Hi all, Just been looking at tyres for my zed, although I don't need any yet I just thought I would ask the question which one's to go for. If anyone has any thoughts please let me know.
255x35x18 rears.
225x40x18 fronts.
Cheers.

Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2. Great test results and since fitting them I've been very impressed.

Re: tyres
winter wheels
Quiet is my No1 priority. The car seems to be okay on bends so ultimate grip is well down the list. I also run the F1s and I like them. I *think* the DSG3 might test a db or so lower so I will check the EU drive by sound results and buy the quietest available when replacement time comes.
this order
quiet first
wet close second
price and cornering, also ran.

Re: tyres
Typical responses you'll get on here are either Falken 452s or, for a bit more cash, Vredestein Ultrac Sessantas.
As above, the Eagle F1s are seen as the 'best' tyre.
I'm on the lookout for the cheapest I can get the Vredesteins for at the moment.
Take a look here for reviews on tyres for the Z4:
