Got a nail in my front left tyre and the front right seems to have a slow puncture so a good opportunity to replace them both I feel. They're not illegal, far from it but come next summer and MOT time I'm sure they'll both need changing anyway. They're currently 'Prestivo Sport' which apparently is a Yokohama sub brand and they're OK ish I guess.
Tyres for this are much bigger than my old GTI6 at 225 45 17 which come in for over £100 a corner. Looking at the usual Conti Sport contact 3 and 5 but are Pirelli Pzero Rosso any good as camskill have them for £79 each instead of £120 or so for the usual Continental or Michelin. I've heard people say Michelin tyres seem to wear faster these days, is that true? I mainly do short journeys to work with a weekly 45 mile round trip. Most of it isn't pushing too hard but i do like the occasional hoon,
