It's that time again, I need 2 new tyres for my vauxhall vectra c 1.8 ls. Currently have avon zv3's on the rear these are still ok, it's the falken ze912's on the front which need replacing. Not sure what to go for, avons are ok but nothing special the 912's alittle better. Size is 215/55/16 H 93 or 97. Are kumho ue31's any good can get these from camskill for £65.00 each, or can anyone suggest anything else. Looking at midrange prices to be honest no more than £85.00 per wheel really. Had zz3 avons once they were good, car came with bridgestone er30's originally but didn't like them, too pricey now.
 
Can only find evo s1 k107's in my size 215/55/16. v12's only 205/55/16. Are the k107's any good, camskill have them for £85.00
 
Next question, can you mix tyre ratings as avons on rear are 97H and the hankooks are 93V. I know you can mix speeds if higher and must be on rear axle for higher rating but what about loads as avons are reinforced.
 
Ok manual says 93H, so 97H on front axle and 93V on rear axle. These would also be the new tyres. Don't really want to buy 4, need some cash left for 7950 gpu.
