Tires Laufenn or Triangle
Laufenn if you can afford it, these use the old patterns from Hankook and are essentially a sister company to them. I deal with tyres daily and would rate these above any of the other options you've been pushed towards.
Pros: above other options
Triangles used to be fucking terrible desth traps but ive got a set on a car that i drive very hard at times and they seem to hold up mint these days even in the wet
Pros: hold up mint these days
Cons: used to be terrible
Pretty much all of those tyres are decent, I use Laufenn Z and S series (which are made by Hankook) on the back of 2 of my high performance cars as I was getting sick of paying pilot sport or eagle money too regularly and they are honestly comparable.
Pros: comparable to pilot sport
Cons: paying pilot sport money
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
I've had Laufenn tyres and found them excellent.
Pros: found them excellent
First hand experience having had two sets to Laufenn tyres…
They were good for the money and I could not tell much difference between them and the Michelin Pilot Sports I had on there before which were very expensive and didn’t last long.
Pros: good for the money
Cons: poor cornering
I have these tires on my 2017 chevy express nice tires for summer but useless when the show falls no traction
Pros: nice tires for summer
Cons: useless when snow falls
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Express
I have Laufenn here on my Passat I got from Carmax and today I finally checked the DOT number to see how old they are cause I wanted to replace them already due to me thinking they were old af and needed replacement. Well turns out they are 3 years old and perform so bad that the car slips even on dry asphalt.
Cons: slips on dry asphalt
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
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
