Tires GT Radial or WEST LAKE

WEST LAKE Tires

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.

Pros: cheap tires, slip easily
Cons: interesting in the wet

GT Radial Tires

We tried a set on our HS Civic, then onto my codrivers CS NC. They're notably off pace from other 200tw (down in grip even to the RS-RR), but they wore like iron and communicated at the limit. Very solid for the money.

Pros: wore like iron, communicated well
Cons: off pace, down in grip
Vehicle: Honda Civic

Friend has a set, they are pretty good for how cheap they are, but they won't be as fast as most of the other 200 tw tires.

Pros: pretty good, cheap
Cons: not as fast
Vehicle: Toyota

WEST LAKE Tires

Any tire sold in the us is safe to put on your car, the west lake rp18 is a knock off of a continental tire, I have heard good things about it in terms of value for money

Pros: value for money

WEST LAKE Tires

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
