There is a new version of the LM 32, so I think in this case you are both right. Yes, there is already an LM 32 as cem has stated and there is now a new version.  :y

Fine, but don't state as fact something which is a blatant untruth. :y

Think an apology may be in order mate having looked at a number of references to Blizzak LM 32 tyres dating back to 2009!  It may well be that a new version of this tyre has been released, but that doesn't change the fact that you have wrongly accused a fellow OOFer of being a liar >:(

you cant polish a turd ;D or may be you can ::)
Well, I've seen glowing reviews of Conti SC5s, and we know for a fact that (on an Omega) they are complete, utter, shite.

Hence 2 of mine came off after less than 4k miles, and I'm saving pennies to get rid of the remaining 2 ;)

Don't you recall, they ended up on the MV6 whilst the Dunlop TTs were on the (lowered) Elite...

Fair comment, and I am happy to apologise Cem.

I also apologise for foolishly believing the publicity blurb in the link. :-[ :-[ :-[

Indeed. And non oe size wheels.

 So, according to cems rules, no experience on that car is of use to anyone here. (Unless they have the same set up)


Much like the weather, roads and driving conditions in Turkey, bare little resemblance to UK.
