   Hi people I've seen 2 different tyres I like but dont know which one to get. I'm really after a tyre which dosnt wear 2 quickly. The ones I'm looking at are the Dunlop FastResponce Sp and the Goodyear Duragrip. Not sure which one to pick as there both the same price. Any advise?

   i went through a pair of those g'years on the front in around 9k. The mitch energy tyres last forever though in my experience. But the g'years seemed to handle the snow better. Pro's and cons!

   Mate it depends if you want a sporty tire or a normal one ,the best value/wear tyre i had were pirelli p6000 ,they are not performace tyres but my god they had over 4mm thread after 5 years ,and i would drive them still if the bad camber didn't mess outside line of them .

   Dear Raul0,
   I bought 4 x brand new Avon zv3,s for my SAAB, and my Daughters Saxo has Avon zv 5,s fitted, very nice tyres and very keenly priced too
