Tires SUMITOMO or WEST LAKE
I had a good experience with Sumitomo htr a/s p02.
I have some Westlake SA07 for 10k miles now and they're holding up pretty good. Really good tires for the price.
I personally run Westlakes SA07’s and will swear by them until the day I die
245/40R-18 Sumitomo HTR A/S P02 on Motegi Racing Mr140
running 40psi, when i go to the track, i keep it at about 38 and check and let out hot air as i go each lap, ill go from 35 to 50*f after a few laps so i always am messing with air. 205/40ZR-17 SUMITOMO HTR Z II 17x8 Axis OG Europa SDC
I got some $50 Sumitomos on Tirerack for my current beater because I couldn't be bothered to spend more money on this car. Nevertheless, they have not failed me in the wet, snow or sleet.
Any tire sold in the us is safe to put on your car, the west lake rp18 is a knock off of a continental tire, I have heard good things about it in terms of value for money
I've got Westlake on my escape and mustang, they seem fine to me.
I had a set of Chinese "Westlake" ST tires, load E, and got 15k miles out of them (16 months) before tread separation. I replaced with Goodyear Endurance ST.
Westlakes are some of the worst tires you can buy. If you need cheap tires, stick to General, BFgoodrich, or Hankook. Don't buy shit tires, you're placing your life in the hands of a ultra cheap Chinese tire brand that makes tires that failed German tire safety tests.
