actually I do put one of the cheapest tyres on my car! (had a scoob for 8 years and there the second BEST I've used (first being bridgestone)

just cos there cheap that doesn't mean they don't work!.....tis only a back box - not rocket science

I'm not into paying 50% over the odds for a pretty makers badge on the side!

Stay away from them, we put one on and it was complete ****e, you have to cut your original back box off then join the new exhaust to it using a piece of flexy pipe and clamps, never got it to seal. It was LOUD, very loud, not the nice burble either just LOUD.

Look for a second hand proper back box on fleabay, you really get what you pay for with these!!!
