Tyres.....

Post by chrisash32 »

Morning All,
I know you have probably had this talk in the past.
But i need some new tyres for my new alloys.....

Now being an odd size it seems like i don't have much choice!
I have two part used Pirelli ones for them at the moment that came with them.

Now the choice for my new ones are as follows:

1)
Continental SportContact 2 215/35 R17 83V XL with raised rim rib
£108.50 (ea) With mytyres.co.uk

2)
Pirelli P ZERO NERO 215/35 ZR17 83W XL
£106.20 (ea) With mytyres.co.uk

3)
Yokohama s.drive 215/35 R17 83W RF AS01
£103.30 (ea) With mytyres.co.uk

4)
Dunlop SP SPORT MAXX 215/35 R17 ZR XL with rim protection
£98.70 (ea) With mytyres.co.uk

5)
Hankook Ventus S1 evo 215/35 ZR17 83Y XL 4PR
£73.40 (ea) With mytyres.co.uk

Soooo, what do i go for? i am tempted to go for the Pirelli ones are they will also be on the back. The new ones will be fore the front.

Thanks

Chris

What sort of driving do you do? All those tyres are pretty well rated. Have you considered the new Goodyear Eagle F1s?

p.s. getting the same tyres front and back if you know they are good is probably the best bet

I would choose the P Zero Nero's. I just believe they are the best tyres out of that choice.
