I haven't had these tires for long, with a mileage of less than 10,000 km on them.
It's too early to talk about their durability, but I've noticed that the rubber is very soft. When parking on asphalt, it leaves clearly visible tire marks. I think it might wear out faster than a harder tire.
This softness is good for civilian use on one hand, as you can drive out of your yard and the tire grips immediately, without needing to warm it up. However, during aggressive driving in warm weather, it might lose traction. There was an instance where the tire squealed when braking before the ABS kicked in. Although this model is designed for civilian cars and is unlikely to be used by anyone on a track, it's definitely worth considering for such vehicles.
When replacing the tires, I noticed that a vibration started around 130-150 km/h, but disappeared when going faster. I'm not sure if I can blame the tires, as the vibration is more noticeable when accelerating, which suggests a mechanical issue rather than a problem with the tires. Nevertheless, it's worth paying attention to this and reading other reviews on the topic.
I don't remember the exact details, but it seemed to me that a lot of weights were added during balancing.
A huge plus is the price. For this price, it's like they're giving the tires away for free (around $3.5 per tire for a 16-inch size).
In conclusion: if I can resolve the vibration issue without blaming the tires, I don't see any downsides to purchasing them at this price. I would buy them again.

Bought for a work car so as not to bother with re-shodding and queues for tire fitting
The rubber is soft and quiet, that's a plus
I think it's unlikely to catch a hernia due to softness
Today I drove in the rain, the braking is good, but in aquaplaning, it loses a bit, you need to be on the lookout
I think it passes in the range of 40-50 thousand km
I'm curious what will happen next in the winter
Handling due to softness is so-so, if you want a clear grip, it's not for you- Vehicle:

The tires have proven themselves, having already driven over 40,000 km, and so far everything is fine, no bulges have appeared, they handle well on both wet and dry roads, and about 30-40% of the tread remains. Overall, I'm satisfied with the tires.

This tire vibrates at speeds of 110-130 km/h. I have balanced it several times at different tire shops, but it doesn't help. It's warped. I don't recommend buying it, as it's impossible to drive over 100 km/h on the highway.

For such a cost, good tires. In terms of noise, they are not inferior to well-known brands. In fact, I have a twofold impression of these tires. I drove on a Chinese tire last season, decided to take new ones, but these. The previous Maxxis left a better impression. These tires drive well, but there is a feeling of skidding in turns, however, it's controllable. I've driven 1500 km, they handle ruts well, I haven't noticed aquaplaning. On dirt roads, I have no complaints, although I didn't go off-road. Overall, not a bad option for the money. How long they will last is unknown, as there is no wear and tear yet. My previous Chinese tires lasted four seasons.
They are not suitable for winter, so my ratings are just for fun :)

After 500 km the noise disappeared (so to say, it was run-in)
Well balanced.
Not bad tires for their money
On a common road, it's just right
Doesn't float in the heat
Holds a little water
Small gravel is swallowed fairly well.
Wear is like all tires of this type.

Very satisfied. The price to quality ratio is excellent, the sidewall is a bit soft. The mileage is not big, so I don't know about durability

Bought based on reviews. Tires liked, not noisy, hold the road. Suitable for everyday city driving. The price-quality ratio is satisfactory. It's too early to talk about wear, the mileage is small.
