We had about 6" of sonw last night and my Yoks didn't do too good this morning. Once I got to the highly plowed roads I was fine, but down the side streets I didn't do too good.

alright here is my take. Why go cheap on the only part that touches the road. Its the easiest way to increase your handling performance. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR
!! STICK WITH A REPUTABLE TIRE BRAND.

I have the wanli tires on my xb. They seem well made and they have good traction. I live in FL too, so the rain hadling is important. They do very well in the rain so far. The tires are unidirectional, so they have to be mounted properly. Goodyear taught us that even expensive tires can be defective. Remember that you are not going to be driving at high speeds (or you wouldn't have bought an xB).

these (wanli) are the tires im picking up today on my Katana KR5's. The shop said i would get either kumhos or wanli's. I inquired as to which i would get and they kept saying they didnt know. I mentioned i wanted kumhos. i got wanlis. told them i wasnt that happy, and i wanted them to switch the rubber to kumhos. they said tires were already mounted and balanced and it was too late.

i get my rims today, so im happy, but lil skeptical of the wanlis.

shop said wanli's are made by dunlop...not sure if thats true or not.
