leafsprung Posted September 14 Share Posted September 14 The school run is great place to find some miserable rubber. This morning's stand out spot was an 'ilink Thunder' from all the lads at the Shandong Longyue Rubber Group. https://www.protyre.co.uk/tyres/car-tyres/ilink/thunder-u09 This was on a Nissan Crapcow amongst a roulette of other utterly shocking value 'rubber' mounted on Nismo branded alloys. The best was the front offside with a sidewall bulge the size of a baby's head. Assuming, as you would, that no one would be that stupid enough to knowingly drive on something so obviously dangerous I did my civic duty and told the owner about it as they were getting their grandchildren out who they'd just ferried to school. "Oh yeah, that. My husband did it yesterday. Its alright, its booked in tomorrow". FFS I assume that because massive alloys on 7 seater brat carrier equals a can of puncture repair snot instead of a spare wheel, people in such a situation just keep driving because they see no alternative. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put a pair of those on the front of a rental van last week. With the regard customers give for kerbs and things it's always a pair of budgets. In fairness I don't think any of the many dents have been caused by crap tyres, just crap drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
