Rotalla RU01 S Pace 275/30 R19 BMW 5 Series M Sport ( E60 ) 30,000 miles October 28, 2025
I drove the tires for 3 summer seasons. The first two seasons the tires held up excellently, considering their price class. Good braking in the dry, ok braking in the wet, as I have always approached cautiously considering that in really heavy rain I felt the car a little unstable. The mileage was about 30,000 km and in the third year they still had grip, they were soft but they twisted. The whole car started to bounce. The tires were stored properly while they were on the rims. For their price class I think they are ok but because of the twisting especially of the large sizes it is a deal breaker for me.

Dynamo STREET H MU02 275/30 R19 BMW 535d M Sport 4,500 miles January 22, 2024
Purchased a second set now previously branded Blacklion champoint bu66. Fly through alot of tyres with mainly spirited driving. 245/35/19 on front. Used Dunlop rt maxx, Pirelli p zero , Conti contact sport 6, & Avon. Had a puncture unluckily in the sidewall unrepairable on the branded tyres and it was replaced intially with these as a set on the rear to keep me going for abit but i stuck with them as i didn't notice much difference until pushed very hard compared to premium but the road feel & feedback is very similar. So put these on the front too. Very decent in the rain too when pushed but will not let go without the driver having the feedback. Imo iv almost halved the cost of tyres with little sacrifice and not changed my driving style either. These tyres last longer than the top brands if you want ultimate grip and performance can only point to the MIchelin ps4 tyre but these do a similar job to the brands tried and tested listed above. Low noise good comfort at any speed. The vehcile is also polybushed all round and sitting on coilovers, so good grip is key. Yes iv skimped out by buying budgets for my torque monster but i class these as performance tyres from my experience. Not many know about this tyre or brand created in Vietnam by the Sailun group to compete with the leading tyre brands at a budget price great research has gone into arguably 'copying' & developing what makes a premium tyre and i think they have achived this successfully with the design and materials used.

Found the wall strength to be poor. If hit a pothole or small object, tyre would bubble on the wall.

Nankang NS2 275/30 R19 Jaguar 5.0 XK Portfolio February 25, 2023
Not good when roads are a bit damp, not so bad when the roads are very wet, can’t even pull away with hardly any throttle without wheelspin so do not inspire confidence, they remind me of Pirelli’s that were fitted to my previous Jaguar Xj8, was like skating on ice if the roads were damp, especially if salted. They were on the car when I bought it and decided I will buy new 19” wheels and try different make of tyres, I wouldn’t buy the Nankangs

RoadX RXMOTION 4S 275/30 R19 Mercedes Benz 8,000 miles October 11, 2022
After being convinced by my local tyre agent to try these, I've had nothing but problems.. three of the tyres bubbles on the side walls and had to be replaced under their lifetime accidental warranty...Three weeks ago in France the offside rear delaminated at 80 mph....I'm lucky to still have a car. Euromaster in france said the tyre was substand chinese rubbish and replaced it with a pirelli p zero... Back in the uk I had the other side checked and the tyre was found to be also delaminating on the inside edge...Replaced that with a p zero aswell...The car not only has been transformed but my fear from this happening again has been restored...I will never buy Road X again...They are rubbish in my opinion and should not be used on high performing vehicles..

Ovation VI 388 275/30 R19 BMW 330D Touring 600 miles April 26, 2021
Went through a set in less than 10000km. I drive alot but these just worn so quickly i didn’t even i time to replace them. Worn down to the cord. Yes they cheap and perform really well for what you get. But they not worth it if you drive more than most people... Mind you i drive super aggressive, but i had front tires last three sets of rear tires. But of all the tires i gone through these where the worst. However they did perform the best also. Only other negative is they might be a bit to soft when corning. I bit spongy but does mean better comfort.

Michelin Power Cup Evo 275/30 R19 BMW E46 M3 2,000 miles October 6, 2020
Very capable tyre that suit’s both my driving style and the e46 m3 chassis and the only tyres I have used that are better than the cup 2 evo are the pz4 Pirelli pzero and the pilot sport 4s. Pz4 is the best in the wet and the 4s are slightly better in a mixture of wet and dry conditions. The wear of the pz4 is the biggest downfall being twice as bad as the 4s

So I purchased these 20,000kms ago on the back of your recommendation and have not been disappointed.
I've got a big modern RWD S/Charged Manual Australian Sports Sedan now with 600hp, any tyre would struggle with the massive torque numbers(900Nms), these are no exception, more of a GT tyre than a track tyre, I drive with T/C on and the rubber does a stella job of holding on, accelerates well, loads of grip in the front (245 35 19s) when tipping it in. Back end is good, nice and progressive as the limit gets exceeded, quiet on the Motorway, roars a little on the coarse chip B roads in my area...not excessive.
Just Racked up 20,000kms , the fronts have about half wear left, the backs with having to tame the beast is about two thirds worn. I've dropped the recommended pressures and have gone for 38fr and 36rr, found that the rears were wearing in the middle from over inflation or heat.
Epic in the wet, stable at big numbers... Love the tyre...Bang for your buck nothing comes close in my mind.

Cheers from NZ
