Scored a set of these for ~$38/ea through Wally for our 2015 Nissan Versa. I had put a set on our 2019 Pathfinder last September and they've been awesome for the price. Nothing but the best for my Nissans I tell ya.

At least it's not ADX Florence. That would be scary.

Considering tires are most important safety equipment, how do you measure "awesome for the price?"Scored a set of these for ~$38/ea through Wally for our 2015 Nissan Versa.

I would say they are awesome for the price because they are safer than worn tires, and they have passed DOT regulation.
Considering that I've had a set of rather expensive "M" brand tires (from France), that had very little wet traction and zero snow and ice traction... how bad could they be for the price?
I'll just refer to them as "M" brand tire, so that I don't inflict distress on anyone.

Which M tires have bad wet performance? Want to know that.
So, what is braking distance from 60 to 0 between M and SuperMax? Please share with others so we also know that.
DOT has not tested them.
The manufacturer claims that they passed DOT test, AFAIK.

If the reference tire came off a bicycle, yes...

I would personally never run tires that cheap, unless maybe as a spare tire or something, assuming they can hold air for long periods. That's coming from someone whose income is well below the poverty line. Cheap beer = good idea to save money. Cheap tires = not so much LOL 
Many reviews online from that "brand" with defective beads or sidewalls. Common complaints are short tread life, leaking air, and structural failure. If the tires wear out after 20K, is there really any money saved over a tire costing twice as much, but twice the miles before replacing?

They can't be any worse than the egg-shaped "good-for-a-year's" on my truck.

They hold air, they roll, they're smooth and quiet and they allow the vehicle to drive, handle and stop well. Are they as good as a name brand 3x the cost? Probably not, but I don't care. I'm lucky to get a few years and 36K miles out of any make/model tire with my usage.
It may be a few weeks before I get these installed on the Versa, but on the Pathfinder, we've put about 7000 miles on the same make/model tires. Obviously, the 17" versions were a bit more expensive for the Pathfinder.
Dry and wet handling /performance feels better than the factory Yokohamas did. Winter performance was great and we've had a bad winter.
0-60 braking times? No idea. 35yrs of driving and I've never once based a tire purchase on that.
Nearly all online reviews are meaningless to me.
I wonder what sort of vehicle the people that make these tires drive?
Stolen bicycles.

I just bought another set of RT43s in this exact size for the xB, guess I overpaid at ~$55 each?? NAH...
