Does anyone know anything about these?

I purchased them recently for my new konig unknowns.

Never heard of them. Tell us how they feel when you get them.

I personally would have gotten some Michelin PS-2's if you wanted the best.

Um.... stay away from that tire.... just my opinion. They have no tire and dont show any good pictures of the tread or anything. Quoted from the site:

"Triangle has built its success through an unparalleled commitment to quality and innovation. In order to meet aggressive annual growth targets, Triangle developed a world-class research and development team and a state-of-the-art production facility. As a customer of Triangle Tires, you will benefit from quality that rivals the Major Brands, prices that rival imports and an impressive customer support network."

Does this mean they are better than Michelin's and everything else? Even though they have no performance tire?

I got a few sets in stock. They're cheap. Some people don't care about name brand or tread life. They just want something cheap to go on their cheap wheels. Chances are, they're going to hit a pothole or something and damage the tire before it's worn out anyway. Why buy an expensive tire if you're going to be replacing them often?

Quality wise, I'm sure they're on par with the other cheap China/Korea tires like Nexen, Wanli, Sonar, ect. The tread seems softer than the others, I'll tell you that much. I'll input more feedback when I sell some and see them down the road.

....never hear of them...looks good tho

Well they seem ok for now...

Yeah they are not the best tires around, they get noticeably noisy at around 47km/h and up, which can be somewhat annoying, but i guess i could get used to it in time. or if i blast the radio....

however i think ill be upgrading to a better brand of tire come spring
