I bought a set of cheap tires for my wife's car once. Never again. Really poor traction in nice weather (though it was fun for about 20 minutes when the tires would break loose when the little turbo spooled up). It wasn't much fun when you couldn't leave a traffic light without breaking the tires loose though.
When the first winter weather hit, those cheap, junk, tires were pretty useless. I bought a new set the next spring, the old cheap tires were about 1/2 wore out (all 4 tires, not just the drive wheels). Those tire probably only had around 8,000 miles.

Don't buy cheap tires on something you intend to drive. It doesn't take long to figure out why they were cheap.
