Hi guys
Need a set of new tyres on my Q5 - I do very low miles (c5k pa), so the existing Bridgestones have cracked badly before the tread has worn out.
Local garage is recommending Roadstones, which are way cheaper than many others
I don't want to sacrifice grip or performance by going cheap, but if I am going to be binning them after 5 years anyway, does it make sense to go with these Roadstones anyway?
Thanks in advance.

The garage told me that the cheaper tyres will mean fewer miles, which isn't a problem for me as I do so few. However my instinct tells me to aim more mid-range. Avons for example seem highly regarded...
