Well, my 4 Potenzas are all due replacement now so I was just wondering what you lot reckon are the best tyres for the car as I know '5s can be a bit picky about rubber?

The Potenzas were brand new on when I bought my '5 a year ago and although I haven't had any trouble with them I was hoping there might be something better out there.

Thanks in advance,

WI

Thats exactly what I'm torn between too, the OC forum seems to lean towards the F1s (GSD3).

It looks like Black Circles will do the 4 for just under £200 fitted, has anyone spotted any better prices?

Thanks for the info, I might be based down south again in the near future so its good to know!

My Black Circles price was taken down to £192 after Googling for a discount code that gave me 5% off, okay it didn't save me fortunes but it's still 2 or 3 pints!

Had the F1s fitted on Saturday and although they're not fully run in yet, first impressions are fantastic. Loads of grip, progressive break away, and as a bonus they look good too.
