Reading comments like I lost control at 20mph or at 74mph on a motorway makes me wonder what kind of drivers are out there on our roads. If you can totally lose control of a car in those situations perhaps it's time to hand back your driving license?
As I previously stated when these wear out which seems like it's going to be ages as they show no signs of any wear yet, I will go for a premium brand to see the difference. I will report back in another couple of months now that the better weather is arriving.
