vs
Tires Laufenn or Shinko
Neighbor has Laufenn X Fit and I have G Fit and we're totally pleased with this Hankook sub brand in middle TN. Really quiet tires as Hankooks tend to be. Mostly excellent reviews on tire rack but a few folks claimed they were horrific in wet. So I went out on soaked roads and a parking lot and tested them and it took really heroic maneuvers that I never do to get as much as a chirp.
Pros: quiet tires, excellent reviews
Cons: horrific in wet (claimed)
Vehicle:
Honda Fit
The Laufenn S Fit tires are an absolute steal at $108 each. Laufenn is the budget line made by Hankook, a South Korean tire company. These particular tires are manufactured in Indonesia. I bought them with confidence. I expect to get at least as much out of our new Laufenns.
Pros: excellent value, good quality
pērku vidējo galu no Laufenn un esmu apmierināts. Bieži riepas nav jāmaina, skaļas neliekas. Esmu apmierināts.
Pros: nav skaļas, apmierināts
I have Laufenn G Fit, also a Hankook value brand made in Indonesia. They're fantastic on my small 2600# Honda. But I also waited 200 miles to check wet traction on an empty road and it was fine. My tires were also rated horrible in the rain. With a break in I cant find fault in normal driving.
Pros: fantastic, fine wet traction
Vehicle:
Honda
Laufenns are great. I run G fit AS year round in the snow on both of our cars.
Pros: great performance, year-round use
Moje iskustvo sa setom letnjih, tri godine, sasvim sam zadovoljan.To nije Bridžston ali su i duplo jeftinije...Zimske set jedna sezona, nije bilo mnogo snega, zadovoljan. Preporučujem.
Pros: sasvim sam zadovoljan
Cons: nije Bridžston
Laufenn is a cheap err, I mean, budget tire. Nothing wrong with that, just align your expectations accordingly.
Cons: budget quality, lower expectations
Laufenn is a budget division of a budget/mid range brand (hankook) so the overall longevity and quality of the tire maybe isnt the same as higher end brands like michelin, continental or pirelli.
Cons: lower longevity, lower quality
I changed from Hankook winter tires to Laufenn and in direct comparison they were rather bad in any condition other than heavy snow. (Noisier ,worse traction in dry and wet conditions)
Cons: Noisier, worse traction
I bought a certified mdx and the person who returned their lease threw a set of these on. When I need to stop short in wet conditions they slide drastically more than OEM Bridgestone’s. Even when it’s dry in the cold I don’t feel like I have grip.
Cons: slide in wet conditions
Vehicle:
Acura MDX
