    It’s similar to expensive watches. I have two automatics that profess to being accurate and not losing seconds over the course of time compared to A cheap quartz

    Both tell the time and accurately. Who really notices if their watch loses a second over the period of time?

    Yet it’s used a selling point to make people believe they’ve a superior product. In reality both tell the time with virtually no difference

    Exact same with tyres

    Exact same

    You have gone full retard. Expensive watches are jewellery items whose value is attributed based on design, quality of materials (gold!) and workmanship.



    Mod note - mind the language please

    Shockingly awful use of the word retard.

    Quite upsetting tbh , insults from a mod and now using the word retard...


    Yes, I’m aware of that. I have 2 myself. The watch brand would have you believe that their price is due to their high accuracy and keeping time not losing seconds due to their mechanisms

    They use this to demonstrate that they are superior to cheap quartz watches

    You seem to be saying that counterfeit big brand tyres are the same thing as non big brand tyres?

    Second hand tyres are second hand rubber.
    You might as well use a second hand condom.

    Chances are, it'll be fine.. but if it goes wrong.. you'll end up in an emergency ward.

    Nice attitude, being labeled a retard is ok as long as you grow up?

    Some would argue , it is in fact yourself that needs to grow up if you need yo resort to using that type of word
