The mini, with oem tyres, is a superb handling car, its why we all bought one. If the car was so bad with the factory tyres on why did you all buy it ? Did you sit there in the mini dealership after your test drive and say "this car would be soooo much better with different tyres on, I cant wait to spend my 17K so i can get down to ats and fit new tyres"

I suggest people are buying the non rf tyres because they are cheap, period.

I know someone who bought a Mini Cooper and sold it about a month later because she couldnt stand the hard ride.
She hadn't test driven one before she bought it, she just really wanted one and was told that they were amazing cars and that she would love it. So she just got one.
