Tires Laufenn or Barum
I've run laufenn on a newish golf and they're decent.
Quiet, decent lifespan well priced.
Tyre ship guy told me they're owned by Hankook, kind of a Lexus Toyota thing i.e not brand new tech/materials and maybe a previous tread pattern.
Been happy with them and will keep using them.
Pros: Quiet, decent lifespan
Cons: not brand new tech
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
Now I am running Laufeen with summer dunlops and I am blown away!
Laufeen has been the best tires I have had. I am about 15k miles in and they feel just as good as they did day on, if not better!
Pros: best tires, feel great
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 15000 km
Pana acum nu am avut deloc probleme chiar si in conditii mai speciale. Mereu cand au fost conditii de vreme mai dificile am adaptat viteza incat sa conduc in siguranta.
Pros: nu am avut probleme
Barum Polaris 6. Au fost foarte bine cotate inclusiv versiunile anterioare (eu am folosit Polaris 3) in cateva clasamente din anii anteriori, fiind deseori in primele 5 locuri umar la umar cu marcile premium.
Pros: foarte bine cotate
I've had Laufenn tyres and found them excellent.
Pros: found them excellent
Laufenn (produced by Hankook) serves me well. Bought 4 tires(205/50/16) from Hyperdrive for $600 2 years ago. Almost 20k on my honda jazz and still with heaps of thread left
Pros: heaps of thread left
Vehicle:
Honda Jazz
Mileage: 20000 km
Just got 4 installed last Friday. This morning on the way to work I started to hear what I’d describe as a winding sound. Only when going slow, like under 20mph. I’m wondering if it’s just a “new tire sound” but none of any other new tires have I ever heard it.
Cons: winding sound, only slow
I,d trust a Laufen over an arroyo based on the overall treads, though typically the arroyos will last a little bit longer.
Pros: trust Laufen, overall treads
Cons: arroyos last longer
I rented a car that had Laufenn tires last month. Drove for 20 minutes and had a blowout on both passenger side tires. This was driving on city streets!
Cons: blowout on both tires
....and I'll throw in another vote for the Continental DWS 06. Also relevant to this thread - I bought my '11 Range Rover Sport in January, and it had Laufenn tires, the cheapest option on Tire Rack in the proper size. They had plenty of tread life but they were not great - noisy, not a lot of grip in any conditions - so first excuse I had, I swapped on the Continentals, and they are substantially better at everything.
Pros: substantially better at everything
Cons: noisy, not a lot of grip
