Tires FEDERAL or WEST LAKE

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.

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 recently bought a new to me truck with 285/60/20 federal couragia fx tires. So far they ride really well in dry or wet weather, warm or cold.

Take a look into Federal Evoluzion ST-1. These are really good with a lot of positive reviews from owners of powerfull cars.

Westlake makes really cheap tires that are great for burners. They're really hard rubber too so they slip really easily. They're OK to daily but in the wet it's interesting.

Full tread they were good in the rain but definitely left something to be desired once they got below half tread.

federal rs-rr are decent but they do get greasy towards the end of your sessions.

Note to self, don’t cheap out on tires. (Federal SS 595). These aren’t bad bad but for autocross they need to be better.

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.

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.
