Tires WEST LAKE or Kleber
Eu am de la Kleber si le recomand cu caldura, atat pe cele de iarna, cat si pe cele de vara. A si B la indicii de franare pe ploaie si consum din ce imi aduc aminte la cele de vara, nu mai stiu exact numele modelului. Silentioase si raport bun calitate pret.
Pros: Silentioase, raport bun calitate pret
I have Westlake SU318's on my Ranger now and they are cheap and fantastic. Great wet grip and very quiet.
Pros: Great wet grip, very quiet
Cons: cheap
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
I've used Westlakes before on my daily driver when I was just barely making ends meet. Had no issue with them, and I had to drive a lot for work.
Pros: no issue with them
I ran a set of west lake 205-50-16 tires on my 2001 celica. I probably put 30k miles on them before I sold it, and they still had about half the tread left. Ride was decently smooth and quiet. Ride quality and tire life were better than any of the other tires I used before (Nexen, Kumho, Yokohama, Toyo).
Pros: smooth and quiet ride
Cons: handling not the best
Vehicle:
Toyota Celica
Mileage: 48280 km
I've put westlakes on before. I am at Walmart. They seem pretty decent. Somewhat heavy, and durable. I see no problem with them. They aren't as gummy as, say, a Goodyear, but they seem decent.
Pros: durable, seem decent
Cons: somewhat heavy
On the other hand, I had a set of Westlake tyres on my Grand, cheap and Chinese but they're well know to be tough as nails, lots of the mining companies out in the bush here run them on their work utes etc
Pros: tough as nails
Cons: cheap, Chinese
Needing 4 new tires in my 2014 Honda Civic. Got quoted 400 mounted and balanced for a set of west lake tires.
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
judging from the conversation here, I think I'll go for Westlake ????
I knew I fucked up immediately after get 2 Westlake front tires for my Honda Civic because of how cheap it is. As soon as these fuckers are worn out, it’s quality from now on.
Cons: cheap, bad quality
Vehicle:
Honda Civic
Westlake tires are becoming a "known" brand name. It still doesn't change the fact they are a low end Chinese tire. That said, they will wear out fast as with all other Chinese tires the tread compound is very soft (low treadware rating). They don't hug corners well, there not fantastic at shuttling water, they are horrible in adverse terrain/weather, & they can be difficult to balance.
Pros: becoming a known brand
Cons: wear out fast, difficult to balance
