The original ditch finder, the P6000, was just that.
A godawful, abomination of a tyre. Noisy, hated water more than most cats and generally lacked any grip in anything other than than bone dry.
However, I'm not a brand snob. I've found through time that a tyre from one manufacturer can be amazing in one size and toilet in another. A case in point are the Bridgestone Potenza S001's on my Golf GTD. Hateful things. Incredibly noisy, zero grip, a complete waste of time,and it's not just me that thinks it. Half the GTD Facebook page at least hate them.
All down to driving style and journey though. Id agree to a point that the ditch finder might be suitable for the daily commute but I'd rather something underneath me I knew would react well in the case of sudden hard braking, evasive manoeuvres or a summer storm downpour.
