The tires are perfectly average. Ok dry grip and feedback when its hot out, but lets go without warning when the weather is colder and when making evasive maneuvers. Quite noisy at highway speeds, but I got what I paid for. However quite sketchy in the wet, felt like it could understeer anytime. It skidded when braking several times, but my car doesn't have ABS so not their fault really. But the feedback doesn't transfer well in wet, unlike the Coopers or Continentals I've had in the past, where I could feel the tire gripping or letting go, and could modulate the braking force accordingly. All in all, ok tires just be extra careful and use common sense when it is wet out. No amount of compound engineering could save a car hydroplanning at 100mph
Went to local tire depot I was recommended these less than a,week later it rained the car was worse than driving on Ice aking it impossible to safely pull out of side roads Damp conditions I went back to tire depot assuming tires were faulty they claimed they weren't! They have zero grip in wet and extremely poor grip in dry they are by far the most Dangerous tires I've ever Driven on I soon bought 4 new Japanese tires the car does now break traction in the wet even under extremely hard acceleration
Which tires do you drive?
Researching the Winda WH16? Rate the tires you actually drive - and help the next buyer choose.
I was hoping to find something cheap enough to burn off if the mood took me in the Mustang. Considering I had Pirelli Zero Neros and Cooper CS3s on before (which happily attacked my bank balance to buy) these things grip shockingly well in comparison. I have not yet found the limit of grip on a corner and I have to really work to break the tires loose getting going. 105$ a tire???? That's nearly HALF what Costco's cheapest option was.
Considering how cheap they are I also measured very acceptable road force measurements upon mounting and balancing. Ive installed Bridgestone's did far worse
I will be buying these again if they're available when I go for tires next.

Worse rain grip than a semislick actually ridiculous. Took well over 3 car lengths to stop in the wet going 60kmph and causes traction control to activate when taking off even at a crawl on an incline.
Bought the tires by recommendation of a friend. Tires did well considering the price. Noticeably understeers, quite long dry braking and wet braking when stopping from over 100kmph, handles and drives exceptionally well under 80kmph. Quite and comfortable provided that has soft side walls.
Seen temperatures between 18C and 35C, Rain and hot sun, Never seen snow. Aquaplanes when low tread (depends on road, usually smooth roads over 80kmph)
Tires lasted for 4 years of daily driving. Developed deep cracks on all four tires after 75% of life.
Overall- good tires for a grocery getter or for daily commute, to and from work for a calm driver. Absolutely stay away from harsh driving over 80 kmph.
The worst tire I ever had dry and wet grip awaful car constantly slips on corners and a lot of esp activation when accelerating or cornering and I've got only 110hp audi. Wouldn't recommend to anyone with more than 25hp car as car slides even at 25mph when drizzle and going through roundabout! Don't buy it it unless you don't care about safety and you just want cheap and long lasting tire because they are vary cheap and now I've done more than 25k and still looks like new!
Bought them couple of week before, for the price those tires are unbelievable. They perform so well in wet and dry. Being in Canada and how fast the weather change, those tires are treating me good so far. Highly recommend them
Horrible tires. Wheel spin in wet. No grip on snow. Slid at 5mph. Should be banned in winter. Do not use. Dangerous. The difference when I changed tires to premium brand all season tires was night and day difference. Do not buy these. Truly the worst tires ever in 30ish years driving.
