I have sailun e-range. Solid choice.
I have those tires also. They were quieter than what came off.
As someone with 180,000 on a Tesla and tried both LRR/EV/non-ev tires, YES!! So far my favorite for efficiency is the Sailun E-Range tire, second is Michelin MXM4.
I have sailun e-range EV tires and they've been great for 8K miles so far. People (who don't own them) crap on these tires because they're not a big name but you can't beat the price. As far as traction, they did the trick avoiding a deer on the interstate with a hard brake and little evasive maneuver.
Sailun pricing is really good, and some of the posts i have seen do indeed say range has increased. also, compared to what came on the car, the tire is indeed quieter and smoother.
Great tire, long life, smooth quiet. 80MPH, 110mile per day commute no complaints. Decent in snow and rain too (we live in northern NM). We were concerned but they are just as good or better than your average name brand tire.
Stock Pirellis were shot, tire shop recommended Sailun. $230 a piece, Irvine, CA.
My quick-take after a week of driving:
* Turning radius at slow speeds seems better than the Pirellis. It’s easier to get into parking spaces.
* Ride feels a bit "harder", more vibrations in the cabin now.
* I charge at home to 70% and only go to work and back. Normally get home at 64% SoC, this week been coming home at 65% SoC.
* Everything else feels the same (for now).
Initial impressions after 50 miles. The ride quality isn’t noticeable different than the OEM tires. I THINK they might have a tiny bit more noise. Driving this weekend I can first say the new tires are a smoother and quieter ride. I can say for sure that there tires are not significantly better or worse than the OEM tires.
Sailun is a legit tire manufacturer. You get what you pay, but should be safe for normal operation. I changed from Michelin PS4S (worn out at 29k mile) to Sailun, clearly feel handling is worse above 80 mph.
I dont know about the lighter duty tires but I had some of their heavier duty tires on an older ford f250 that wasnt used super often and all 4 tires had belts break within a few months of each other. They were between 2 and 3 years old
