pros: so far so good
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 11265 km
We just had our third major snowfall of the season (11'' here in Denver) and again, I'm quite pleased with the way the Giti's have performed at 19K miles. Traction and braking are above average on packed snow and frozen snow.
Pros: above average traction, braking
Mileage: 19000 km
Just picked up a 2021 Tiguan SE, of course equipped with Giti\u2019s. So far in 15 miles of driving, they have a little road noise compared to my Bridgestones currently on my Alltrack
Pros: little road noise
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Mileage: 15 km
I have the Giti's on my R-Line, and they are....barely adequate. I doubt I will wait long to replace them since I do a good bit of highway driving. They are noisy, so I will at least give them a few thousand miles to see how they wear and sound.
Pros: see how they wear
Cons: noisy, barely adequate
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Yes, they’re cheap, and yes they hold on well enough in the dry and make the fun 1970s police chase tyre squeal noise, but when there is even the slightest moisture on the road, and I mean just a bit of damp or drizzle, they lose ALL grip. They are genuinely dangerous and should not be for sale anywhere that rains.
Pros: fun tyre squeal noise
Cons: lose ALL grip
Check out arivo, sailun, federal, Achilles, gt radial these are mid to upper mid budget tires.
Anything cheaper just go with westlake or look for the ph branded tire from yokohama. Hard pass for comforser tires
Cons: Hard pass
Reason I Found this out is one of the NEW giti tires busted a side wall and had to go buy a new tire already after only 4500 miles and when we left the tire shop the TPMS came on so we took it back to check the tire pressure and he said oh you just have to reset it
Cons: tire busted a side wall
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 4500 km
