If you're not worried about it now, it might be something to be worried about. Unless you're worried about worrying about it in the first place ? Then i wouldn't be worried.

Dont be. Probably not worth the worry anyway.

Having said that maybe you should, I just dont know & frankly that worries me.

I don't know that everyone's worried about.

Should I be worried about that?

I have a Mazda 3 "sport" with firestones on. They are ste. Shall I put some devanti's on just to see? An independent test if you like. It's a cheap car so I'm not overly worried if it ends up in a ditch! All sponsorship great fully recieved!

After reading 28 pages from keyboard warriors bhing at each other I knew I would be in for a rough ride. Oh and I'm not 'plugging these tyres 'yet' as I haven't ran them 'long term'

All I know 'so far' is they are a lot better than the ZZ5s I had on previously, but I am worried how quickly a tyre with a 420 thread wear rating will wear.

Lastly I doubt I'll be back as you have made it very clear that anyone with a personal opinion - that goes against the 'clique' - is not welcome here.

Is flouncing on your second post a record for these parts or had it been done before?

Bacon - think your being a bit sensitive but you can understand the suspicion when your first and only post bumps a very old thread plugging a brand.

Worrisome indeed

Tyre expertise without having any experience of the rubber in question is a PH forte you'll find.

My current car is a remapped Astra 1.9 16v CDTI Sporthatch, and although I don't drive like a lunatic anymore, it still is very prone to very bad under-steering. So when the terrible Avon ZZ5s needed changing I decided to go for some cheapies and the tyre shop recommended Davani 640s (235/35/19)
You have a car that is prone to terrible understeer, so you decided the best course of action is to fit a set of "cheapies" to it. It seems so obvious in retrospect, I can't think why no one has ever suggested this before.
