Cinch and Tyres!

[silentbrown]

Looking at used Fabia's on the Cinch website, and almost every one I looked at had an eclectic collection of cheap ditchfinders fitted, even the fairly low mileage ones.

It's almost like they swap all the tires around at random between the cars, or are part-worn premium tyres worth more than brand new rubbish ones, so they actually take them off?

I'd have thought they only replace tyres which have less than the legal amount of tread. And they probably put the cheapest budget tyres on like all dealers do. Can't imagine they buy part worns. Its more likely the previous owners that have done that.

Nah, it's a reflection of owners running a cheap car on a budget IMO.

I just looked at one at random, and learned a new tyre brand: iLink . Mind you, that was only one tyre, the other three were Landsail's.

It's more fun when you see 22 and 23 inch tyres with names you've never heard of.

You can just imagine the conversations that go back and forth when they're being bought and fitted.

I link ar3 budgets compared to Landsails (which are a WST own brand - we sell tyres) just like RoadX ( formally Jinyu) are Bonds own brand

The are so many cheap brands out there with weird names.

I suspect this is symptom of the cinch cars being relatively new, meaning alot will be lease hand backs or end of PCP hand backs where the "owners" ran them on a shoe string expecting the monthly payment to be the only bill they ever get
