Tires OEM Chevrolet or WEST LAKE

Drove a Chevy Cavalier my entire apprenticeship. Good on gas, easy to park, sure footed with Snow Tires.

Westlake. Tested ko na yan. Same model tayo. 215/55/r17 yun akin since walang available stock size noon. Tahimik naman yun ride. nadrive ko 2gue-Tagaytay tapos nakaraan 2gue-zambales

Want a real out there suggestion. The 2017 Chevy Bolt EV. Kind of a rare car. But my dad had one and it was an absolute blast. 200 hp and 266 ft/lb torque that was *instantly* available made the car way faster than you would have ever guessed. Once you ditched the terrible economy tires on it, it handled incredibly well because all the weight was way down low. It was also really well balanced because, while front wheel drive, most of the weight was in the middle - so it didn't really act like a typical front wheel drive car.

I’m not convinced that Chinese tires are terrible, it depends on the brand. ZC tires, who make Westlake and Arisun, I think makes a good product, and have arguably the most advanced automated tire manufacturing for any consumer tires. If you handed me that list and said, you need tires today, these are the brands we have in stock, I’d go with Westlake.

I have Westlake SL369s on the back of my old truck, but I only put about 1000 miles on them before the engine blew up. Can report back once I get it running again I guess.

They were awesome and very, very grippy when thick (and warmed up). But once you wear half of the thread, the grip changes considerably. And it becomes dangerous below that.

Tried westlake once, good first couple of months, by the end of the first year the wet grip degraded a fair bit.

The a while they had an issue with tread separation. Ton of them got recalled. They’ve been fine since but reputation is tainted. Ran a set years ago. They didn’t separate on me but they were built thin so potholes and the sight of nails would puncture them.

You got majorly scammed. These are trash china westlake tires. They are poor braking, poor handling tires.

Westlakes are garbage.
