What Tyres Should I go For?

[Lund]

Hello all,

Time has come for me to purchase a new set of tyres since the steel reinforced sidewall has decided to escape one of my tyres!

Its for my Audi A3 TDI - 225 45 R17.

I am doing more and more motorway commuting and also driving around locally. I have read several reviews, but cannot decide which tyre to go for. There is a slight difference in price, but people really seem to rate the 452s for grip however the 912's are also an option and wear less and are apparently an all weather tyre.

Camskill have some good offers on currently so I'm going to make use of that. What do you suggest?

Neither. I would pay 1-2£ more and get the Hankook Ventus V12 Evos from Camskill.

ZE912 is decent enough tyre for the money. Ran a set of 4 on my last car and wore extremely well. Would be my choice given the type of car you have.

4 Michelin PS3's from Costco tomorrow morning whilst their "20% off" offer is still on, all fitted, balanced within 45 minutes . . . . . . .otherwise you'll just be procrastinating for weeks (for a change!) and you'll end up having to run round on the space saver spare, or dig your mini out of storage.

In the time you spend messing about, you could earn more than the difference in the cost

I have had no issues what so ever with my 452's....
