Freelander 1 Question About Cheap tyres...I mean really cheap

Well I went to have a look at them over the weekend and wasn't really very impressed. I don't know what the two bands on the side wall of the Latitudes are but these didn't have anything like that, just a plain, very soft, side wall.

I guess they have their place but my missus has a habit of parking by ear on occasion and I would think even the slightest kerbing would write them off.

Never, never skimp on tyres - you really do get what you pay for - and the trouble is that the difference between good and bad really becomes apparent just when you are in the ****e and need the performance that a premium tyre will give you

Totally agree mate. The tyres are the only contact I have with the road. I always fit decent tyres.
