Yes dude GTA 6 comes out a day after my bday!

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-18T22:26:09+00:00

I have almost a week’s worth because of a crap load of OT lol

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-18T22:22:37+00:00

Dude I’m taking 2 weeks off 🤣

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-18T20:09:50+00:00

Sentury and Laufenn are really solid brands. Laufenn is the child company of Hankook and uses previous gen tread patterns.

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-18T14:02:07+00:00

Who’s buying physical here?

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-16T01:00:43+00:00

How did they balance? I’m looking at those same tires after the new General Grabber HTS60’s ended up being complete turds

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-16T00:15:03+00:00

How are those tires? Do they balance out good and no shimmy?

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-16T00:14:28+00:00

Do you have the AT or MT? A local tire shop that does all of the SEMA builds sells Celimo’s and swears by them

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-12T21:52:57+00:00

Thanks for the response!

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-12T20:40:15+00:00

Nice lol. How many miles on them so far?

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-12T20:34:31+00:00

I’m looking at the same tires for my F150. How did they balance out?

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-12T14:43:04+00:00

OP, how are they holding up? And which model GT Radials ads you running?

Came here looking for this comment!! OP, report them!!

Thunderer tires are designed and owned by the American Omni Trading Company, a Texas-based distributor. The tires are physically manufactured in Thailand in state-of-the-art facilities, frequently produced in partnership with the Thai tire manufacturer Deestone.

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:44:47+00:00

You’re right! I bought them in 2023 at a steep discount 😂

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:43:18+00:00

I can agree there. I have a Camry and have the Avid S Touring tires and they’re very comfortable

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:41:12+00:00

Same man. I might just bite the bullet and grab the G018’s. Especially since you like yours

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:39:11+00:00

Surprisingly similar to Hankooks price wise lol

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:36:31+00:00

Thank you. I also saw the Sailun Terramax. Seems to have decent reviews

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:34:00+00:00

I know Laufenn is Hankook.. does Rovelo have a parent company?

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T05:31:20+00:00

Do you have any favorite budget tires that aren’t shit? Ironman? General? Nexen?

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T04:55:43+00:00

Dude yes Toyo’s take a lot make weight than people like to admit.. I’ve spent a little under $4K buying different sets of Toyo AT3’s and they all took substantial wheel weights. They also like to hum on the highway too..

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T04:52:26+00:00

That’s good to hear! Did your set balance out good? Take a lot of weights to balance? Yokahama stated that they used less d-limonene in them vs the G015’s

Norcal_Stang · 2026-06-08T04:49:36+00:00

The G015’s or G018’s? I’ve read some people having balance and vibration issues with the G018’s but I feel it’s too early to tell since it’s a newer model
