[quote][i]Originally posted by Andrew[/i] [quote][i]Originally posted by LiVe LeE[/i] I wrecked a tyre when I was away on business, found a dodgy back street tyre garage in the docks where I was working; as the Pirellis were a few thousand miles old but nowhere near replacing, I didn't want to have to replace both fronts as there was nothing wrong with the other tyre. He gave me a choice of a part worn pirelli to match but it had significantly less tread than my other good tyre or a brand new 'German' tyre; either was £35. I went with the new tyre solely as for £35, if it only lasted half as long as the good pirelli I had left, it would still outlast it. How wrong was I, it lasted the 200mile trip home and that was it moral of the story, I'd rather buy a part worn branded tyre than a similar priced cheap new tyre [/quote] Fucking hell mate :lol: I think you got unlucky there mind: I had 2 budget on my Corsa Van i did 4k which seemed ok (don't think they even had a readable name). Also had them on my Company Ford Connect when i had that. Seemed to wear after around 16 - 18k on the front but for £50 a corner i was happy. It wasn't really a sport car so didn't matter about grip. Putting remoulds on a Golf 1.4 TSI though :o Cheap bodge for MOT and sale on my side... Never heard back from the buyer so hopefully they go home ok :lol: [/quote]
