Wanli tires

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone here has Wanli tires. I just ordered a set of RH Evo C2s and they come with Wanli tires. They are 215/45/17 Z rated. The guy told me they are an identical copy of the Yokohama's. I asked him about an upgrade to Falkens or Kuhmo's and he said it wasnt worth the money cause they are actually good tires *he said he has them on his Z3 but who knows if he is teling the truth*. Anyone have any experience with these?

Thanks,
ELi

OMFG... they make knockoff copies of tires????????

I'll apply my usual knockoff rules... it's worth it to get the original.

Some times a company will offer an off name brand of the same Product, Like Eagle/Mitsubishi Ford/Murcury Chevy/GMC both offer the same cars, but you pay more for one(pay for the name). The same can happen with tire companys. These tires could be MFGed at the same plant as the Yoko's but just offered under a different name.
