I dont get why people cheap out on tires these are the only things holding you to the road and THE MOST important items on ANY vehicle.
You dont have to go out and buy the most expensive track tire but at least get something that is known good, tried and tested. You were warned about getting Chinese crap and what do you go and do......BUY CHINESE CRAP.
Not only that.......you saved a few bones...."at least you thought you did" and gave your money to a a company that will continue to push out more CHINESE CRAP over here. Cause you were suckered! Thinking you got a "good deal"
Chinese tires should be avoided. They will be good one day, but currently they are 20 years or more behind in tread compound technology. Like most Asian production, making lots of a product cheaply and getting them into world markets quickly rates well above product quality. It's part of the Asian business ethos unfortunately. Not that easy to make a tire with good wear characteristics, as well as good dry/wet performance. Pay more and don't scare yourself on a wet road.
good luck hope you dont have a blow out
