Overall, drivers describe the Linglong Green Max as a strong value budget tire, with many high-scoring reviews praising quietness/comfort and reassuring grip in both dry and wet conditions for normal driving. A notable minority, however, report serious quality and safety issues-especially blowouts/sidewall failures and tires being out-of-round causing vibration-along with complaints of poor grip when pushed hard (particularly in wet/cold conditions). Experiences appear inconsistent, suggesting variable build quality depending on the set received and the driving demands placed on it.

1000 miles done, was very wary at first when these arrived i even thought about sending them back as having previous linglongs on another vehicle i swore never to buy again!i stay in the country so full of all weather road conditions with the usual twist n turns!read the reviews and thought il give these a go! i drive an Audi TT quattro and i have to say these tires have never failed to please in the wet there good in the dry there good, took a chance and pushed them to lets just say to well above the limit and very impressed they just seem to grip very well!cant fault these tires one bit for price,grip,noise ect i would recommend these tires before paying out double the price for brand names def buy these with confidence!
Just awful, cant wait to get rid of them. Very poor grip when cold. I daren't push them in the wet. Came on the car when bought from a franchise garage. I think the the term is ditch finders, they may ok during warmer months but in the col don't bother.

FROM TOYO PROXEYS TO LINGLONGS TRANSFORMED MINI JCW IS NOW A JOY,EVEN IN THE WET...TOTALLY UNEXPECTED BARGAIN PRICE,RECOMMENDED!
These are genuinely the worst tires I have ever come across. I have fitted a new pair to the rear of my 320d and the car now feels like its on a skating rink. I haven driven 60 miles on them today and arrived at my destination feeling sick. The back end of the car feels like it's running on flat tires. This accompanied with my traction control light coming on when going around a bend means I will never look at linglongs again.
The local tire dealer recommended these when I went to replace the Lassa tires I had on the front of my Lancer. With a better wet braking distance than the Lassa's they replaced for the same money I decided to try them. They list them as Green Max rather than Ling Long Green Max presumably to stop people thinking they're buying Chinese ditch finders. When I realised I'd they were Chinese I thought I'd made a big mistake but after a wet winter's driving I was wrong - they are great in the wet! I'd been happy with the Lassa's but these have much more grip in the wet when you chuck it into a bend or a roundabout, no hint of understeer at all. I'd but them again!
Oh dear lord you might as well just mould some blocks of concrete into a roughly round shape and fit them to your car. They lasted well enough getting 18000 from the front tires and 22000 miles from the rears. The dry grip is okay they tend to lose it rapidly when pushed so be warned. In the wet its best to tiptoe everywhere and approaching any form of corner or roundabout fills you with dread as you know the car will slip out. They are cheap and nasty, use them to get a car through an MOT by all means but otherwise avoid.
So far, these tires are amazing, I'm quite impressed. Only cost $80 AUS each and they are FAR better than the Yokohama's I had previously and the Dunlops prior to that. Definitely the best value and performance for money tires I've ever purchased
Bought 3 of these for my car at a steal (£129 fitted with valve and balancing), i was expecting much but the tires are actually very good. i've been using them for about 4000 miles now and they still have plenty of tread on them.
