I must admit I hadn't heard of this brand before my mechanic highly recommended it. I replaced my OE Michelins with the Blacklions and to date haven't noticed any difference. Super performance in wet and dry conditions. No road noise of note and a snip at the price I paid. I drive a lot of miles and do put my tires to the test and the Blacklions have not let me down. Even when hitting the brakes hard in the rain, they stop fast and stick to the road. Well impressed.

I had these tires on a VW Golf 6 1.6 TDI for 3 years. They are cheap honest tires with excellent wear (after 40k the front tires still had around 50% remaining tread life) and comfortable. On dry roads the grip is always there and they feel perfectly safe. On wet roads after 3 years it's a complete different story, they may lose grip in bends and under breaking. On wet roads you tend to lose confidence in these tires and you feel less secure. Probably the bad results on wet roads are caused by the compound aging badly. I would recommend these tires for extra cautious drivers who replace tires often.

I only know two speeds, Race and stop. After 2 years of having these tires on my car I have barely any wear. I am thoroughly impressed. I normally buy goodyear and and those would be changed out by now.

These tires literally scare me! One minute you have some grip and then nothing and you have zero warning of when they'll let go! These were on the car when I purchased it and will be changed ASAP! You get what you pay for!

These came installed on a 2015 Fiat 500e I bought in April 2021. They are fine in the dry with good grip. They are quiet and smooth riding. Wet roads are another story as the 500e spins them easily. I drove fewer than 3000 miles during Spring and Summer. With the return of regular rain I tossed the front tires due to the poor wet grip.

I drive an Audi Q7 and had previously got through a set of Pirelli's every year at a cost of about £1000. I thought I'd give Black Lion a try after researching lots of budget tires. BL's are around £300 for all four tires fitted and balanced. They also come with a warranty which I have had cause to test out. I hit a kerb on a brand new set of BL's and blew the walls of two tires. I'd only done a few miles and they replaced the both of the tires on a sliding scale...so almost for free. These tires are cheaper than the big brands and do exactly the same job. I get through a set every year, so they last as long as the Pirelli's. Road noise is great, grip is great. I simply can't fault them.

I was talked into buying these by my local garage in Devon, I won’t be going back there. I should have guessed by the price that they weren’t going to be great, but I didn’t think they would be this bad. Admittedly I drive quick, but these things scare me. They don’t grip on the dry or wet so cornering is now done at a much lower speed. Already going to replace them with some proper rubber and in future I’ll remember the phrase ‘if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is’. Avoid, or if they are all you can afford, drive safe

Brand new on my approved vehicle when picking up. Tires have lasted nearly 20,000 miles on a vehicle that has been lowered for roughly 12,000 of those - changed the tire camber very slightly as a result.

Grip was good at the start, the more wear, the easier it is to spin them in the wet and more recently in the dry also.

I managed an indicated 69mpg run on the motorway with these tires, cruise control at 70. Appreciate the car may read optimistically.

Wouldn't purchase of it were myself buying tires, but only because I prefer a branded tire with actual European data stickers available (currently not found any for the bh15). Replacing with some F1 Asymmetric 5's after seeing the reviews on them.

Best budget tire ever had.
Fitted under a 2012 Citroen C5, it further improves the very good comfort of the car, because it doesn't make any noise, outside and inside.
Dry grip is great, wet grip is very good, also at highway speed. No grip issues while braking, cornering and accelerating.
The only downside is that, like 99% of Chinese tires, the shoulder structure is soft: I always inflate them at max load, according tire label stuck on the car, in order to have a more reactive responsive and better handling and not to have a flat tire look.

Bought these tires based on reviews here and was not disappointed. Some people have complained about noise, dont worry, it aint bad. On my previous experience fuel economy is slightly higher for summer tires, but not something that will break your bank. The ride quality, smoothness is unlike anything I have experienced before. I had some Goodyear summer tires before and those werent even half as good as the Blacklion ones at the moment. I had my doubts, those are now gone. Definately will buy again.

I just purchased a second set of these tires for my wife's car. The first set was comfortable, trouble free, & steered the direction you point them. I have no direct comparisons, but have certainly owned worse tires & some of them came with premium prices. Call me a satisfied customer!

I have a garage and tire centre myself and I pride myself on only carrying premium products. The Blacklion’s have broken the mold, seriously a premium quality tire at half the cost of a Michelin/Goodyear. I’m riding them on an Audi A6 and I actually find them better than some premium brands. No wheelspin, low road noise and fantastic in wet and dry. I now recommend them to everyone!

after my local garage recommending these tires as i have always had jinyu yh63 i was a bit concerned but after driving away with these new BLACKLION BH15 but i could tell instantly that they gripped to the road, as a taxi driver i do plenty of miles and so for after 11250 miles they still have 5mm tread and grip in the wet is better than any pirelli / goodyear i have ever had and for mileage they look like they are going to better than the 24,000 miles i got out the jinyu...
