Who makes Lionhart Tires and are they worth it?

Why high-performance automobile, truck, and SUV drivers are astonished by Lionharts.

Who makes Lionhart tires?

If you need new tires for your car, truck, or SUV, the owner of your local tire shop might suggest a set of Lionharts. At a fraction of the price of an expensive brand and with a wide range of sizes and aspect ratios, these tires are a popular choice for people on a tight budget who need large tires.

Lionhart tires have been on the American market since 2013, when they first went on sale.

Tires made by Lionhart are made by Turbo Wholesale Tire, which is based in Los Angeles, California, and has at least two types of tires that aren’t made by anyone else.

Both the Lexani and Lionhart tire brands are owned by Turbo Wholesale Tires. Lexani tires are not the same as Lexani Wheels, which is a different company in a similar but different business.

Lionhart tires are made in either China or Thailand, depending on the type.

From a 2020 recall, it looks like both Lexani and Lionhart tires are made in Sentury tire plants.

Model-specific Lionhart technologies

1. Lionhart Tread depth indicator (LH Eleven)
2. Silica enhanced tread compound (LH-Eleven)– This not only makes the tire stronger, but it also makes the tread less flexible and improves performance in other ways, such as lateral acceleration, stopping, and reducing hydroplaning.
3. Run Flat technology (LH-403)– This tire can fix itself and hold itself up on its own. It also has a stronger inner structure to keep it stable when running over things that can puncture tires and after a blowout.
4. Harmonic Tire (LH311 Harmonic tire)– Tire technology that uses a combination of balanced, centered, and deep tread patterns to keep steady contact with the road in any direction. So, the ride is smooth and quiet.

Recalls

Lionhart Lionclaw HTs with sizes LT275/65/R20 and production dates between November 14, 2017 and June 22, 2018 are being called back on March 3, 2020.

From what the recall says,

“Because of the way the subject tires are built, when they are made using a two-step process, they may have a smaller margin of performance reliability. This problem could cause the rim to come away from the tire, which would make a crash more likely.

Are Lionhart tires any good?

Like any online shopper who wants to know more about a tire brand, I’ll look for reviews on big third-party seller sites and YouTube. SimpleTire is my go-to third-party site because its reviews seem to come from real buyers, not bots or people who were paid to write them.

From the reviews I’ve read and the movies I’ve watched (below), it’s clear that Lionhart tires are good Asian tires.

Lionhart Tires knows a lot about the tire business. They’ve seen how famous high-performance light trucks like Silverados, GMC Sierras, and Ram 1500s, SUVs like the Jeep Grand Cherokee, and muscle cars like the Dodge Challenger/Charger, Chrysler 300, Ford Mustang, etc. are.

Lionhart also knows that getting bigger wheels and tires is a popular upgrade, so they’ve teamed up with the right tire factories to offer a wide range of widths and sizes to meet that need.

People who buy Lionhart tires are happy with how well they work for the price.

For example, a 245/45/20-inch tire is often found on new Ford Mustangs and some older Corvettes. The price for a Lionhart HF-503s, LH Performance tire in that size is about $120. A tire of the same size from a high-end brand will cost at least twice as much.

The LH-503s were great for this C5 Corvette owner.

“These (LH-530s) grip a lot better than I thought they would,” John Drives Anything says.

“I thought I’d be able to go from 0 to 60 in six seconds because I’d lose so much grip, but for what they are, these grip pretty well. I’m happy with that for what these tires are.”

In this study of his size 295/30/22 Lionhart LH-10 tires, he compared them to his old, much more expensive Nitto 420S tires. You can watch the video below, but he basically says that the Lionharts don’t grip as well as the Nittos, but when it’s wet, they do better than his older Nittos. About $170 bought a pair of new LH-10s in that size, while $270 bought a pair of new Nittos.

Oscar Orozco writes on SimpleTire, “I have a 2008 Suburban LT with 24″ custom wheels and 295-35R24 Lionhart LH-TEN tires.”

“The Suburban drives really well, and there is no road noise at all. So far, so good. I’m very happy with these tires, and I highly recommend them for any car. I will buy these tires again for sure. I also have a 2003 F150 with 22-inch wheels, and I’ll soon buy a set for it.”

This through review of Lionharts on 22s was my favorite part. His review says that not only are Liorts great, but they also don’t bother him at triple-digit speeds.

No matter how much you spend or how hard you drive or how big your wheels are, high-performance tires for big cars and trucks only last so long.

If you buy Lionharts so they can go fast around the track, you might be upset quickly.

But if you know you just need replacements and can’t afford OEM tires right now, but you’re smart enough not to drive on tires that are almost completely worn out, Lionharts are a good compromise. They work well enough and cost just the right amount.
