SimpleTire’s view on Radar Dimax AS-8 tires
If you are looking for an affordable set of all-season tires with high-performance capabilities for your performance and premium vehicle, then the Radar Dimax AS-8 might be the right choice for you. Its all-season tread, paired with an asymmetrical tread pattern that resists uneven tread wear, and increased wet and dry grip, makes the Dimax AS-8 a good choice. Additionally, the up to 60,000 mile limited manufacturer tread life warranty with Radar’s Protection Program, makes the deal even more attractive.
Also, consider Yokohama Geolandar X-CV, if you want better longevity (7.4 v 7.1), slightly better traction (8.2 v 8.1), and better brand recognition. However, the Dimax AS-8 is considerably lower priced and offers better handling (8.3 v 7.9).
Vehicles the Radar Dimax AS-8 is a good replacement tire for
As Radar Dimax AS-8 is available in a variety of tire sizes, it can be used as a good replacement tire for vehicles such as 2018 Dodge Charger, 2015 Chevrolet Impala, 2018 Jeep Compass, and more.

bought the incorrect size, but love them
So far these tires are amazing. I put Radar tire on my truck and have been impressed so figured I would get them for my Pacifica. You can hear a little road noise, but nothing loud. As for mileage, I haven't had them but for a couple weeks.

I put these tires on a Pacifica. Installing the tires on the rim took a little extra than most. I had one an 1/8" out of round, but that's pretty normal. It won't balance correctly at first. The trick is to ride it 50-100 miles in 80 degree or better heat and rebalance. You'll find it'll come out if it's out of roundness and balance just fine 95% of the time. Simple Tire was quick to get the tires at a very good price. Tires are smooth and quiet. I'm anxious to find out the tire wear; time will tell.
Purchased these tires from Walmart on 12-24-2021. They now have 15,000 miles on them and are almost down to the wear bar. They were rotated every 5,000 miles. These tires are garbage. Don't get sucked in by the price.
Good all around tires for the money. This is the 4th set I bought. I drive a lot and all over and would buy again when needed.
The tires are awesome. I shopped around and simular tires where twice as much and more foe installation. I choose a install shop and the tires where shipped directly there and getting them installed was as easy as pie. Will be buying my next set here.
