£100 for 4 tyres? dint know they were that cheap!
try em out and see what there like for that , but personally for a bit more cash i would get some better ones at end of day thats what ur car relys on if u have to slam on ect ,which is why i dont mind buying good tyres

I got them on my Astra, £50 each for 17's isnt bad. They've lasted very well, had them for 18 months and hardly any wear on them. Feck all grip in the wet tho
THey're manufactured by Avon
