I wonder if someone could tell me if Nokian tyres are any good, it's just that I'm a bit tight on cash at the moment but don't really like the idea of putting a couple of Chinese ditch finders on the car.

I was looking online and a tyre company local to me had a couple of Nokian Hr tyres for a very cheap price of £46 each for a 205/60/15 wheel size.

Thanks for the info,
The car is having them fitted on Friday, I think the reason they were cheap is because they were the last two.
I couldn't work out why they were cheaper than the Chinese branded stuff but I guess it's because they can't do a full set.

Which is great for me as I only want two new tyres on the back.

I had them fitted today all in for £91 for the two, I'm very impressed as its being peeing down here so the bomb cratered roads are a bit slippery and the back end stayed sure footed.
But saying that I generally don't push the car much anyway as its a cabriolet so it's better for wafting along than driving flat out into the corners.
Plus running a 2.3 5 pot can get expensive if I put my foot down too much.
Thanks for the advice on the tyres.
