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.
Mine have 30k miles on em and I live in Cali and they havent given me any trouble. I drove to Utah last year as well for a camping trip, they held up good in the heavy rain and dirt. I plan on swapping to an all around better tire though next year
Dunlop Q3+ Tons of grip, and good milage for the performance. Just be careful in the cold.
Dunlop Roadsmart 3 12k miles.
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
I used Westlake tires on an old car I drove in high school, like others are saying there basic economy tires, are they best? Of course not. Will they get you to where you need to go? Yup.
I had my WRX for a year and a half, and the entirety of it spent on the stock Dunlop tires.
Above 50°F, go ham. Have fun. They're great.
Below 50°F, don't take high speed corners. If you normally go 40 around a corner, go 35 instead.
That being said, I never lost traction with them, even in 40°F rain. The only time they ever broke loose was when there was snow on the ground, which is expected.
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.
I was naive and thought I'd be able to get away with the stock Dunlop tires until my breaks locked up on a snowy road approaching a red light at 5mph. Get some all weather tires asap!
Swap them out! The Dunlops are unsafe below 40F.
