Chavs can still buy cheap tyres.

That's kinda what I was getting at, but how will they feel now that they're part of a system? ;)

I wonder how many people will take notice. The majority of people seem to either go for the cheapest, or the cheapest known-brand.

Meanwhile I'll go for the best for the car based on forum reviews. Previously used to have Michelin PS2 and now have gone for Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric v2.

Which in my tyre size, I have the option of either Kumho at about £120 a corner, or Nexen, at about £65 a corner.
I'm running Nexens.

Got nexens on the jeep, they do not look good for off road, but boy were they cheap!

Yep, got Nexen's on mine too. Cheap, but not too cheap. Middle of the road etc...
