Just been playing around on the blackcricles site, prices are actually better than I expected.

Anyway, not actually considering them for the LET, but what brand are the 'Budget' tyre it gives you? Is it a decent budget tyre or is it something silly like 'Ling Long' ditch finder 5000+ pro?

Think it depends what they have in stock.

I can't imagine it being a decent brand name tyre. Not sure I'd want to risk it if I was looking for something that was going to keep me on the road.

lol @ Jack.

I guessed it'd be a few budget brands. But what are budget brands these days? Ventus (Kuhmo made) or renamed Pirelli made tyres or is it more like LingLong & Wan Li type tyres from the far reaches of the far far east?

I'd assume it was a large collection of rubber bands and a round bit of steel with instructions on how to wrap them round and leave it at that tbh lol Anything that just says "budget" is going to be the cheapest possible thing they can get hold of for people that don't care what turns up as long as it's round and the right size, it doesn't make sense for them to spend more money on a tyre that, the kind of person buying it, will not realise is good/bad/indifferent.

Il be buying rubbish tyres for the corsa, i know they will try and direct me into the nearest tree/ditch, but tbh, its not worth spending money on decent tyres for that piece of ****.

True, but then again for someone with a rot box everyday car they'll be more intrested in a budget tyre.

Was really just wondering what brand they'd be.
