    just saw your post......I never bought off brand tires until I had to due to "no $$$". I usually go to Firestone for service.... told the sales guy I'm looking for tires on the cheap for my daily driver E150 Ford Conversion van....he comes up with a good deal on 4 Primewells....never heard of them but bought 'em....I have not experienced any trouble at all....no more road noise than the Firestones I had on before....don't usually recommend anything....don't want to piss anyone off....someone posted they're made in China....if I knew that I never would have bought 'em....anyway, that's my story....oh yeah, I've had them on my van for about 3 years....good luck with your decision

    General GMax A/S 03 tires are 123 ea on treaddepot with free shipping so about the same price as you were looking at for primewell. Tread depot is good to go, I have ordered from them multiple times, always great to deal with. The cooper RS3As are 130ea with free shipping.

    On an E150 I went from OEM Michelin to a Goodrich Commercial Truck tire. Those Goodrich's should be renamed Badpoor.
    The sidewalls were so weak on the Interstate I the steering wheel never stopped correcting.

    Ever since I am careful what I put on a car.

    I recently put Firestone, Ecopia, owned Chinese Factory tires on 2 cars and I am very impressed with them.
