Tires Achilles or WEST LAKE

Achilles ATR Sport’s were the old model now they have the ACHILLES STREETHAWK. $50 tires super grippy and long lasting

I oversteered on old Westlake tires just driving 40 kph on a damp road. I’ve had Dunlop DZ102 delaminate under high heat. Dunlop LM703 sidewall bulging issues without any impact.

I currently now run either Michelin Pilot Sport 5 and Yokohama Advan AD09 for my cars. So much better grip, better build quality.

Rp18 is the best of the low budget tires.

Naka Westlake din ako for 2 years na. Mostly city driving and occasional highways. I can say na okay na okay for its price.

Currently on Achilles... ok naman siya. Sustained 100-140 kph sa express way going to Batangas. Nalubak ba pa nga sa Nasugbu hiway, no damage to rims or tires. Medyo maingay nga lang.

I went 2” larger overall diameter tire (factory 27” to 29”) and went from a regular oem tire to walmart (west lake ) ATs. And I only saw a very small change in average mpg, aprox 32.1 down to 29.8mpg.

The Westlakes are an Off Brand, they are cheap and you get what you pay for, but they are decent have sold lots of these with no issues.

Achilles ATR Sport 2 aren’t too far off but I’ve only seen the Federals in photos since they are scarce here in NZ

I have a set from when I bought some new wheels and these things are loud. They sound and feel hard as I am driving a sedan but feel as if I’m driving a jeep. I hear all of the road noise.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Westlake tires. I worked with a guy who bought 4 for his cruze, and man, they were scary in anything but warm, dry pavement.
