Need some new tyres for the pug, and can get these for £70 fitted each (compared to £79 off mytyres!) lol
They seem to be rated very well on all the tyre review sites.....just wondering if anyone had any views on them?
Cheers

Yeah, but its a 306 which is built for handling. no point having shite tyres on it! Oh and when u get 174lb/ft thru the front wheels in the wet, u need half decent tyres!! lol

If your so bothered about having grip, then why not just buy a decent tire that you know is good? As far as im concierned, you cant go wrong with a set of Eagle F1's  .

yeah but i do 20k a year. Most tyres that provide high levels of grip are soft compound and wear down quickly. ie: my bro has toyos on his GTi6. Fantastic grip, but he's eaten them in 5k. 
This is why i am asking if anyone has any experierence with the above tyres, with wear and grip in general.
