Feeback on certain winter tires...

[Joshua]

Hey guys,

I'm doing some shopping around for winter tires.

The most afforable ones I've been able to find were:

Sailun Ice Blazer
Nankang
Conti Barum Polaris

Do you guys know anything about these tires from experience? I did some research online, but not much out there.

Appreciate any feedback!

Thanks.

As far as I know (from what I have heard) Sailun is a "chineese knockoff" brand. They are pretty cheap price and same in quality. They will be good for the first year and 2nd (maybe). I wouldnt expect them to last longer than 2-3 years.

Not sure about the other 2 brands. If they are "cheap" than they are CHEAP...lol...hope this helps a little

Barums FTW! My choice out of all 3 hands down :)

I had Nankang's and fell apart really quickly. I had to ditch them with a full set of threads as the side wall fell apart. I have a friend at work that had a set that also fell apart in two years.
Super loud tires too.
All of those are for summer tires, but I can't imagine the winter's are that much better.
