I just bought 4 new Primewell tires for my Toyota. My question is are these tires normally this LOUD! Goodness im not sure if it‘s a bad wheel bearing or just the tires. These tires are extremely cheap imported tires from China but im wondering if anyone else is experiencing or has experienced this noise issue with these tires. I guess I should of paid the extra money for better tiresthe noise I get is a shooosh like noise. Could be wheel bearing but was also told Primewell tires are noisy!
You get what you pay forenjoy.
Buy cheap, you get cheap. These are cheap chinese tires, they will be noisy. Another thing you may not have thought about is safety
They are bottom of the barrel tires. My mom got a set on her car a few years ago (amidst protests from myself). The ones on the front flat out failed about a year after she got them. Both split along the shoulder of the tread (on the same day), and wouldn't hold air, they had about 10k miles on them. At first we though it was vandalism, given that both failed at the same time, but they were split on the inside (facing the middle of the car, not the outside), and had cracks all around. They just failed. After a round of I-told-you-so's, I first took the car to the place where she bought them (chain tire store), they said that they definitely failed, but there was no warranty for structural defects, only treadwear. I told them that that was outrageous, they said they could get me two more Primewells at a pro-rated rate, and that was all they could/were willing to do, and it would be about 3 days before they could get that particular size in. I told them that I certainly didn't want the tires replaced with such s**t tires and to forget it. I went down the street to a warehouse club, and promptly ordered a set of Michelin Pilot Sport AS3+'s , which arrived the next day. These tires are far, far superior to the crap Primewells. I rest a bit eaiser knowing that my mom is riding around on quality tires. The Michelins impressed me so much that I got a set for my Mustang when the factory Pirelli's wore out. TL/DR Had a bad/dangerous experience with Primewell tires. Never cheap out on tires or brakes for your car.
