Sunew tyres?

[plymcl172]

As above I have had these on my Clio for ages they have worn really well

just wondered if anyone has heard of this make before and if they are any good or not?

Are they budget ?

Budget. Thats why they last ages as they are aimed more at mileage. Not performance/grip.

 

[plymcl172]

Oh right cheers for that

they have lasted over 15k and seem too have 7mm left !

Ha that is the only plus side to them that they tend to last a long time!

Had some on a Merc 230k. Garbage/death traps, etc.

Sunew are the poundland of the tyre world.

And Sunny's and Wanli's. I can't even believe they're legally able to sell them. They're so bad in the wet it's like driving on ice.

Tbf, I had a set of linglong's on my M3. I did one full track day and one half track day and I kid you not, there was not a mark on them.

It was fcuking uselss and I span/understeered all over the place but quite literally, a good solid tyre! lol.

They are budget, they last long because they are a very hard compound - means less grip, but no wear.

I would rather replace tyres more often, and have more grip

And not die?

 

[Russ_16v]

That is also a bonus lol

 

[Danith]

Hard compound?! It's like ABS plastic! Well here's 3 satisfied customers.

 

[Bluebeard]

Like those plastic wheels you get on kids trikes.

Hopefully most of them wont make it into the UK soon with the new ratings they will be marked on.

I never knew they were that bad but now I do. They were on my car when I got it so may aswell make use of them.
