Cheap quality tires
I bought a set when I only needed two front tires .....they were cheap and matched my rear tires In almost every aspect besides brand ....was pleasantly surprised. They didn't last super long , maybe 30k more or less . But they wore uniform almost perfectly and they were doing decent in the winter weather even being right down to the wear indicator. I just replaced them as it was time to and I got another set lol . Probably could've gotten more life if I rotated them but I like how they performed in the front better then my rear tires I have now

These Tires Don't Last
I have had these tires a little over a year and the tread is already worn to the steel belt. They didn't even last for 15,000 miles, which is ridiculous. I would not recommend these to anyone. I looked at them the other day and the tread was rather worn, I figured I would have a week or two before they really would need replacing. I was wrong. After a 100 mile trip that tread was down to the steel belt. This is unacceptable. Do Not Buy these garbage tires.

I've driven more than 1.5 million miles
In my sales career, I've driven 1,500,000+ miles. I grew tired of paying more and more for "brand name" tires. I researched tire manufacturers and refuse to buy Chinese tires-(obvious reasons). Three brands rose to the top of reasonably priced tires, Otani Thailand, Petlas, Turkey, and Iris, Algeria. I put these on my 2014 Ford Taurus SHO, and are VERY happy. I live in SE Tenn, so not much winter, so no rating, but, if you look at the tread design, they are NOT winter tires. I bought Petlas for my Land Rover along with these Otani tires from Simple Tire, and am very pleased all around. Smooth, quiet and good wet and dry traction. These "brand name" mfrs better watch out---competition will eat you up!
