Tyre reviews Triangle TH202 EffeXSport. Page 2 4979

I recommend these tires!
I bought them for my Rio 3 205/45/17
In principle, there were a few options to choose from, I decided to take a risk and take this tire. There were few reviews due to the novelty of the model, so I trusted the brand, plus the reviews of the previous model were not bad. I decided that new is always better than old. And I wasn't mistaken. The tire is excellent, it holds well on both dry and wet surfaces. It brakes well. Surprisingly, it's quiet and soft, compared to Sailun, if I may say so, I've never driven on Michelin, so I can't say.
Based on my feelings - it's cool, comfortable tire!)
And also for such a price)))
I've only driven 1000 km, if there's anything to add, I'll add it))

Well, what can I tell you guys. I bought tires in May. They arrived approximately after the May holidays. I was very pleased, I read reviews where people drove 200km on them without any problems.

I picked them up and immediately went to change them, overjoyed. I removed the old Pirelli P Zero tires and put on these new ones.

The balancing was normal, I drove out into the city and was very surprised at how great the tires were - soft, quiet, good grip, in short, I was very pleased. I drove around 100km in the city without pushing it to the limit, just to break them in. I went out of town and that's when my disappointment started, the car started to vibrate at 120-130km/h and above.

I immediately thought that maybe I needed to rebalance them, since the tires were new, so I went back to the balancing shop, and it turned out that they added 10-20 grams in some places and removed some in others, but this time both I and the mechanic looked closely at how the tires spun on the machine, and it turned out that two of the tires were slightly egg-shaped. The mechanic said it was not critical at all (the deviations were minimal). I put the two uneven tires back on.

So, what do you think? I went driving again, eager to calm myself down, and of course, nothing changed. In short, I'm upset. The tires were made in April 2024. I just put on a brand new set. Today I drove again and got upset, the vibration in the steering wheel at 130km/h was still there. Before changing to the P Zero (which is almost worn out), I used to drive at 180-200km/h without any vibrations. In short, I don't know if I just got unlucky or if the tires are bad. But I'll say this, in the city, they're just great. Just don't take them on the highway. And also, when braking from 200km/h, they float like crazy.

were balanced perfectly, 30-10 grams per side. recently at 90-100km/h imbalance became apparent. wheels were spun on the machine and ... all four tires either bounce a little or slightly wobble... rearranged two new ones... result. the same... wobble, very small but it's there... that's it.

In the city, it's okay. At speeds over 110, the wheel starts to vibrate. After 140, it's just awful. At high speeds, it floats.

I've always been skeptical of Chinese products, and for good reason. However, I was swayed by the cheap price and bought myself a Triangle TH202 EffeXSport tire with different widths: Rear 255 30 20, Front 225 35 20, hoping for a miracle, but the miracle didn't happen. When I put the tires on the rims, the first thing that caught my attention was that the wheels looked somehow narrow, incomplete (although the rim and tire specifications were all properly matched, as recommended by the factory). The car became ten times more sensitive to road unevenness compared to European tires. But when I drove on the highway and the speedometer went over 130, vibration started, giving me the feeling that the wheels were square. I thought maybe the rims were warped or poorly balanced, so I stopped at a tire shop to check. It turned out that the rims were perfectly even, but the Chinese tires were bouncing up and down. The conclusion is one: never buy these tires, they're a real horror and Chinese garbage.

I've already written a review for these tires, Mosavtoshina just once more, please.

Tires of the worst quality. The main problem: they vibrate. They are balanced on the machine, but vibrate at speeds. This manifests at speeds from 120 km/h. I.e. the tire has not an ideally round shape. When re-mounting/re-balancing the wheel, it passes for a short time, then manifests again. Don't buy, I don't recommend!

So! I bought tires, got them mounted at a tire shop, balanced - balanced normally, but the installer immediately said that 3 out of 4 are "egg-shaped". He put marks on them, rotated them on the rim, inflated to 5 atm, rotated again, and again. He said we need to drive around and come back in a month - they should settle in. We drove around, like on a lame horse: the car shakes at various speeds from 80 to 130, there's no specific speed range when the shaking starts, and since there are 3 such tires, it shakes both in the front and in the back. It's extremely unpleasant! The steering wheel wobbles, the car vibrates, and it stops after 130 km/h. We didn't last a month, came to an expensive tire shop, told them to check and also check the rims. They rotated them immediately and said - "egg-shaped", but they rechecked everything: disassembled, reassembled, rotated, reassembled, rebalanced, and recommended returning them. They listened to our whole story and recommended returning them. We wrote to Mosavtoshina, they agreed to take them back, came before the inspection, the tire installers looked, nodded, that yes, the defect is visible, and sent them for diagnostics to Moscow. Of course, we got winter tires (without studs) and oh wonder! The car drives smoothly at all speeds, doesn't shake! The mood is great, and the thoughts are that the obvious defect will be identified immediately! After two weeks or more, the response comes that everything is FUCKED!!! - no deviations in balancing were found (I didn't argue about balancing), they're fucking "egg-shaped"!!! It's visible to the naked eye!!! Just leave a white sheet behind the tire on the machine and rotate it - everything is visible!! They sent me papers with some crooked graphs, referring to GOSTs, writing values, but not indicating what the maximum allowable values are... I asked to replace them with the same ones, but possibly from a different batch - no! Mosavtoshina - SHIT!!! I don't want to bash the manufacturer, all the tire installers said that the "tang" is normal and were surprised, usually, they were easy to install and balance, but the defect was visible to them immediately, and the fucking specialists at Mosavtoshina say - no, it's okay, within the norm, but they didn't specify the limit in their SHITTY INVESTIGATIONS.

I got the car in winter, didn't have summer tires, so I had to make a choice. I didn't want to take the stock Continental (Chinese) because every second owner complained that after 120 km/h, vibration started, which, if treated, required expensive balancing.

I read reviews for a long time and decided to take Triangle, after all, the company is well-known here, probably the most well-known and long-standing among the Chinese companies, and the reviews for the TH201 model were normal. And the price, 7k per tire, is just excellent, even compared to others.

What can I say in conclusion - well, really, these are the best summer tires I've had so far. They are really soft and quiet, quieter than my Nokian R3, which came with the car. There are no questions about handling either, but I haven't been in serious rain yet, so I won't lie about how they behave. Most likely, due to their softness, they will wear out faster, but who cares, it's easier to just buy another set.

I've had a good day, I've been choosing tires for a long time, and I decided to take a risk and buy Triangle tires. Before that, I only installed Michelin tires on my cars. I own two cars, a BMW X5 and a BMW 530d. The 530 has narrow 255/45/18 tires, while the X5 has different width tires, 20R 275/40/20 and 315/35/20. I installed all Triangle tires, exactly this model, and they were balanced perfectly without any issues, round and even.

I'll start with the 18-inch radius tires. The tires are comfortable, quiet, and handle the road perfectly, even on wet roads, the grip is excellent. The handling is excellent, and these qualities are present in all speed ranges. I was worried about how they would behave at high speeds. It's one thing to accelerate a car to 200 km/h, but another thing to drive at over 200 km/h for several hours. All my worries were unfounded. The tires performed excellently. With the 18-inch radius and relatively high profile, I have no complaints. The price is very pleasing, even if they wear out after two seasons, it's not a problem to replace them for this price.

Now I'll tell you about the 20-inch radius: my previous Michelin tires on the X5 were somehow very noisy, I bought them new. The rear tires traveled only 40,000 km with non-aggressive driving (I drive very calmly), and they were almost bald. I installed Triangle tires, and what I noticed immediately was that it became much quieter in the cabin. The tires are soft, and the ride is comfortable. Everything I wrote above is also true for this size. The only thing is that the soft sidewall, even with the XL rating, requires good tire pressure on the highway, where there are joints, and the car is pushed down, even at low speeds, it bumps. As for wear resistance, I won't write anything yet, as I've only driven 7,000 km, and so far, everything is fine, the tread remains like new. I won't give stars for wear resistance, as it can only be evaluated after driving 30-40,000 km. The price is more than adequate, and I don't see the point in buying a set for 70,000 or more. Okay, if this Michelin had traveled 100,000 km, but no, it only traveled 40,000 km. I hope my review will help someone with their choice. Good luck and good roads to everyone.

Took based on the experience of using the 201st... as a result, very upset... the road holds on a three, hums terribly, feels bad on wet... in general, I do not recommend at all
