Trying another cheap tire... Groundspeed Voyager GT.

[ZZman]

Found these at Walmart. About half to 1/3 the price of major name brand tires. We shall see how these do compared to the Zennas I just took off.

Good, keep pricing pressure on the big boys.

My morbidly thrifty father used to buy one tire at a time. Regardless of brand or model. As a result, he drove around on four different tires with four different states of wear. At least they were the same nominal size. And then he wondered why his car pulled to one side.

One tire he bought from a Pep Boys type store was an "Abel Label" brand. To save warehouse space, the tire was tightly wrapped in some kind of strong tape, with the two sidewalls touching and the tread folded in the middle. Until unwrapped, it looked like a big yellow washer. In the late 1960s, this tire was under nine dollars.

I've gotten several cheaper tires over the years and never really had any major issues. Sometimes you do get what you pay for but many folks don't care.

I have WestLake tires on the CX-9 currently and while the ride/balance is really good; they are a bit too noisy for my liking. The Corolla also has two cheap tires (solus maybe?) and the ride has been good, but they are wearing quickly. Can't complain too much for 115 OTD for two though. Will likely get nicer tires on the Mazda next go round.

not cheap enough for me to go full off brand.
I'd go Ironman Imove gen 2 for $74

They are likely made in China by Cooper

or Mastercraft Avenger m8 which should be made in USA. and 63$

The Mastercraft is actually made by Cooper in China. I just checked a few tires DOT which all started with RM which checks out.

iMovie Gen2 I have seen from a few factories.. The last few I checked were out of Sailun Vietnam factory (1YJ)

This OP tire is made by Sentury in Thailand and is the regular all season. They also have a stickier compound model called Voyager HP.

Not bad, but they do have cheap all-weather tires too
