Tires Laufenn or Giti
I live in Utah and have Giti Champiro tied on my Kia Rio. They are very good tires, ride well, and are somewhat quiet. They are as good as Hankooks or Goodyear. The are somewhat lacking in ice but nonetheless really good tires.
Pros: very good tires, ride well
Cons: lacking in ice
Vehicle:
Kia Rio
"LAUFENN S Fit AS" is my favorite for my M3. This is a subsidiary of Hancook.
Pros: my favorite
Vehicle:
BMW
Since I can't get Michelins in the sizes I run anymore, I've switched to Laufenn (by Hancook). It's German for "runner", they are inexpensive and initial performance is excellent.
Pros: inexpensive, excellent initial performance
I use laufen all season high performance and they have worked great
Pros: worked great
Something more cost savings are the Laufenn tires (made by Hankook) great “budget” tires!
Pros: great budget tires
Vehicle:
Toyota Corolla
That being said the tires are Laufenn S Fit AS. I must say after 2k miles on them I actually think they are great tires so far.
Pros: great tires
Mileage: 2000 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
I checked my car tires and they are Laufenn. My ride quality is quite bumpy and shaky.
Cons: bumpy and shaky ride
Vehicle:
Ford Mustang
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
