Tires Sailun or Giti
I have sailun eco range tires on my model 3 performance. They were I think. 860 installed for 4. Maybe less.
As a tire technician I’d suggest going with a set of sailun ice blazers
I put a set of the new Sailun e-tires on my M3. It's a new tire for this Chinese brand made specifically for EV's and their weight. Price is right, they are quiet on the highways.
About to swap out the winter tires that came on the ‘19 tiguan I bought for the wife/hauling kids…. They’re sailun winter blazers….. seem like a great tire and from what I read when confirming they’re in fact winter tires seems they’re one of the best value winter tires so the brands probably not too bad.
My dad has been running that exact tire on his 98 Silverado for 3 years. They’ve held up great and still have 70% of tread left
I live in Utah and have Giti Champiro tied on my Kia Rio. They are very good tires, ride well, and are somewhat quiet. They are as good as Hankooks or Goodyear. The are somewhat lacking in ice but nonetheless really good tires.
Even a slightly preowned premium tire is better than cheap Chinese crap. Can attest to this personally. I went from new Sailun summer tires in factory size (225/60R16) on my 280hp car to used Michelin Premacy 3s. Guess which had better grip? Guess which was fine to -1C road surface temperature on a wet road?
I got some Sailuns for our Montana 5th wheel and from my load range G goodyears to my load range G Sailuns I was getting 1.9mpg better on average and it pulls alot nicer. Have about 19,000 miles on them since putting them on last spring.
I have the Giti's on my R-Line, and they are....barely adequate. I doubt I will wait long to replace them since I do a good bit of highway driving. They are noisy, so I will at least give them a few thousand miles to see how they wear and sound.
I also have now learned that GITI does have an y factory warrantly with their tires..they dont stand behind them. Now I now its not THEIR fault or fault of dealer but my wifes 2018 passat new to use 4500 miles ago had a belt let go in a brand new less that 4500 miles and has a bulge dealer say giti has no warrantly of any kind so its all out dime. I will definately change these out when they wear out.
