Ford Fairmont ghia Tire Review Highlights
I am in Australia and have found these tires to be very good in all respects for the price.
They were fitted new just prior to to me buying the car and would not have been my choice, mainly because I have never heard of them before, but have found no reason to replace them.
If your driving in snow you should always fit chains to any tire, yes would do get snow here, so would not expect any tire to perform well without them.
Plan to keep them till they start to misbehave, only time will tell, so far no problem with them, fuel consumption also good.
Showing hardly any signs of wear after 8000 kilometres.

Great tires on my family sedan. Quiet until near end of life. Lasted me about 60,000 kms on mixed driving over 3.5 years. I think they improve fuel economy if maintained. Recommended.

I bought a ford fairmont with these on it. They were near new. I got the car steering aligned and wheels balanced. It rained during the wheel service. I drove out into the rain and on the first roundabout the car slid out at the front and then the back came out and the car did a 280 spin. This was at about 25 kmph. Thinking it may be oil or grease on the three I then gingerly drove the car until I could scrub them up on some gravel. After some testing and checking, these tires are really dangerous, ESP in the wet and unsafe at even low speeds on corners. The fairmont is a large heavy rear wheel drive sedan, and these tires are particulary unsuited, they break and slip with no warning in the wet,(front and back) including a four wheel slide at about 40k on a sloping corner. I intend to replace them and slash the Nanking tires and throw them away, they are really shocking tires in the wet and should not even be sold. There are many other reviews as to how unsafe these tires are in the wet and how they fail at cornering, they should be recalled as a road safety issue.
