Before you start worrying, if youa re happy with them, then thats cool. I hated them from about 300 yards in. A tyre is a tyre theya re not dangerous, or nasty, just i felt them wooden, not as long lasting as expected, and just felt plain wierd.

Yeah sorry, just be careful when they go bald is all I'm saying. Not bad tyres for the price.

Yeah thats what I'm saying, I'dve expected a little more than 80 miles from them as I have ran through some Qualifiers before they took a lot longer.
