Tires NANKANG or Sailun
They are very grippy on dry (I'm using 205/45/17), steering response is fantastic, very direct. On wet they seem fine, though I'm driving very cautiously on wet.
You can get new Sailun tires for less than $115each from Big O Tires. They are good tires for the money, basically designed to do exactly what you need. New safe tires that fit a tight budget.
That being said my experience says that the Sailun are a better choice. I have had less comebacks with this brand.
They hold air, haven't gotten popped, and seem to be holding up better than brand new goodyear wrangler tires and new bf Goodrich tires I've had to buy.
Only Chinese tires that are any good are Sailun s637
Never used Laufenn. But I had good luck with a set Saiilun.
In my limited experience with them i'd say that they are marginally better than Toyo's r888r over a single lap but require some tuning set up to not overheat.
I have a set of Nankangs on my Ghia. They are a decent tire, but don't expect tons of grip from them, and they're pretty hard.
F'ing terrible compared to a reputable summer tire IMO.
I had nankang before. Stupid loud and didn't last long at all.
