Ive had the Dunlops before and were great compared to pirreli's i had but the other two i have looked at reviews and its just doing my nut in now .......to much choice

I agree with Coste1l; Asymmetric 2's. I don't have any experience with either of the other tyres, but I do have four of the Good Years on now and they're faultless!

Another vote for the Goodyears from me, again not used any of the others but you won't be disappointed with the Goodyears.

When my rainsports 2 are worn, i'm probably gonna replace them with the goodyear asymetric 2. They get very good reviews.
Now that my uniroyals are starting to get low on thread, they are very noisy and tramline badly.
Still extremely good grip in the wet though, despite the lower thread.

The uniroyals have been around for quite some years now and its starting to show in tyre tests, they are starting to fall behind more and more. They also have very soft side walls which sometimes gives a wobbly steering feeling, especially at the back when changing lanes at motorway speeds. It annoyed me at first but i dont notice it anymore now.
Still a very solid tyre at a good price though!!

I hate the dunlops, there's a daft commercial they show 3 times during the f1 races on TV and i will NEVER buy them because of it

I read quite a lot of reviews on here and via google. The Goodyear Eagle Asymmetric 2 were top in a lot them and were highly recommended. I have a set of 4 going on this Friday.

£116.70 including fitting, balancing etc. I used quidco to get an extra 2.5% cashback, so total per tyre is £113.78 (225/45 R17 94Y). Blackcircles.com
