Tyre recommendations

[Niall]

Apart from special circumstances (such as darren's car) there really is no need for a premium brand of tyre. I have 2 Savas, one Admiral Powermax and one Autogrip, all part worn and they have been perfect in all weather conditions. I drive hard in the dry as well, they have never let me down, not once. No wheel slip either on a dturbo running 26psi. A lot of what people talk about is just the placebo effect.

Rubbish. Tyres are one of the most important safety items that you can buy for your car seeing as its the only thing that keeps you stuck to the ground. Even on a 1.0l matiz, you should be looking at spending as much as you can afford on a tyre.
