Tyre reviews Triangle TH202 EffeXSport. Page 1 4979

Hello everyone! I decided to leave my review now, and it's a good thing I didn't write it earlier...
In general, I ordered this tire (it was the 3rd set - my friends bought it and recommended it to me)
It arrived quickly - I picked it up, drove to my friends' tire shop, and the verdict was TIRE IS CROOKED!
(Before that, I had balanced my wheels, replaced the hub, and done everything to put on the new set of tires and drive with pleasure, BUT NO!
At speeds from 80 km/h, the steering wheel was shaking strongly! It was impossible to drive!
We tried to rebalance it at another tire shop - same thing (I thought maybe the guys from the first shop did something wrong)
In the end, 2 tire shops confirmed the same thing - the tire is crooked, it jumps, and there's nothing to be done - sell it on Avito....
I got upset - but these things happen, nobody is immune to this! I called the hotline - described the problem, they said bring the tire - we'll conduct an expert examination!
They did a free tire mounting! I found used tires on Avito for 5000 rubles
I came to the guys - they remounted the tires and took the old ones to Moscow. Moreover, when they remounted the tires, even the masters from MосAvtoShina confirmed that the tire was crooked and jumped!

While waiting for the conclusion, I naturally started reading reviews and finding out if anyone else had similar problems - YES, I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. And everyone was denied!
After 3 weeks, the answer came - everything meets the GOST standards!
My anger was limitless! I was already thinking about where to do an independent examination and write a pre-trial claim!
BUT I decided to wait for the tires and try them again, just doing the tire mounting with the guys from MосAvtoShina! - especially since they did it for free due to the inconvenience!
In the end, it turned out that these tires, before inflating them to the necessary pressure and starting to use them, need to be inflated to 6-7 atmospheres, and then returned to the necessary 2.3-2.5 (I don't remember exactly)
Because the tires are Chinese and the mounting specification is such (not quoting the master's words exactly)
The guys even put the wheels on the balancing machine in front of me - and indeed, the wheels don't jump, and they behave normally! But I still had doubts, but I wanted to believe that everything would be fine :D
Now I've been driving for a week
I checked at speeds from 80 to 160-170 and OH MIRACLE! Everything is fine!)
In the end, if I were to write a review based on emotions, it would be a terrible negative one! Although in the end, the situation was resolved, and everything is fine with the tires! Good luck to everyone)

It can be said that this is already a classic Chinese tire manufacturer that inspires trust.

Like many others, I had the Triangl 201 model, which overall left a positive impression, but had its drawbacks.

Compared to the TH201 model, the TH202 has become softer, quieter, and accordingly, the grip has become better, the behavior on wet roads has improved significantly, the mileage on them is currently 6000, I expect faster wear, since the tire has become softer, but otherwise, progress is clearly visible, perhaps this is the most optimal option that can be bought for summer from Chinese tires.

This review is not about the store/tire shop, but about the TRIANGLE TH202 225/50/18 tires.

The quality is unsatisfactory, if you don't want problems with your car's wheels, don't buy this model.

The size is 225/50/18, possibly the problem is only with this size. Maybe the problem is with the batch, my tires have a production date of 0624.

These are the second Chinese-made tires in my 20 years of driving and car ownership experience (the first ones were okay). I installed this model on NEW rims (they were checked before installation and then twice during the problem search, the rims are even and problem-free).

The first installation was at the Mosaavtoshina tire shop in Krasnodar, ul. Solnechnaya.

At first, after installation, I drove 500 km at a speed of no more than 90, rarely 100 km/h, breaking in the new tires, maybe it's nonsense, but I did it. Then I drove normally and discovered that at a speed of 130-160 km/h, there was a wild vibration on the steering wheel. I visited another private tire shop, they found a beating on one of the wheels, tried to rotate the tire 180°, but nothing changed. I applied for a warranty claim. I put on my old set of wheels, and there was no beating at any speed! That is, the car is fine, and the problem is with the new wheels. The tire was sent to Moscow, where they issued a conclusion that everything is okay. I checked the rim again, it's perfect. I checked the rim in several services, everything is okay. The tire was returned, and the tire shop put it on the rim, and the beating was gone. BUT the beating appeared on another wheel.

Additionally, I will mention that the tire is quite soft, which is a plus. It's noisy, but that's not critical for me. There are no other comments on consumer properties.

I don't have time to apply for a warranty claim again. But I will do it because of the poor-quality product from the Triangle manufacturer until I resolve my problem. This is some kind of circus, not a tire. I previously read similar reviews about this tire model, but I hoped it was just individual cases of defects.

I strongly do not recommend, do not buy, do not suffer.

Square/oval/triangular tires (as a name), but NOT ROUND. Rebalanced three times, rotated relative to the disk, swapped places. On the balancing machine, they are balanced normally. But at speeds above 120-130, they vibrate, it's a pity for the car. Apparently, at lower speeds, the suspension copes, takes the blows on itself, but undoubtedly, even at low speeds, this harms the suspension. I sent them under warranty to the service center, Mosavtoshina, and the conclusion was that everything corresponds to GOST. How this is possible, I do not know, on old tires everything is okay. On other disks/tires, everything is OK. And on these "GOST-compliant" ones, it's impossible to drive on the highway.

Do not be misled by beautiful reviews. Do not repeat the mistakes!

I've been unlucky!
Three tires turned out to be crooked (one was like an egg, the other two were crooked horizontally) and only one was excellent.
This is the second time I've had a "puncture" with this brand - last time I bought a winter studdable tire (all wheels were egg-shaped). I thought I was just unlucky because everyone around me is very satisfied and writes enthusiastic reviews about handling, braking, and other nonsense.
In general, if you drive 80-90 km/h, then it's great tires 😂, but if you drive faster, then definitely not.
Crooked tires - what kind of reviews can you expect? 🤷‍♂️
Once is a coincidence - twice is a pattern!
It's up to you to decide - I've had enough experiments!
P.S. If anyone wants to try the quality of this product, I can offer it to you at half price. Write to me.

Initially, I wanted to get exactly Triangl, because I have experience with this company's tires, specifically the previous generation th201 model. On the website, I stumbled upon the fact that the next generation th202 was available for sale, so I decided to try it, and it was the right decision. The tire is significantly better than its predecessor. It's quieter, and most importantly, it doesn't catch ruts like the th201 did. I'm very satisfied with the tire and recommend it to everyone.

255/50/20.

I spent a long time choosing summer tires. If you look beyond China, the price starts at 20,000 rubles for 1 tire - it was suffocating to pay 80,000 for tires... Among Chinese tires, I only knew 3-4 brands, and the rest were unknown to me. I read, studied, and stopped at Triangle, as it turned out they are #1 in China (with more than 5 factories in China and 48 years of company history).

I installed the tires on March 9, and so far, I've driven only a little - 500 km. For now, I can say that I'm very pleased with the tires. They are soft, quiet, with good traction, good quality, and well-balanced. At the tire shop, the master took a long time to feel them, turn them, and twist them, and said that they are very similar to Michelin... Let's see how they will perform over several seasons...

I purchased the Triangle TH202 EffeSport summer tires from Mosaavtoshina. This is my first time buying Chinese tires, and I didn't know which ones to choose. My friends recommended this brand, which seems decent and not too expensive, with a tread pattern similar to Kumho Crugen (which I used before). During installation, I didn't encounter any problems (I did the mounting myself), the tire bead was neither too hard nor too soft, and they seated well. The balancing process was also normal, with no issues. I've driven only about 100 km so far, but it seems that there's even less noise from these tires compared to the Kumho ones. They handle the road well, and I drove in light rain, accelerating up to 140 km/h.

Now, regarding the order and delivery process, Mosaavtoshina is "still a warehouse"! I waited two weeks for the tires, and the website indicated that two wheels were not in stock and would be delivered from a regional warehouse within a week. In reality, they arrived after 10 days, which is acceptable since I wasn't in a hurry. However, during this time, no manager called me or informed me about the status. They sent me emails, but I had clearly written in the order comments to CALL ME BY PHONE!!! It was only after I called them myself, which wasn't easy because I kept getting different managers, and the ones handling my order didn't want to connect me and tried to resolve the issue themselves. I had to explain everything from the beginning...

After incredible efforts, I finally managed to speak with the manager handling my order, and we had a "blind leading the blind" conversation:
- Did you see the comment saying CALL ME?
- Yes
- Why didn't you call?
- I sent you a message
- Where?
- To your email
- I don't check my email, that's why I asked you to call. Why didn't you call?
- Well, I sent you a message
- Okay...

We waited for the delivery, tracked the messages, and the manager said the driver would call a day in advance to confirm the arrival time. In the end, the driver called 30 minutes before arriving. I was lucky to be at the delivery address by chance... Who was lucky? Probably me. Okay, waiting for the delivery... Finally, they arrived. The driver opens the van, and all the tires are lying on the floor, dirty, wet, with water inside the tires, and the labels are missing... Payment is only in cash, no invoice, no receipt, no information about who delivered or to whom. I ask, "Where's the invoice?" "It's on your email." "Give me at least the packages." "Packages cost extra, you should have ordered them." The driver takes the money, doesn't give me the change (20 rubles), and doesn't even explain why. He just leaves. This is the kind of customer service you can expect from Mosaavtoshina!!!

The invoice never arrived in my email. I placed the order on 22.09.2024, and today (16.10.2024) I'm writing this review. The order was delivered on 09.10.2024.

In conclusion: The tires are good, and the price is affordable.
I do not recommend the company Mosaavtoshina to anyone (I couldn't find a way to leave a review without ratings, so please disregard the stars I've given). I'm writing a review about summer tires, but I have to rate the performance on ice, so I'll give it 5 stars.

Under no circumstances buy THIS. The relationship is simply ..... The wheels are square, and at the same time "well within the norms" you can't drive over 100 km/h. Pay a couple of thousand more and buy normal wheels.

The car has 800+ Nm of torque and rear-wheel drive, the rear tires are changed about as often as the air filter.

I had experience with Th201 R20 on another of my cars, frankly, the tires for trips from point A to point B, there was no grip at all, especially in the summer when they heated up, they behaved like winter tires.

As for this model, I read reviews, took it, and was pleasantly surprised. Firstly, the grip, it's there, before that I had a set of Kormoran, I caught grip on 3rd gear, now I catch it on 2nd. I was very surprised by the resistance to aquaplaning, 100-120 without loss of stability. At the same time, a fairly acceptable level of noise. For its money, it's a great tire, 2 heads better than the previous model.
