Yea, 5th gear (I think) did a test quite a few years ago on budgets vs more expensive tyres. Emergency stops done using same model of car (with ABS), same speed, same conditions - just different tyres. The stopping distance for the budgets was significantly further!
See while i partly agree with most of whats being said, My budgets have wet grip of B. which is very good for the price and DBs are 69. for 4 times the price i can buy goodyear tyres. Wet grip B, dbs 69 the only thing i loose is a little fuel efficeny https://www.camskill.co.uk/m77b0s3916p13...se%3A_69dB
Also the ones im currently running day to day https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/X4-195-45R16-...2749.l2649
AFAIK the ratings are actually from the manufacturer as well.
