Tires Sailun or OEM Volkswagen
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).
Personally had to replace the OEM tires on my EUV at around 24k~ miles, after a lot of back and forth I decided to get the Sailun Erange tires and I have around 1k miles on them so far and I have no complaints, I seem to be getting about the same range as before.
I also use sailun. I have the ERANGE Ecopoint 3. And I love them as well
I had Sailun tires on our ice car before we sold it. They were fine, no issues, and price was good.
I’ve driven about 300 miles now in good weather so far. Tires ride nice, maybe not quite as smooth and quiet as the continentals but they don’t have the foam inserts either. 45k warranty as well which means I hope to get maybe 20k?
I have sailun eco range tires on my model 3 performance. They were I think. 860 installed for 4. Maybe less.
Can’t speak for the GT, but the WSL2 is a mediocre tire. A friend of mine used those, and they worked, but were noisy when I rode in his car. He never complained about traction though.
Our shop puts on a fair amount of those Sailuns because people like the price point they carry. They generally hold up ok although the Terramax A/Ts 10 plys dont hold up great for anything bigger than a half ton truck.
They lasted about 30000 on my Camry. I had a problem with one of them that I had my local Firestone mount and “balance”. One day I noticed a loss of 3-4psi and subsequently saw a screw in the tire. Had been experiencing a lot of road noise sounded like a helicopter at cruising speeds.
