The Vee Rubber Vitron ZR tires appear to be a budget-friendly option with mixed results. While some customers find them adequate for short-term use or as a cost-effective solution, many report significant issues with performance, noise, and durability.

My car traction control suffered terribly
Putting them at the same inflation as the orange Continental tires, OEM spec, the handling suffers immensely. Had to lower rear tire pressure to avoid wheel hop on sharp turns. Even at reduced speed. Will never buy again.

No warranty.
Had a new set of Vee Rubber for a few months and was going to rotate them soon (back tires showed very little wear). On the way home from work, a truck forced me to the side of a busy highway. The passenger front tire (the one's showing minor wear) passed over a lump of debris with no issue but the passenger rear tire caught something the first tire missed and it gored a hole between the tread and sidewall. I called the shop I purchased them from and they couldn't repair it. Almost new tread mind you. I had to either buy another Vee Rubber tire new or a used tire. Not having a spare $115 in the bank for a new tire of the same brand (excluding mounting, balancing, and disposal of 'old' tire), I opted for a used one for $40. The tire shop offered NO warranty or discount for the same brand tire. I consider the debris hit as part of a road hazard and honored by the company. This is apparently not the case. Be wary of brand new tires that offer no warranty, these being one example.

Mavis, Road noise at 15,000 miles
Purchase these tires from Mavis 15,000 miles ago and the tire started acting like they were not balanced, creating road noise, Mavis tried to sell me a better tire, stating it's a cheeper tire

Horrible
We have less than 10,000 miles and are going to change these out. Road noise, shaking over 50 mph even after rebalancing, uneven wear. Need I say more?

I have over two years ordering tires from simpletire and today I'm looking forward to ordering 4 new tires. I trust simpletire since my very 1st purchase, i had order 2 tires and only received one to my mailing address. Without any complication simpletire sent me the second tire that was missing in delivery. I recommend purchasing from simpletire to all my friends it's good to know I can make an order online and expect 100% satisfaction and quality.

I bought these tires 6 months ago and have had them rotated once. My car is shaking out of control so today I take it in to the tire shop and they say the tires are so worn that it wouldn't pass a state inspection and need replaced now. I have barely driven on them! The tire shop said they were likely defective from the beginning. They would have sent them back. When they were put on they required 6 weights on one tire to balance and 10 on another. Dont buy these! I called Vee Ruber to see about the manufacture warranty they said they dont have anyone for automotive tires that work in this country only for ATVs. They dont do any type of warranty your only hope is through simple tire who only offers road hazard which according to Vee Rubber defective tire wouldn't have been covered by road hazard anyway. When you call Simple Tire you will be put on hold forever then get a recording that hangs up on you! Grrr! So frustrating!!!

Some are satisfied with these and maybe I got a bad batch. Not suitable for driving above 50 mph. Vibration despite re-balancing and alignment, extremely noisy. These tires should not be sold for roads in developed countries. Immensely frustrated I ended replacing them with Continental after 1,000 miles and all is fine now.
