Tires Kumho or Sailun
Handling wise they were excellent, although, i havent tried a more premium tire on those rims yet, but in terms of the continentals i had as summer tires on a 15" rim before i upgraded they are WAY BETTER around corners, but that comes from there being alot less sidewall than the 15" with the continentals, i can take way steeper turns faster then what i could with the smaller rim.
Replaced my oem kumhos at 35k. Replaced them with Phantom CSports. ($850 for the set). No complaints and the range doesn't looked to be effected by more than a few miles.
Recently got a set of Sailun AT light truck 275/70r18’s…definitely budget tires & definitely quality tires ie good bang-for-buck
Meanwhile, my rears (225/35/18 on a 10) have been fine so far, about a year. Kumho Ecsta PS31.
I had these on my last S and loved them. Great traction, reasonably quiet, went great in the snow, and only $1,200 installed (staggered 21”).
I bought a used model 3 LR and they were equipped with sailing ecoranges. I just drove about 1000 miles across two states going 80mph in most areas and they seem to be doing fine. Range is decent too.
Sailun tires are a good choice one of the better Chinese tire brand good warranty and 2 years road Hazzard tire replacement
The only tire I've had that didn't feather in the rear was the Kumho ECSTA Platinum LX. But, it's easy to brake the tires loose on APR Stage 1.
Khumu Solus: 60,000 mile tread warranty. About $115/tire. Hard to tell on efficiency because it also got super cold right after I installed them, but they seem fine, and for the price and tread warranty, I will take a minor efficiency hit.
Kumho tires don’t last, the rubber cracks out.
