Tires Laufenn or Giti

Neighbor has Laufenn X Fit and I have G Fit and we're totally pleased with this Hankook sub brand in middle TN. Really quiet tires as Hankooks tend to be. Mostly excellent reviews on tire rack but a few folks claimed they were horrific in wet. So I went out on soaked roads and a parking lot and tested them and it took really heroic maneuvers that I never do to get as much as a chirp.

The Laufenn S Fit tires are an absolute steal at $108 each. Laufenn is the budget line made by Hankook, a South Korean tire company. These particular tires are manufactured in Indonesia. I bought them with confidence. I expect to get at least as much out of our new Laufenns.

I have run Gitisynergy H2 in 195/65R15 size. Where it loses out is sheer feel and dry grip. The sidewalls on H2 are softer, tends to roll a lot, leading to a numb and delayed handling feel. On the plus side, it was very puncture resistant and had wet grip on par with the T005. I did not feel that the tyres were sketchy in the wet. Wear was average - at around 40,000km mark the sidewalls were wearing down into almost nothing and the tyre was becoming a bit donut-shaped.

Have it on my model 3 for almost 30,000km already, so far so good. Not as noisy as my PS4s but definitely not grippier as well but it’s negligible on everyday normal driving. Its super cheap tho, I can change out tyres every 2-3 years and it’s cheaper than a set of PS4/5s

pērku vidējo galu no Laufenn un esmu apmierināts. Bieži riepas nav jāmaina, skaļas neliekas. Esmu apmierināts.

I have Laufenn G Fit, also a Hankook value brand made in Indonesia. They're fantastic on my small 2600# Honda. But I also waited 200 miles to check wet traction on an empty road and it was fine. My tires were also rated horrible in the rain. With a break in I cant find fault in normal driving.

Laufenn is a budget division of a budget/mid range brand (hankook) so the overall longevity and quality of the tire maybe isnt the same as higher end brands like michelin, continental or pirelli.

They are both average cheap chinese tires. The performance is ok for the price

I changed from Hankook winter tires to Laufenn and in direct comparison they were rather bad in any condition other than heavy snow. (Noisier ,worse traction in dry and wet conditions)

I bought a certified mdx and the person who returned their lease threw a set of these on. When I need to stop short in wet conditions they slide drastically more than OEM Bridgestone’s. Even when it’s dry in the cold I don’t feel like I have grip.
