Do you stick to well known tire brands?
Some brands are well known for being shite
>>29052459I pick the fastest tire available.Simple as.
i buy whatever all seasons are cheapest and start yelling loudly about the tire jew when they try and talk to me about siping
>>29052459Well known brands that are actually good, yeah. There are plenty of fanboy'd up brands out there who sell junk. I myself don't buy into the Michelin/BFG meme. I run Nokians non winter tire offerings because they're not much more than the chink options but I can actually trust them.
>>29052498>Why yes, I love spending $1200 on tires every 5-7k miles just so I won't be able to ever break traction and all of my poor driving habits are masked by grip.
Yes, I don't want to roll the dice on some chingchong brand.
>>29052541There's a very large gradient between chink eco tires and some of the stickiest non-race tires.
>>29052525>$1200Set of ps4s on mine is 2k
boy i sure love saving 20 bucks on the most important part of the car so i can take a nap in a ditch
>>29052459not only that I only buy tires with the BMW STAR on them>>29052646this is a total meme, you can buy the shittest possible tires and won't crash unless you drive like a retard or you dont change them when they are fucked
>>29052654>this is a total memeNot completely when you look at the cornering, braking and aquaplaning performance of some cheap brands. Yes you should drive within the grip limits you have, but you'll be going very slowly and possibly holding up traffic
>>29052525you’re slow and gay
>>29052459Yup, LingLongs are extremely well known now, and they're cheap to boot! What's not to love? :)
>>29052733would be fun to see an actual comparison test of ling longs against cheapo other brands vs premium tires of all the same kind all on the same kind of car
>>29052736iirc TyreReviews does a few tests like that, and while LingLongs do actually perform reasonably well, they almost never last as long as the premium brands.
I wish the Chinese made tires with offensive names. I would buy them. >>29052702Whoa that guy has arm tattoos. How badass.
>>29052498>fastest tireHow fast do those go?
>>29052459I don't drive a normgroid car, so I take what I can get.Vitour isn't so well know, but I will be trying some Galaxies next time I buy.
>>29052498People will say this after picking the slowest car
>>29052696I can't think of a situation where going the speed limit with shitty (but not extremely worn) tyres would ever a cause a crashif you have TC off and are going 20 over in heavy rain then yeah it might be an issue
>>29052783Ah, I see you're American. Roads in other countries have things we call "corners".There's also stopping distance to think about - an emergency stop on premium tires will have you wearing the vehicle in front as a hat on shitty cheap ones.But you do yo - just don't drive anywhere near me. It's not for nothing we used to call the OEM tyres on older bikes "Nagasaki Ditchfinders" and used to swap them out at about 5 miles - the distance from the dealer to the tyre fitters
yest.linglong enthusiast
>>29052783Have a watch of thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsEgWcRMwf4The opening sequence gives you a taster if your attention span has been fried by Facebook and TikTok
>>29052791if the difference between good and bad tyre stopping distance causes a crash you were driving too close
Michelin for years, decades even. 2.5
>>29052836Agreed. So as long as you drive like my grandma you'll be fine on shitty tires - until someone pulls out on you. But of course you'll be fine because it will be their fault.
>>29052836>>29052837Screengrab from>>29052833Dry braking. 6m difference. With one tire the idiot pulls out and you stop, touching his driver's door, with the other you stop, touching his passenger door through the cabin
>>29052847(forgot pic)
>>29052836>>29052848Add a little water and the situation gets over 1m worse
i like my hangook shittergy sts on my 14s
>>29052525>$1,200 per set of 200tw tiresOh my sweet Summer child.It's $2,500 a set.
>>29052459I look at whatever has the best ride quality and lowest NVH for a given tire size and go with that
>>29052772what the fuck are you talking about? Why would a 'not normal' car need special tyres you fucking mong
>>29052966A couple years ago I had a full set of tires shipped and installed for under $190. It was like $34 a tire on Amazon.14x6 baybee.
>>29052836Or if the little girl runs into the road after her cat?
>>29053033Rotate and Akira slide it. You CAN do that with a car.
>>29052982But I have a cool race car and a GF.Girls don't tolerate poor fags in the 30s dating market.
>>29053037You haven’t got a driving licence yet, have you? How many years to go?
>>29053087Got my license in '05. :)You absolutely can do that with a car. It's fun, take a RWD out into the sand or dry dirt and practice.>>29053051>Girls don't tolerate poor fags in the 30s dating market.I had most of my sex in college. I also live in a 6 bedroom, 6 garage house on 25 acres. I'll run a 30 year old shitbox on 14"s all day. I wear t-shirts and cargo pants as if I was poor as hell. If a woman doesn't want me in cargos, she's not worth it. All I want from women is sex, nearing 40, they're money grubbers who want kids. I don't want kids - I got what I wanted in my teens and 20s, as should anyone else. Hereditary-from-father terminal illness may play a role here I never thought about having kids and now, it's too late, oh no.
>>29053131> You absolutely can do that with a car. I never said you couldn’t. But it’s not going to make the situation better as the coefficient of dynamic friction is less than that for static friction.
>>29053037This suggestion came from an individual who claims to be an adult male of at least 37 years old. Let that sink in.
>>29053131Yes and my father also works for Nintendo.
>>29052966>sweetsummerchieldYou down drive or own a car
>>29053207No, I’m exactly 37. I do dumb stunts in cars for cheap thrills, problem?
>>29052978You know enough English to be annoying, try learning enough to read a full sentence.
