Westlake is the flagship international brand of Zhongce Rubber Group (ZC Rubber), a Hangzhou-based manufacturer that is the largest tyre producer in China and sits among the world's ten biggest. The range covers passenger cars, SUVs and vans through to truck, bus, agricultural and industrial fitments. It suits drivers who want a wide, keenly priced choice backed by a large-scale maker.
A directional touring pattern for passenger cars, with drainage grooves and a long-wearing tread compound.
The Z-401 uses a strongly directional V-shaped tread that channels water and slush away from the contact patch, with a sipe pattern intended to find grip on wet and snow-covered roads. ZC Rubber's compound is formulated to stay workable across a wide temperature range while helping the tread last. In independent group testing it recorded low rolling resistance, though it finished behind premium rivals for wet braking and grip in snow. It is aimed at drivers of ordinary passenger cars looking for a budget-friendly choice.
