Default Does anyone know about these tires: RADAR DIMAX AS-8

All season tire most likely made in China. Sold at Walmart? Please tell me what you know as I'm interested in putting them on my car.

No personal experience with that brand. But if all seasons are what you want, then I would at least go with a known brand. All Seasons themselves are a slight compromise from a dedicated winter/summer setup.

I’ve had good experience with Toyo Proxes 4 Plus in 19” fitment for 997. I used to have Bridgestone RE970AS on the car previously, but they stopped making them in 19” sizes, so rarer to find now.

If you drop down to 18”, there are plenty of good options - Continental DWS06, Bridgestone RE980AS. I currently run the RE980AS on the car now.

Out of curiosity.. why put an unknown brand of tire on your 911 and plan to use it in all kinds of weather conditions? Seems like putting a known quantity on the only thing physically connecting to car to the road surface would be advisable.
