You would be betting off getting a whole grip of bike tires, and stretching them onto your wheels.

So those 4 parts of your car that actually contact the road, your going to get the cheapest tires possible? Least grip, durability, ride the worst? Mmmk when you wreck your car or just cant drive it and have fun get out your credit card and buy good ones.

Federal, Kumho, General, Maxxis all make fantastic tires for not too much more then bottom of the barrel like linglong and the like. Are they even DOT approved?

I'm not thinking anyone will take you seriously after a statement like that.

Better do some research.

Tons of people in the autoX world run the DOT legal Ecsta V710 race slicks.

Lots of people in the rally world run the Ecsta R700 gravel tires.

I have linglong 235/45/17's

THEY SUCK!SUCK!SUCK!

The only good thing they will ever do is: When I get some rt-615's, I will feel that much more of a difference in performance.

Then they are going on my drift wheels to melt off in 20 minutes. Then I will try to forget I ever waisted $180 on crap!
