Default Re: Good value quality tyres - 205.55.16

I put goodyear assurance triple max on my wifes fiesta when the oem continentals wore out at 40 k. The goodyears have done about 22k. no sign of wear good grip little bit noisier than the contis which are a quiet tyre but also a wear out early tyre.And bear in my mind this is also all urban work lots of roundabouts braking and a bit of kerb hitting so yes looks like these goodyears are quality.

With the 205/55/16 Focus I had a 2008 LT diesel and I pit Bridgestone Turanxa Serenity Plus on. The diesel needs a grippy tyre as its too heavy over the front and doent handle as well as a petrol. I think I got 90 k out of those tyre but they got noisy from about 40 or 50k.
But they are a grippy tyre and I think Bridgestone have a 4 for 3 deal on. Someone else talked about Toyo Teo had these on my diesel earlier -they lacked grip and I didnt trust them in the wet however on a petrol they would be a different set of circumstances.
