Budget tyres should be banned

Gaz37.... kiss this

 

Why would he believe the findings of renault's tests? He should ask his mates which tyres "feel" grippiest.

 

If it ain't broke don't fix it

Where did you get that smiley? It's class

edit. who'd have thought that this would go 5 pages? There are some arguementative b***ers on here.

 

I think it worked out around 120 a corner for the michelins or 80 a corner for some Toyo Proxies, which at 160 a set it did make him think......

But personally my opinion is don't buy a car you can't afford to run properly

 

Its because youre wrong but you dont know it ........ YET!

Eagle F1s every time

last for ages, amazing in the wet, however they are just rubbish for the first 300 or so miles till they are scrubbed in.

And for those that say they cost too much, they don't cost as much as loads of bodywork when you stuff it into a ditch/bus on the first bend

 

toyo's tbh

whats with the really long sentences, why is the forum not splitting them up automatically?

 

They must be good if they can keep Fi@t on the road

 

It could well end up 500 pages then, cos I'm not wrong

So there

 

why not take him for a spin with the tyre of his choice to show him how good they are,and give him a sicky bag aswell

 

Think it would be wasted on him after hed crawled into the passenger footwell to hide

 

Gaz you are arguing with the wrong guy

I woke up with a horses head next to me when i was 10 mins late in paying his invoice

 

I'm up for it, but i think that it would be you that would be terrified by the awesome cornering & braking forces generated by the Vredesteins

 

you want to see him drive his truck

I was the victim of a high speed sideways parking episode.

Sitting in the car thinking what's that noise

looked in the mirror

it was a bit like when the T rex is after them in Jurassic Park, but it was a mitsubishi pickup instead

 

Dont remind me, Ive just had to put 4 tyres on it 360 cheeeerrching

plenty of tread on the tyres buy no side wall left

Bridgestone Duellers by the way

 

Talking about footwells ............ I once took a guy out in a UR Quattro, he did some amateur rallying in a 205, he did actually take the seat belt off and drop in the footwell in fright

 

Which only goes to prove my point, his choice of tyres don't grip!

Had he fitted Vredesteins he wouldn't have been sideways & would have saved money

 

ask Phatty about the pickup



Tyres are OE fitment and came when vehicle was new, with Vredesteins it would have been on its roof, more than once
