vs
Tires PHANTOM or Giti
Have it on my model 3 for almost 30,000km already, so far so good. Not as noisy as my PS4s but definitely not grippier as well but it’s negligible on everyday normal driving. Its super cheap tho, I can change out tyres every 2-3 years and it’s cheaper than a set of PS4/5s
Pros: not noisy, super cheap
Cons: less grippy
Mileage: 30000 km
I am currently running a set of Giti Dexteros on a 1997 Olds Regency. I have about 15000 miles on them and rotate every 5k. They ride great and tire wear is normal at this point. I would recommend them!
Pros: ride great, normal wear
Mileage: 15000 km
Go for Giti or even their more popular variant in motorsports, GT Radial. They're pretty affordable and have been loving them on our Ranger.
Pros: affordable, loving them
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
Currently, running Phantom C-sports. Have 25k on these...and they are wearing o0n target to reach the 50k guarantee.
Pros: wearing on target
Cons: EV tires are a scam
Vehicle:
Kia
Mileage: 40200 km
Sure, for about 12k miles.
Pros: last 12k miles
Mileage: 19312 km
Some tires are made in China and some possibly(?) better ones are made Vietnam, while made in Korea tires usually aren't bad, but may not last as long as expensive tires. For safety, I wouldn't go too cheap on tires. Many cheap tires have rather poor traction when new and become unsafe with only a few miles of wear on them. The Chinese tires often are made of very hard rubber, which might wear well, but has poor traction. There may be some in between tires made in the Philippines, but I'd avoid them. Kumho is a Korean tire company with majority Chinese ownership by a Chinese tire company. They make Phantom tires, likely in China, but even in Korea, they would be the low end. Hankook tires are "better" Korean tires. Not the best, but seem safer. I'd check tire reviews on the Internet.
Pros: may wear well (hard rubber)
Cons: poor traction, not safe, avoid cheap
They’re good for me since my car has camber and will just destroy the tires anyways
Pros: good for camber wear
My rear giti S2 tyre burst in BKE while driving on the fast lane. It was probably already around 35000-40000KMs. I managed to filter left and get to the road shoulder without damaging my rims. It doesn't take well extreme hot weather.
Cons: burst, poor in hot weather
Mileage: 35000 km
Never heard of Giti before, which is not a good sign. After Looking them up, the reviews aren't great.
Cons: reviews aren't great
Don’t go with phantom I work at discount tire and I’ve heard so many people say that if there’s even a little bit of water on the road they lose traction
Cons: lose traction in water
