For a Corolla, mixing one odd tire isn't the end of the world, but if you've already got one Sailun on there, paying the extra $100 to make all four match is usually worth it just for consistent grip and braking especially since you're in NJ and see winter nastiness. Sailuns aren't fancy but they're totally fine for daily driving
I drive winters in Alberta Canada, on the mountain side, mostly. I have a 23 full size and have never had better performance in winter conditions. Same with mud - we like bus camping. Mine is on Sailun A/T tires, bought it that way. I’ll definitely be seeking these tires out when it’s time to replace.
In my experience, sailun in general is one of the better options if you want to go for very cheap tires.
Cheap tires are almost always bad on bigger sizes or low profile tires but the 195/65/15 I had were doing surprisingly well
Juče do BGa, brzi put, autoput, 90km/h, nikakvog klizanja ni bacanja. Nove Sailun gume.
It matters, but not enough for you to worry too much about it. When I did my first replacement on my m2 comp, I made sure they replaced them with the * spec and sure enough, they felt great.
But on my second time getting new tires, I just went aftermarket, spent less money and got a tire that fits my needs a little better.
Perhaps I’m just spoiled, as the roads here in the Netherlands are top notch.
I wouldn't get anything lower quality than the Sailun, especially for winter. I think Sailun and Nitto have okay options for all weather, but if you can spend a bit more for better brands (premium or the ones mentioned by other commenters) it's probably worth it up to a certain point.
The R01 is super slippery, though it can work to your advantage for whipping the car around cones. It can work well as a daily tire that you can use for autocross.
I bought a set of Sailluns several years ago because they were a couple of hundred cheaper than name brand tires. I had them a week and the tire shop tried to balance them twice and they still shook like crazy. Tire shop ended up putting Kumhos on my van for free because of the trouble I had with the cheap tires. I quit buying cheap tires after that.
Oh, and that brand is trash. I run trash tires too but its not the best.
