Tyre reviews Satoya W-36. Page 8 455

Mid-2023. Not very fresh

Took on grant, will supplement review in winter

Soft rubber

Good tires

Good tires have something to compare with, so far in favor of the tires I bought, plus compared to ours

I need 2 camber N14 for the right side

Winter will show

As always with a delay

Burning rubber.

Overall, my opinion is: I'm pleased that the tires arrived in a pair and are identical, the downside is that they are from the 28th week of 2023, although I was told they would be from 2024 or 2025. Winter will show how they perform, I'll go to the tire shop, get them balanced and add a comment on how the balancing process went. Overall, I'd give them a solid 4 (I deducted one star due to the manufacturing date), from a neutral perspective, the fact that they weren't packaged is a concern, as oil may leak or something may happen to them during transportation, I'd like you to look into this. I'll repeat that they arrived earlier than the specified deadline, which is a plus. The sidewall of the tires is somewhat soft, so it's best not to get too close to curbs, the tread is quite soft, but Chinese tires have their own downsides, on the wear indicator (which is 4mm for winter tires), there are no more lamella grooves, meaning you can drive on them until 4mm, after that, they'll be like smooth summer tires. The price reflects this, previously I drove on Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3, which had lamella grooves until 1.5mm of tread, but they're soft (wore out in one season) and cost an unreasonable amount of money, specifically I paid 6800 for one tire, I hope Satoya will meet my expectations for Chinese winter tires. I hope so.
