Hi everyone.

I'll need to replace my front tyres soon, i currently have the standard 17" Pirelli Nero ones that came new with the car.

What tyres would you all recommend when i change them, or are the standard ones the best for the price? I don't want to spend any more than Pirelli's would cost, its january money is tight!!

Thanks, Ben

nope they are nasty i would go for avons or toyo etc etc and save ur self about 20 pound a tyre

If you can get the fitted locally try http://www.camskill.co.uk/ . They are really good on price and if you have a local garage shouldn't cost more than £10 a wheel to fit.

As for brand most are better than the standard p zero.

so something like this then?

i want something decent thats got a lot of grip, i replaced the standard pirelli's with yokohamas on my old 08 plate fiesta zetec climate and if the road was even slightly moist they were shocking, so i want to do the research this time!

Get avon ZZ3 they are great
Although I think they are stopping them?

I swapped for Toyo Proxes 4's all round £300 quid fitted. Fantastic value and a really good tyre in all conditions. Very supprised in all this snow how much better than the P zeros were last year. Also getting more life from them.

Ive used Etyres, and my favourite are www.event-tyres.co.uk and they fit it at your home/work for a lot cheaper than Kwikfit/Ford.

My favourite tyres are the Toyo Proxes T1-Rs which are incredible and a lot cheaper than the Pirellis, I do like the Yokos but they dont give as much grip in the wet as the toyos.

Yoko PARADA mate, simply the best.......

PARADA's are superb in the Dry and the Wet had them for 6 months now....

Definatley try e-tyres out, im on toyo proxies and you save a bundle with them-and they come to you!

the Avon ZZ3's are what i have and they are great even in this now

i think your save if you get Toyo T1R's, Yokohama Parada's or the Avon's, cant go far wrong

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wont Toyo bring out the R1R in 205? Wahhh.. Fittttt

Wow!! R1R's.....

Avon ZZ3s are the way for the future methinks. I'm going for a set on the Focus.

I'll avoid Pirelli's at all cost, they're quite simply awful

Thanks everyone, much appreciated
