No idea on budget but clearly you don't want to spend for the big names , either of these will not disappoint without busting the wallet , fitting cack tyres to these cars is about the worse thing you can do to spoil the ride / drive
The Riken are Michelin owned / made & Nokian must be the most under the radar underrated tyres on the market

There cheaper than the ones I were referring too.

Winwin then , if your budget runs to the Nokians happy days, they should satisfy every need & if not the Rkens will be a good substitute for minimum spend

I know tyres are expensive but....
These are the only this keeping your car on the road. Doesnt matter how good your steering, suspension, driving, ESP, headlights or eyesight is. You have about one A4 paper-sized total area of rubber holding on for dear life around corners.

I would look on black circles, you can get 4 Goodyear Eagle F1 asymmetricals for around £360 delivered or Michelin Pilot Sport 4s for about £420 if they are running their BUY 4 and get £40 off deal still. They were last week.

If the purchase of the new car is crippling the bank at the mo, pay with Paypal Credit and pay the extra £100 off next month?

I quite like my rainsport 3's. I don't remember them being very expensive when I swapped my wheels out.

I have these too, very happy with them. Cost just under £400 for a staggered set. Some garages offer "payment assist". Which is what I did because why spend £400 when you can do £100 a month for free
