Joyroad sport RX6 Tires

Anyone have any words for these or any of the cheap Chinese tires out there ?

Joyroad sport RX6

My TL came with some on the car. 235-35-19
seem to be fine but it's time for some new tires. Before I spend $500 plus on tires I would like some reviews. Cheap tires run from $75 to $110. The cheapest brand tires start at $112 and up in my size.

Any info would be appreciated.

Reviews through a quick google search appear to be mixed.

Problem with Chinese tires is they are very hit or miss... even within the same product line. I don't know... for me, tires are one of the most important parts of the car. I wouldn't skimp on them and would go with a name brand every time

Wow that's a pricey tire size.
That said, a quick browse on tirerack shows some options from Sumitomo, Yokohama & Kumho in the 130-170/tire range.

If you can hold out, I would wait until Memorial Day. There usually seems to be a sale on tires around that time.

Don't be afraid to try and price match, especially at NTB. I've had them come down on the price a bit or throw in a free alignment.

Also, I agree with JuniorBean I would go with a name brand tire. After you factor in the cost to mount and balance, Chinese tires will wear out very quickly and I don't think you'll save much money overall.
