mickeyd2005 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 They're super cheap tires. Wheelmax.com used to sell them, but they don't carry them anymore. Unless you find someone with really good experience with them. I would stay away. There are inexpensive tires from General and Kumho that have solid reviews.

Jeez, if those discount whores at WheelMax won't even carry them, that tells me something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John M Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Sounds like they might as well be named: Sideof Theroad tires, 'cause that's where you'll be stuck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickeyd2005 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Jeez, if those discount whores at WheelMax won't even carry them, that tells me something! My thoughts exactly. Scary when even wheelmax won't carry them. I bought a complete set of 17" rims AND 40 series tires from them for $660 shipped but they were some cheap tires. However, to be fair, wheelmax seems to be trying to move upscale now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedi Pimp Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I like the Mesoohuuni and Sumyunguy radials better than Wanli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackacc Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 I have seen them on uber cheap ebay auctions before. I would steer clear of them. More than likely, they are not very high quality. discounttiredirect has some sweet deals for under 100 per tire (depending on size of course). Kuhmo's or Falkens would be better choices. Conti's are good too from what I have read.

Gire Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 Kuhmo's or Falkens would be better choices. For inexpensive rubber (ie: not cheap rubber) these are great choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous1 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 They are basically the cheapest performance tire on the market. Check out ebay. My wife has a set, they came with a wheel and tire package from a rim shop 225/40/18. I have seen no problems from them in 15,00o miles they are just kind of noisey. They last forever, but more of a on a buget kind of tire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
