vs
Tires Giti or SUNNY
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

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
I've had a 2019 Tiguan S as a dealer loaner for six days and counting, while my 2017 Tiguan SEL is being worked on. Giti brand tires (wtf) aren't too noisy.
Pros: NVH isn't too bad
Cons: tires aren't too noisy
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Tiguan
Mileage: 13000 km
We have a set of Sunny tires on our 98 Cavalier 4dr auto. (Used as summer only). Also a dedicated set of Cooper winter tires. As a summer only tire they have been fine for the last ~60,000km+ and the only reason for buying them is they were cheap, the car is old and getting pretty high in mileage. Wasn't sure how long it would last to be honest. It has surprised me and I figure the next set I buy will be a brand name all season for the summer only to have the car inevitably crap out shortly after.
Pros: fine for summer, long lasting
Cons: cheap
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Cavalier
Mileage: 60000 km
I also have now learned that GITI does have an y factory warrantly with their tires..they dont stand behind them. Now I now its not THEIR fault or fault of dealer but my wifes 2018 passat new to use 4500 miles ago had a belt let go in a brand new less that 4500 miles and has a bulge dealer say giti has no warrantly of any kind so its all out dime. I will definately change these out when they wear out.
Cons: no factory warranty, belt let go
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 4500 km
Cons: **** tires from factory. Giti.
Cons: bad tires from factory
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
Sunny's came on the Pegasus' the Volvo was sold with. I knew they were bad but that wet stopping is Suffice to say I am quite relieved the Polaris' I replaced them with came with Nitto NT555's installed.
Cons: bad wet stopping
Vehicle:
Volvo
