Has anyone run Vitour Galaxy Tyres on their rides!

Trying to make a call on tyres for the 62. I've looked at the following tyres here in NZ and they aren't cheap.
BF Goodridge nearly $900 ea
Hercules $500 ea,
Cooper Cobra $380ea
Vitour Galaxy $190, but they seem to have some very good reviews on them.

Never heard of them (no surprise there).

Cooper Cobras are pretty much a go-to around here, but they are a lot cheaper here, too. They make great tire smoke.

Hi Gav my car has Cooper Cobra tires they ride smooth all the way up to 100 mph

Wow, can someone here buy them and ship them to you cheaper?

Yeah just started looking to see what's available in the US now, although our exchange rate is rubbish and has been for a while now.
IS there any major tyre outlets that are best to try in the states!

Thanks

Even Summit sells tires, don't know if they are competitive or not.
