    Lol :)

    This comment here proves conclusively that you have absolutely no
    idea what you're talking about :)


    Pretty much when all he can do is quote some random review which may
    or may not be correct.

    Go verify! Should be easy for you to do!

    I even provided links



    My experience with "budget" tyres is at first they seem okay but
    after a few kms they get worse and by the time they near the end of
    their life

    His tyres aren't *budget*. They are noted as midrange.

    yes. MG aren't stupid. they're not going to put crappy tyres on their
    cars and risk getting a bad reputation


    they are getting sketchy, opposite with premium tyres which tend to
    retain their grip and handling right up to when they need to be
    replaced.
    Next week the Golf is getting a set of Michelin Primacy 5's fitted,
    double the price of a cheap Chinese tyre but there are also other
    tyres even more expensive than Michelin.

    The tyres are made by a Taiwanese company.

    everything you post proves conclusively that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. I've never known anyone more full of
    themselves than you.

    Lol :)

    Felix, you are the absolute fucking *last* person who should ever be commenting about tyres :)

    Their main advantage is that they are cheap.

    What they are, is *irrelevant. We were talking about tyres in general,
    and somehow the cheap tyres fitted to Felix's cheap car became the focal point.

    Fucked if I know how or why....

    You, a proven liar, are the last person who should ever be
    commenting about tyres or anything else automotive.
