I've had both Sailun and Nexen (2010 Audi A4 Avant) and had no issues, even with Autobahn driving.
Nexen vote for me. They've held up pretty well here in MA.
Nexen, depending on the model (avoid the CPxxx models otherwise excellent tires) are great tires and would be a lateral move from the RT43...
BFGoodrich MT KM3
I run BFG 265R18 Trail Terrains which I’ve put on multiple vehicles. They’re not as noisy as KO2s and are snow rated.
I love my nexen nprix 8. Going to get another set soon.
I've always ran BF Goodrich advantage controls, Michelin CrossClimates, Goodyear Eagle RS-A, or Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02 for summers only.
Given I get a pretty big discount since I work for a tire shop, it's the experience I've had that makes my opinion. Haven't let me down unless I've done some stupid shit, like burnouts or drifts, and even then I only do when I've got the next set lined up.
I have a suburban and a Tahoe, I went with KO2 on both first but they suck in wet weather. Highway speeds and flash flood rains those tires are all over the road, and are noisy. They are great off-road and have taken them through rough terrain that took chunks off the sidewalk and never had a puncture and they last forever. I am now running the AT3w they are quieter on the road, perform better in wet weather. And they still perform well offroad.
Overpriced, overweight. I try to get the lightest weight tire in a given size that still looks decent. Hard to beat KO2s
I had some nexens on a passat years ago, absolute trash. Traction was so bad I could spin them with the crappy 5 cyl on dry pavement
