Any recommendations for these? Car came with Pirelli P Zeros which are starting to get a bit low treadwise and I don't like much anyway as on the poor roads round here they are harsh and noisy, and I'm sure there are better alternatives.

Looking at the likes of KwikFit, seems to be a lot of choices, but no idea what would be a good alternative.

Michelin PS4, PS4S or PS5 depending upon what size and what the available offers are. Also check out Blackcircles and Asda Tyres. If you've got access to fitting services Camskill can be good.

Also worth considering whatever the latest incarnation of the Goodyear F1 and Continental Sport Contact.

My VW came from the factory with P Zeros and they were OK but replaced them with PS4S and the improve t was very noticeable, especially in the wet.

Great stuff, thank you.

Mine came with Primacy 4s, not seen any with PS4s.

Mine came with 19 inch Continental EcoContact 6 and they are possibly the worst tyres I've ever had on a car - understeering in the slightest of damp conditions, generally poor grip. Looking to get them replaced and they've not even done 2000 miles yet.

Michelin Cross climate 2 seem to come up quite often when doing research.
