I run a repair shop and change tires for customers every day, so I see a lot of Linglong tires. They're a great example of cost-effective domestic brands, especially popular for family cars and SUVs. The advantages of these tires are quite obvious—noise control is decent, so road noise isn't too annoying when driving in the city. In terms of wear resistance, they rank above average in their price range. For example, my buddy's Corolla has been running on Linglong tires for 60,000 kilometers, and the tread is still deep. However, the grip is just average for aggressive driving. Once, I saw a Civic skid while taking a corner in the rain—it was using Linglong tires. If you're on a budget and want something reliable, Linglong is definitely worth considering. After all, swapping four tires can save you around 700-800 yuan compared to foreign brands.
