Wanli Motorhome Tires

[joezuki]

Is anyone running or know anything about Wanli Motorhome Tires (245/70/19.5) I can buy a set of 6 plus the spare for $2200.00 installed. They are made in China but I have not been able to find reviews for Motorhome use.

Got 6 22.5" RY023 Yokohamas for $2500. These are 16 ply rated tires. Stuck one of the old tires in the basement for a spare. Carried it around for 3 years and finally threw it away.

I guess what we're all saying is that gambling on an unknown tire for a couple of hundred bucks is not worth the risk.

I don't know anything about Wanli tires. But, maybe it's worth giving them a try? They may be a good deal or they may be a waste of time and money.

Several years ago I took the Michelin tires off our 96 Southwind and replaced them with Hankook.
The Hankooks worked well and were cheaper than the Michelin's. Many love them but, I would not waste my money on Michelin. I think they're overpriced and overhyped. JMO

Another option to consider would be Double Coin tires. I have no experience with them but have read several good reviews.

Keep us updated on your decision. If you buy the Wanli's let us know how they perform.

The same store had the two brands with identical tread (a miracle coincidence?) with one Chengu the other Wanli, but only 1 Wanli and three Chengu's. I purchased two. The gave the same performance as rebranded Wal-Mart tires. Same mileage and all of the Chinese tires lost an average of 8 lbs of air pressure a month. Switched to good tires and no air leakage.

I bought 22.5 Toyos for $408 each, $2456 plus tax for 6

why go China Bomb (thats what all chinese tires are called around here)

when you can get name brands for a good price
that 10% extra price, gets lots better tire

Do you have actual experience with Wanli's for motorhomes or just making a statement

I hope you have better luck than I have had. $80 toad Michelins are measuring 5x longer wear and no problems as compared to $55 Chinese rags. I have Cooper tires on Quicksilver. One dose of @#$%&! tires is a potent lesson.
