  • The Winrun R330 had a mid pack objective performance, but subjectively it was an easy tyre to drive with understeer balance. It was also one of the cheapest of the group and had the second lowest rolling resistance.

I have a Lexus GSF and interested to see if there is any or much road noise transferred into the cabin. Do these tyres offer a relatively smooth driving experience or more firm?

The noise and comfort of the tyre was graded in this test.

Winrun tyres suck. Completely.
I purchased the car with these fitted to the front and Bridgestones on the rear.
They are hands-down the worst tyres I have every had the misfortune to experience.
Zero wet-weather grip - these tyres are DANGEROUS. There is plenty of tread left, but they are about to go in the bin.
Best avoided.

Had to buy these in a pinch for the rear of my car. Absolutely horrendous steering feel and handling. Super unpredictable and felt awful at higher speeds. It wandered all over the road. Comfort was average and can't comment on life span as these stayed on the car just long enough for me to drive home. Replaced with Michelin PS4S and the difference is astronomically high. Would look at other options.

Tires don't support rain! They reach the limit very quickly and slide easily.
Good behavior on dry ground.

Latest Winrun R330 Reviews

Given 79% while driving a Hyundai i30 (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 45,000 average miles
I sourced these tyres for my younger sister. She drives a Hyundai 130 hatchback 2015 model which she bought brand new but had not changed the Hankook tyres since then and has the car serviced annually. She does not drive the car hard, had 45K on the clock and her tyres had not reached their markers yet but were getting close. She wanted to get new tyres because she felt her tyres were getting hard and brittle and had gone past the six years life span and were now 8 years old. She wanted new tyres but was shocked by how expensive tyres were and equivalent to the brand she had on her car when she bought it. I took her to my Tyrebarn dealer and we chose four fitted and balanced Winrun 330 tyres, including a $60 wheel alignment- total cost was $420. Best other offer she got elsewhere was a mid-range brand similarly fitted for $600. Hankook, Dunlop, Goodyear even more, let alone other 'name' brands. She is very happy with them and says they are quiet, grip well in both wet and dry conditions and maintain the road well. She has no issues with them. This was in 2023. I intend getting Winruns for my 2017 Kia Rondo next year as well. The tyre reviews I have read say these tyres are excellent tyres for the price you pay and perform well.

There's a new all season tire, can it be best?!

If you are into aqua planing, tail sliding and having your family car unsafe then these are the tires for you!! Wet grip is horrible and found myself whilst driving like a granny still losing grip and sliding at roundabouts, don't even bother cornering in the wet!. I have these on 255/35/18 on the rear and 225/40/18 in the front, my worn out Pzero's handled better and regret the day I purchased them, I guess you get what you pay for. Tires have bad longevity as I have had them for 6 months and the fronts are worn by about 9mm, under no circumstances purchase these tyres.

I've gotten these tyres a few weeks ago. I previously had Sailun touring LS tyres. These handle better, much better grip and definitely much better ride. I would use these over the touring LS any day. I believe the Atrezzo elite was a close competitor. Some may say the atrezzo elite was better, but I don't share the same view.

I have never felt more unsafe - bought two run flats for rear to match final cycle for front. I have had four sets on back for one set on front. Back end of car feels loose like on ice or mud, roundabouts in wet are frightening. Car is well maintained, runs and steers in a straight line, though I will get alignment checked in a day or two. The old worn out Potenzas fell far more tight and safe than these cheap, rubbish tyres from PRC. You get what you pay for and back to Potenza for me. My Wincrap tyres are about three months old, have done about 10k, and I’ll happily see them gone.

Vibration city. 3 x wheel balances to all tyres could not salvage. Hands went numb holding steering wheel. Winrun sales rep said no problem with tyres. Is that because they are supposed to rattle the car? I thought my 200 series landcruiser could handle most conditions. Winrun proved me wrong.......

Subaru Impreza (205/50 R16) on mostly country roads for 2,000 spirited miles
Better than expected! I was in the market for used tyres as an emergency buy but the opportunity arised for these brandnew WinRun. First 500Km i was a bit scared of what might happen since i tend to drive fast, curb faster and 99% of my daily driving is done on secondary roads with poor or dirty asphalt. Sometimes gravel, maybe on a weekly basis. Right from the beginning i was surprised at how well they behaved while curbing, not only because of the great grip but the most surprising aspect was how robust the sidewalls are. They don't flex at all and the car behaves splendidly. In the wet, since reviews were poor for this tyre i was a bit concerned but having them installed in December 2020 i still had time for a few weeks of below freezing temps and road ice. And of course, lots of rain! They behaved quite splendidly and i'm not giving them a 10 for "Wet Grip" simply because i'm afraid someone will crash because of my positive review. Î drive a 4 wheel drive car, symmetrical and i'm sure that makes a difference in the wet but i've had Bridgestones before and they were not even closely as good as the WinRuns. Strange? Yeah, for me too. They're now just above 3000 Km and are still behaving as they were when new. Wear seems to be stable, i have them a bit over-inflated but the only thing i would complain is that they're noisy. Anyway, not much of a problem for me because i drive listening to the car and the road. Radio is aalways off. Great tyres! Would love to try Pirellis and will do so if i can afford them when the time comes. If not, it'll be WinRun all over again.
