Schumacher tyres = expensive [my personal moan!]

[Fiddybux]

Hi all racers,

I'm sure this is something that everyone can agree with...why are tyres, for example, Schumacher pins/spikes/whatever so damn expensive?

It's nuts. Okay you do the research into a good compound that works, then you make a mould, and from that you can produce millions of tyres.

It must cost them about £1 per pair of tyres (probably a lot less), and yet we pay £7.49 + everytime we need some new grip.

If you ask me, Schumacher have something here that is probably more profitable than the tabacco industry....except it doesn't kill you (only the soul inside of you!)

Please feel free to add to my moan here.

Grrr.
