having driven on a number of tyres on the very same car and being a mechanical engineer thats a petrolhead I believe I would be a perfect candidate to make a good comparison.
so far I have used, Goodyear EGP, Michelin Primacy 3, Falken ZX914, Pirelli Verde P1 all on 205/55/16 size to add comfort compared to the original 195/55/16 the car comes with.
as for the Jinyu's, well I'am using them on the 1 size up 17 rims with oversized 205/50/17 (almost the same as 205/55/16) tyres.
my comments so far would be:
pros:
1) great handling, feedback, dry is great wet is good no complaints at all
2) comfort isnt a Michelin but it sure isnt uncomfy either
3) noise wise its fairly little more noiser which to be honest all tyres are on this size anyway so I would say its par with Michelin etc
4) wear wise nothing comes close to these babies, 24k kms and they are still holding on I estimate they will last upto 35k kms which is great for this size.
cons:
1) dont know the name of this trouble but these tyres very often get brownish,dull looking and I havent ever used any of those solvents etc just simple water based protectors and that was maybe 3 or 4 times.
other than that cant really think of any other trouble.
price wise these are half to even 1/3rd the price of the competition with just as good if not even better results , why bother with the big boys spoiled names/prices?
