Linglong tires

[XLT and me]

I have a set of 265/70/17 Linglong all terrains i pulled off my old beater Avalanche before she went to the great scrapyard in the sky. They only have about 10k on them, lot of tread left and in great shape. Thinking about throwing them on the ranger and using them up. Anyone ever run these tires, and what are your thoughts on them. I don't off road, but do use rough forest service roads when out hunting and fishing. They were fine on the Avalanche, so i suppose they would be ok on the ranger?Thanks in advance for any input.

I've never even heard of them before this thread. I am not a huge brand-name snob type but with tires, I stick to the big guys with my favorite being Michelin. Especially on the higher horsepower vehicles I have run.

If you trust them, go for it. I like to get the best rubber I can under me for safety/not being stranded reasons.

LOL ??

I didnt think anyone here would bother with those here!! I have seen one set before and all I could do was laugh!!

If you want to use them go ahead but I would suggest getting a good name brand tire afterwords.

lol I saw some Linglongs on tiktok. Tires are the only part of your vehicle that touches the road, but I would probably run them.

as much as i do not wanna admit it, some pretty good tires are made overseas. i try to avoid china tires. but, ive had some good tires from thailand japan singapore and india...
its all in the details.
i say if they are still in good shape maybe keep them as spares at least.

Yea they were just cheap tires i threw on the Avalanche, I knew it's days were numbered so i didn't want to spend a lot.
Now they are just sitting in the garage and
thought i would use 'em up as a summer tire. Didn't know if anyone else had run them on anything. If i was buying new tires
for the ranger i would go with a much better tire/brand! Thanks for the input guys, i appreciate the feedback.

Hell no.

Don't cheap out on tires people.

Lol I run about 400 miles a day on recaps, 5 days a week. I agree about using good tires, but sometimes good enough is good enough.

To each their own.

I love my Falken Wildpeaks, which are made by a Japanese company with long experience and a great reputation, so it is not really a question of U.S. vs. overseas when it comes to quality alone. But I feel safer with the larger international or American brands, as their products are regularly rated and tested over here. Still, getting the Ling Lings "free" so to speak is a pretty good incentive to try them out...
