I bought a used Kia Forte as a second car in 2013. Prior to the sale, the dealer replaced the front tires with these and left the rear bald tires intact. As a flyer, I decided to just replace the rear tires with other "Goodrides" for very very cheap so I had a matching set. These things were the butt of jokes at first, but although I wasn't expecting much, the tires lasted 7 years and over 40K miles. I'm absolutely shocked but very impressed. The only real issue (and granted, the Forte is a light compact car) is that deep into the tread life wet traction started to become an issue. I won't be buying "Goodride"s again, a brand with perhaps a not so subtle name brand reference and a mascot that might reference another name-brand-tire constructed man, but I can't say that I regret this purchase in any way. I have a new respect for Chinese tires. But given the options I'll probably go a bit more upscale. I have an appointment to get these replaced in six days.

Completely excellent tyres, makes the car very grippy and fun to throw into the corners.
