Agree about the safety aspect. Though I sometimes justify the cheaper purchases like the Westlakes with the reason that the car is pretty much only used in city driving. My father is Taiwanese, grew up with Nankang tires, and swears by their quality. Both the Granvia and Santa Fe now use Nankangs. The Carnival gets Bridgestones though. Lucky bloke. [emoji23]

Around 2.5-3mm remaining tread. Still above the 1.6mm threshold. Actually I was able to run with the same set of tires for almost another year until I sold the car.

So it wasn't really worn past useability. It's typical for cheap tires to drastically suffer in terms of grip as they wear out.
