(UK, automotive, slang) A poor-quality tyre for a car, usually one made and sold cheaply.
My MX-5 was *ace* in the snow in February round here. I went where other cars couldn't go with no problem at all. It was on Avons, and felt a whole hell of a lot safer then the FWD Puma on Pirelli ditchfinders did.
