OK probably been done to death but - I have recently bought a 16 plate Recaro Sport ND that I love. It has become my only car so will be driven through winter. It currently has Bridgestone Potenza tyres but they are fairly worn.
What tyres would you recommend for running through winter? There seems to be a lot of love for Uniroyal Rainsports for the earlier models or Michelin Pilot Sports - any other suggestions as it's at least 30 years sine I ran a rear wheel drive car through winter smile.

I too am due a change on the rears and am steering towards the Michelin Pilot Sport 4s or the Eagle F1s. I think the standard Potenza's are rubbish in the wet.

Yep confirmed for me this morning on the way to word, wet grip is st. Either of the above or possibly Continental Premium Contact 6 if I can get them at a good price.
