You get what you pay for. What's your budget per tyre and why are you only limiting yourself to those 3?

I saw them, how are they in the wet and cold mornings (im seeing 1 degree temps NOW ) this is what worried me

[Cton]

They are fine, if don't drive like an idiot in the wet you won't have a problem.

Brother just bought Nitto Invo.
Look a quite nice tyre, but he blew the motor up on his car a couple of days before they arrived, so only performance report I can give is that they handle well being pushed around the lounge room

Don't forget Sumitomo HTR Z III

I had these for 30k. Probably only legal to 25k. Only paid about $240 fitted back in 2010. Good tyre. But got a little slippery when they got old.

I will add that the Nitto Nt-05 is a little noisier than the stock Dunlop was.
Its not bad at all though. And for the price and grip level its a small sacrifice.

Are sumitomos back in stock? I tried to get another set a few months back and the local dealer said everyone was struggling to get them since the earthquake in Japan.

you can also consider the Khumo KU36 or the kU39. The gripp on the KU39 is suppost to be close to that of the KU36 and also has a more kms out of it.
I hav not used either but i know someone who uses the KU39 on a Golf gti and the feedback has been quite good.

*Pirelli PZero, not the nero's or rosso's they are models under the vanilla PZero.
Ordered by dry grip, max performance summer;

The top is extreme performance summer, so these are just under.

Kind of surprised no one has mentioned the Pilot Sport 3. That's the way I'm heading

Got eagle f1 Assymetric 2 as in the motor test... Seem great... Smash my old re050as

[Caffeine Fiend]

Would not recommend the sport max tt for the MPS Luke. The Kevlar reinforced sidewall would be brutal when combined with a firm suspension.

I had these on my mk4 golf GTI and they were great because the golf suspension was soft and wallowy. On anything decent though I reckon they'd be too much for a daily driver

Or the Nitto Invo, I got them, done 6000km and love them and sit in your budget. Had the fk452 and they were incredibly noisy, and they were only average on grip.
