Can we not have?
« on: 07 November 2011, 22:47:36 »

A best avoided tyre sticky in Gen Car Chat? It seems to be a common question about which tyres to avoid etc. I'd gladly do a list  :y

I suppose, but you could have dangerous budget tyres?

Some would say Falkens are dangerous, others get 37k+ out of them  ::)

As above really, whats bad for some is good for others.

Might be some legal issues there though.......  ???  If tyres are rated as dangerous/crap/ditchfinders etc on a sticky, then that might be interpreted as the views and opinions of the forum, as opposed to anecdotes and comments from individual members.....  :-\

I would would too....

For the people who just drive, they are fine. Said many times, got 37k out of mine. I would fit them again to the 2.2, not the 3.2 though.

i dont know about a ''tyre to avoid'' sticky but a guide to tyres would be good. someone very kindly posted the meanings of the writing on the tyre but i look in the gen car chat and see the threads about winter tyre choice etc. would be helpful to have the available types explained if anyone has the time?  :y :y :y :y :y
