Tigar of Pirot, the local brand. I think they used to make the Trayal brand for a while, or was it their own brand... whichever. They are a tad cheaper and a tad below the mark, but then the difference between the new and old tires is more than the difference between expensive and affordable. So I replace them a bit sooner.

As my son-in-law would say, „man running behind car gets exhausted, in front of a car, tired“.
