Nope... never heard of them. What's the tread-wear and traction rating?

The tread pattern looks like the Yokohama AVS Sport.

I own a set of these 195/50/15 Wanli tires and I like them alot. It also helps that I get them cheap because I sell them. They seem to actually have really good tread wear and handle very well in rainy conditions.

Wanli wheels are made in China and shipped out of HK. I remember this when I was looking for tires for my CRX. I didnt know the company so I went against it. But the guy said they are the same quality as Kuhmo and other comparitive tires.

Ive heard of Wanli before. When I was gettting my new rims, i was gonna buy Wanli's, but the guy working at the shop told me that they were crap. I've never used them myself though so i dont know. But I thought I'd take his word for it cause he was the one that was actually selling them. He told me wanli and nankang are both .

Yeah but when I buy tires I look at will they last me on the streets. I use different tires for the track. Also drifting does tend to wear out tires extremly fast.
