BlackHawk tires

[Urshurak776]

Hi Everyone,

My sons 2014 Kia Rio needs to last another year or so (burns oil and just getting a bit old.) He needs new tires. I was in Mavis getting an alignment (he hit a curb....) and they offered me (4) Blackhawk Street-H HH01 BK XL for around $89. They also gave me a military discount on installation. 50,000 mile warranty. Seem to ride really nice. I'm just hoping they last for another year or so.

Anyone ever heard of these?

89 for 4 or 89 each

Sailun makes them in China and Vietnam.

I have been selling them as my cheapo line of tires for a few years. No complaints yet. Have a set of their truck tires on my Blazer.

Never heard of them, but I suspect just like most any China tire that makes it into US repair shop chains, they'll perform just fine. Best technology / treadlife? Probably not, but they'll be safe tires that should hold up for a few years and provide adequate performance. That brand is made buy Sailun, a reputable Chinese brand that makes a lot of commercial tires for the US market.

If the son hit a curb, why isn't he getting the alignment? Or tires on the car he drives? My kids (have two approaching driving age) have a rude awakening coming if/when they hit a curb; they'll either fix it themselves or work for it... Not judging, different strokes for different folks, just trying to understand the logic.

Absolutely. We got an alignment. Plus 4 tires. He’s paying me back. I assure you

Thanks for info on tires. They seem pretty nice.
