What tyeres do people like?
I need all 4 but im lost in the choices. people say one is ok for dry and this tyre is better for summer and the other tyre is better for tuesdays and im lost.
So anyone give me a run down of some good all round rubber that copes with normal UK conditions and doesnt cost the earth?

Thank you

hey man.. ive got bridgestone potenza's on mine, and they seem pretty damn good in every type of weather condition.. there a good shape aswell, they stick out about an half inch from the alloy, so if you kerb it you hit the tire and not the wheel

you can pick them up for £150 - £300 depending on where you go

Ive not driven potz on an evo but on a CTR they were rubbish in the wet. Great dry though.
My tyre of choice was PZero (nero maybe) Good all round tyre - doesnt excell in any area and doesnt badly fail in any area.

Our car came with bridgstone potenza,s on thay were fine in the dry but not too good in the wet. i find goodyear f1,s to be a fantastic all round tyre alot beter in the wet witch is good for me as i live in yorkshire.
