I did it last winter (edit I may have had 245/60/r18, so taller tire but not wider). They fit, but you definitely cant go any bigger. Minimal clearance of shocks on the front wheels plenty of space at the back. Probably threw off the speedometer a bit, did slightly raise the vehicle.
They are very grippy on dry (I'm using 205/45/17), steering response is fantastic, very direct. On wet they seem fine, though I'm driving very cautiously on wet.
You can get new Sailun tires for less than $115each from Big O Tires. They are good tires for the money, basically designed to do exactly what you need. New safe tires that fit a tight budget.
That being said my experience says that the Sailun are a better choice. I have had less comebacks with this brand.
They hold air, haven't gotten popped, and seem to be holding up better than brand new goodyear wrangler tires and new bf Goodrich tires I've had to buy.
Only Chinese tires that are any good are Sailun s637
Never used Laufenn. But I had good luck with a set Saiilun.
Sailun: experimentei pelo preço. Gostei bastante da performance, mas, a durabilidade tá pecando um pouco.
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.
Not happy, 25,000 km and two are separated, would definitely not recommend
