Khumos are just cheapo - u get what u pay for.

falkens are shit. Most notably in the wet, trust me even as little as 30mph round a roundabout is scary.

I know what your saying there mate

Had continental's on my old astra in 17's and they would NOT budge at all in the dry and even in the wet they were awesome

Went to get new ones and they were £150 each

not weird mate, companies do a couple of choices for the same pric,e just ask him if u can do a tyre upgrade on the package, itl cost u extra but as said above, you get what u pay for

I pay around £70-80 for a new avon, none too shabby
