No. I want my Transformers to retain quality in 10 years time. Apart from GPS, deteriorated rubber (cracked, split, sticky, flatspot, bare rims ) is an eyesore right up there with flaking chrome and severe yellowing.

I also adds another cost to production and I look to my MP cars and think what would I take off each of them (bonus items do not count) so rubber tyres fit into this pricepoint? Nothing really comes to mind.
