Road tires

Chinese and leading international road tires compared by width, weight, lab tests, wet-weather evidence and dated price.

184 tires · 28 brands · reviewed 2026-11-01 Widths are in millimetres (25C = 25 mm). Open a row for sizes, pressure limits, lab tests, owner reports, prices and sources.

Starting points

Road 25–35 mm

Lowest measured rolling resistance

Bicycle Rolling Resistance drum tests at 28–30 mm measured width, 72 psi, 29 km/h and 42.5 kg. Fast race tires usually trade away puncture protection.

All-season constructions with a wet-grip test

Maker all-season or four-season lines with a measured wet-grip score, highest first.

Pirelli P ZERO Race TLR 4S wet grip 76
Vittoria RideArmor TLR wet grip 74
Pirelli P ZERO Race 4S (tube type) wet grip 73

Wet grip here is tire traction on a wet test drum. It is not a braking-distance or cornering certification, and rim-brake pads, rims and rotors are separate. Lower pressure, clean rims and earlier braking matter as much as the tire.

Budget all-season: up to CNY 250 per tire

None of these tires has enough wet-road evidence to be called a proven all-season choice yet. The lists show what owners report, so you can weigh price against the known risks.

Mainland China and Taiwan brands in 25–35 mm with a dated price of CNY 250 or less for one tire, before shipping. A supported all-season choice needs measured wet grip of at least 80, or at least two favourable first-hand wet reports with none against, and fewer than two reports of bulging or casing failure. Tread pattern, four-season marketing and seller copy are not wet evidence. Confidence: a lab test is strongest, agreeing owner reports are moderate, and one report or conflicting reports are weak. Ordered by wet evidence, then fewer casing reports, then price.

Mainland China

No verified one-tire price within the budget yet.

Each list follows only its stated criteria. A tire missing from a list may simply lack a lab test; missing evidence is not a negative result. No list promises that a tire fits your frame or rim.

Checked on 2026-11-03: keyed Xiaohongshu evidence from bounded searches (the first 16-20 result cards of each query, opened exact posts and their visible comments; not exhaustive), coded owner by owner, plus the Sigma Sports and bike-components catalogues and Bicycle Rolling Resistance's test index. Counted only owners who describe their own riding of this model and, where the model is sold in more than one construction, say which; seller replies, questions, unmounted impressions and reports about other models were left out. STORM R1 reports are not transferred.

Editorial coding of first-hand public reports, not star ratings given by owners. An aspect is rated only when at least 5 owners describe it; 5 is an entry threshold, not proof. Public reports are self-selected, sources differ between tires, and width, pressure, setup and roads vary between owners.

Coded owner reports (13)

Overall verdict unfavourable Tread life mixed 28 mm · Rear about 1,800 km in two months; front about 6,000 km in five months
The rear wore through to the casing after about 1,800 km while the front was still fine at about 6,000 km; the owner summed it up as getting what you pay for. Xiaohongshu public post Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict unfavourable Grip, dry or not stated unfavourable
Found it too hard: the rear stepped out when cornering on descents, so the owner switched to Michelin tires. Road conditions not stated. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Tread life favourable Casing durability mixed Over 3,000 km in about a year
Hard-wearing: the front still showed its centre line after more than 3,000 km. Fine surface cracks appeared after a year, but the owner expects another year of use. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Puncture resistance favourable inner tube · 3,000 km
Ridden with a TPU tube: very good value and no flat in 3,000 km. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Speed feel favourable 70 km
After a first 70 km it felt lighter to accelerate and about 1 km/h faster at the same effort than the stock tires; not a controlled test. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Grip, dry or not stated favourable Speed feel mixed 28 mm · inner tube · First rides
More dry-road grip and high-speed stability than a Michelin Power Cup and comfortable, but slower to spin up; called it good value. Not yet ridden in the wet. Xiaohongshu public post
Casing durability favourable About 2,000 km
No problem so far after about 2,000 km. Xiaohongshu public post
Casing durability unfavourable Just over 1,000 km
The rear sidewall cracked and the tire was scrapped after just over 1,000 km. Xiaohongshu public post
Puncture resistance unfavourable 7,000 km
Punctured several times and was replaced after 7,000 km. Xiaohongshu public post
Tread life favourable 8,000 km
Has ridden 8,000 km on the clincher. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable
Finds the clincher fine in use; the same owner gave up on the tubeless version early. Xiaohongshu public post
Speed feel favourable Grip, dry or not stated mixed 28 mm · 2025-07-16
In an uncontrolled five-tire comparison the 230 g 28 mm tire, the clincher's weight, rolled best and came third of five for grip. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Speed feel favourable Grip, dry or not stated favourable inner tube · 2025-12-26
Chose the clincher rather than tubeless for a new wheelset: quick to accelerate, rolls freely and holds well in sharp corners, though it is harsher over bumps at the owner's high pressure. Xiaohongshu public post

Mixed · 2024-12-29: A creator's two-week power-meter comparison of a Chaoyang tire the post calls the Cobra (眼镜蛇); owners also use that name for this tire, so the exact model is unresolved. Uncontrolled road test: a slower substitute for the GP5000. Xiaohongshu public post
Negative · 2025-09-26: A 28C failed along the sidewall casing after about 500 km; the tire had been mounted against its rotation arrow. Xiaohongshu public post
Mixed · 2025-07-16: A commenter on a budget-tire comparison rated it average overall with acceptable puncture resistance. Xiaohongshu public post
Positive · 2026-02-23: Owner: softer and smoother than a Continental Ultra Sport 3, possibly more side grip in the dry, about 1 mm narrower. Xiaohongshu public post
Mixed · 2025-09-11: Owner: puncture-resistant and durable but heavy (about 280 g), firm and average-rolling, with slight cracking over time; a commenter's new tire leaked through the sidewall edge after 40 km. Xiaohongshu public post
Mixed · 2026-04-13: A rear lasted about a year and nearly 10,000 km with one flat, then cracked deeply enough to expose the puncture layer. Xiaohongshu public post
Negative · 2026-04-16: Front and rear sidewalls cracked after a few hundred road kilometres at 95-100 psi. Xiaohongshu public post

Confirm before buying

Safety warning from the lab: a 21 mm tread on a 28 mm tire, with very thin sidewalls; the reviewers say it can only be used safely on straights and rate it 'Not Recommended'.
Identity and sizes come from the independent lab page; no CADEX product page or readable retailer listing was found.
Measured only 26 mm wide, so its rolling-resistance result sits in the 80 psi band and is not compared with 28-30 mm tires.

Overall verdict favourable Speed feel favourable Puncture resistance unfavourable Wet grip unfavourable 25 mm
Rides the 25 mm and bought more: low rolling resistance and good road feel, but not very puncture resistant and fairly slippery when wet. Xiaohongshu public post Xiaohongshu public post
Speed feel favourable
Narrower than a Continental GSR, rolls easily and is easy to fit. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Tread life unfavourable Puncture resistance favourable About 5,000 km
Good road feel and cheap; puncture protection is acceptable, but it needs replacing at about 5,000 km for a light rider. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Puncture resistance favourable Casing durability unfavourable 28 mm · Over a year
No flat in over a year on a touring bike and easy to fit, but the bead area cracks easily. Xiaohongshu public post
Overall verdict favourable Speed feel favourable Grip, dry or not stated unfavourable 28 mm · 2025-05-16
In an uncontrolled four-tire comparison it tied for the lowest rolling resistance but had the least grip; the owner liked riding it. Xiaohongshu public post

Overall verdict mixed Speed feel favourable Puncture resistance unfavourable 2026-03-31
Rolls really smoothly and seems quicker than a Continental, but a flint fragment cut the casing; the owner will return to Continental after another puncture. Sigma Sports customer reviews
Overall verdict favourable Speed feel favourable 32 mm · 2025-07-11
The 32 mm feels very smooth and lively just under 60 psi; liked enough on a hire bike to buy. Sigma Sports customer reviews

A season on the front did not feel faster than the tire it was compared with and the rubber felt plasticky; the rear would not fit, and the owner advises against buying. Bicycle Rolling Resistance reader comments

The retailer gives inflation figures without calling them maximum pressures.
Neither page calls it tubeless-ready, and Continental names its tubeless-ready versions 'TR'; it is recorded as a tube-type clincher.

No 30 mm size; 32 and 35 mm need a frame with that clearance.

Counted only owners who describe their own riding; star-only ratings, mounting-only impressions and repeats were left out. Corrected on 2026-11-03: the first check of Bicycle Rolling Resistance's index missed this tire's test pages; their reader comments are now read. Comments on a TLR test page count for this tire unless the owner names another version; a report of no grip on wet singletrack is not coded as wet road grip.

Likes the 38 mm but it is not the right tire for this owner: puncture protection is not great, and it did worse than a 40 mm Pirelli on mixed hardpack rides. Bicycle Rolling Resistance reader comments

Overall verdict favourable Speed feel favourable Puncture resistance favourable 2026-05-21 · About 200 miles
Very happy after about 200 miles: rolls well with no punctures yet. Sigma Sports customer reviews
Overall verdict favourable Grip, dry or not stated favourable Speed feel favourable 2026-03-25
Excellent puncture protection and grip; a true all-season training tire that rolls smoothly and fast enough. Sigma Sports customer reviews
Overall verdict mixed Grip, dry or not stated favourable 2025-09-25
Very grippy, but rolling resistance lets it down a little against rival tires, and it is expensive. Sigma Sports customer reviews
Overall verdict unfavourable Speed feel favourable 28 mm · 2025-08-09
Tested extensively in 28 mm: marginally faster than the previous generation but narrower, with a thin, exposed sidewall and inconsistent batches; too expensive for what it is. Bicycle Rolling Resistance reader comments

Corrected on 2026-11-03: the first check of Bicycle Rolling Resistance's index missed this tire's test pages; their reader comments are now read. Xiaohongshu owners were added on 2026-11-04 from threads coded for other tires.

Overall verdict unfavourable Puncture resistance unfavourable tubeless · 2025-09-13 · Long-distance touring
Over 400 g and not worth the weight for this owner: on long tours the rear tire flatted three times, possibly because it was worn, though sidewall protection was fair. Xiaohongshu public post

How tire fields are recorded

Widths and groups: Nominal 700C widths in millimetres. Road lists tires sold in at least one 25–35 mm width; Wet lists tires with a 20–40 mm width and recorded wet-traction evidence.
Weight: The maker's or seller's claim at 28 mm, or the nearest recorded width. Lab-measured weights stay in the test notes.
Lab test: Bicycle Rolling Resistance's public figures: rolling resistance for one tire at 29 km/h and 42.5 kg (80 psi for 25–27 mm, 72 psi for 28–30 mm measured width), static wet grip and tread puncture points. Only tests in the same width band are comparable; tubeless tests use sealant and tube-type tests a butyl tube.
Wet weather: Measured wet grip, maker claims and owner reports are kept apart. Puncture protection is not evidence of wet grip, and tire grip does not describe rim, pad or rotor braking.
Hookless: Approved only when the maker says so; otherwise the status is shown as published. Check the rim maker's tire list and pressure limit as well.
Origin: Brand origin is where the brand is based. Made in is shown only when a source states it.
Price: A dated observation in its original currency with its store and package basis. It is not a delivered price; price sorting converts to US dollars with the dated ECB rate only to order rows.
Owner ratings: Each coded row is one owner of the exact tire and construction who describes their own riding. Seller and brand copy, questions, hearsay, repeats and reports that do not name the construction are left out, and an owner counts once however often they post. Each aspect is coded favourable, mixed or unfavourable; wet grip needs wet riding, and grip covers dry or unstated conditions. An aspect is rated only with at least 5 owners: the share favourable, with mixed counted as half, reads as Favourable from 85%, Mostly favourable from 65%, Mixed above 35%, Mostly unfavourable above 15%, otherwise Unfavourable. Evidence depth is limited for 5–9 owners, moderate for 10–19 and a larger sample from 20; it describes how much was found, not statistical confidence. Ratings describe the widths owners reported and never another width.
Post notes: Short paraphrases of whole public posts recorded before owner-by-owner coding. They describe one rider's tire, are not tests and do not count in owner ratings.
Not stated: The source does not publish the value. It is not a negative finding.

No tire on this page is approved for a particular frame or rim. Check your frame's tire clearance on its model page and your rim's tire and pressure limits before buying.

Coverage: 259 candidates from 35 brands, as of 2026-11-01

184 included · 65 excluded · 10 unresolved

Road outer tires with a current 700C width of 25-35 mm, or 20-40 mm with wet-traction evidence: mainland-China and Taiwan brands found in Chinese marketplaces and XHS, plus leading international lines sold in Asia, Europe and North America. Inner tubes and gravel, MTB and city tires are outside the comparison. This is the discovered roster, not every tire made.

Discovery routes

Bicycle Rolling Resistance road list · 2026-11-01: 183 road tires with public lab figures; no mainland-Chinese brand is listed.
Xiaohongshu search · 2026-11-01: Ten searches (domestic road tires, top domestic tires, Chaoyang/ARISUN, domestic tubeless, JILUER, wet grip, Innova, CST, Kenda, new 2026 tires) and 25 opened posts in one sequential browser session; repeated results showed saturation for domestic brands.
Taobao and Tmall · 2026-11-01: Brand facet for the road-tire query, tubeless listings, official-store listings (Chaoyang, ARISUN, Continental, Michelin, Giant) and dealer or shop listings for CST, Kenda, JILUER, Innova, Maxxis, Pirelli and Vittoria. Follow-up the same day: 14 exact-model searches for the unresolved Chinese and Taiwanese rows, 12 listings opened, six maker-catalog searches (Chaoyang, ARISUN, Kenda, CST, Innova, JILUER) and three broad domestic queries; no further mainland China brand with its own road tire was found, and unnamed generic listings were not added.
Maker catalogs · 2026-11-01: Road ranges from Continental (global, US, German), Pirelli (global and UK), Michelin (UK racing and endurance), Vittoria (international store), Goodyear (US store), Maxxis (US), Kenda (US shop), Specialized (US store), Panaracer (USA store and global site), IRC (US site), CADEX (US store), Giant (UK, US and Australian stores), Hutchinson (global site) and Schwalbe (North American road category and schwalbe.com variant pages, read as server pages because the browser rendered them blank). Continental's Grand Prix 4-Season page has no size table, so a US retailer listing is recorded as seller claims; the CADEX Aero tires have no CADEX product page, so independent lab pages record them.
Brand identity checks · 2026-11-01: Web searches for ZC Rubber/ARISUN, JILUER, Innova and CARNOS; company pages for Panaracer, IRC and Hutchinson.
Entry-level re-check · 2026-11-01: Road tires earlier excluded only for being entry-level were re-checked: official Schwalbe pages (Europe and North America) and the Pirelli catalogue, US retailer pages for the ARISUN Rapide, CST C1406 and Pirelli P4 Sport, web searches for CST C1761, C1720 and C1777, and XHS searches for the Chaoyang Viper and CST C1761, which found no exact-model post.
Budget all-season pass · 2026-11-01: 22 exact-model XHS searches for the cheap Chinese and Taiwanese tires (ARISUN STORM R1, Chaoyang Falcon, Cobra, Chinese knot and Mini Shark, JILUER Chaser and Chaser Pro, CST C3045, C3045N, C1922, C1808, CRD06 and C1406, Kenda K925 and K1092, Innova 3029 and smiley, Maxxis Pursuer) with 39 posts and their comments opened in one sequential browser lane. Owner wet-road reports were found only for the STORM R1 (conflicting), CST C3045 (one favourable), Kenda K925 (one unfavourable) and an unidentified JILUER Chaser-family tire; no exact-model post was found for the C3045N or CRD06. Ten shop listings were re-read for one-tire or pair wording, including local OCR of the sellers' description images: the Chaoyang, ARISUN and JILUER listings do not state it, and the run stopped at a security check on a Taobao listing without a retry.
