Autogrip tyres - any good?
Discussion
Yes I know - 9 year thread resurrection - apologies but as budget places and even RAC are pushing these I figured it's worth a note.
Just bought a MINI Cooper with these on the front and something equally dubious on the rear.
In the wet they are spinning with moderate throttle and running wide on corners that really should not be a problem.
I'm getting a very slight clutch slip type symptom at times when changing up but I'm starting to think it is down to these tyres losing traction easily.
New premium tyres going on on Saturday morning and rain forecast so we'll see how it does after that.
But although I know most on here wouldn't put such ste on their cars - just don't. Truly horrible tyres.
