The stock Goodyears on the 16's on an LR Focus Zetec are rubbish. Good only in the wet and they're fairly quiet and comfortable, but they really aren't any good at grippy stuff in the dry. Honest but for the money, rubbish. I paid $20-30 per tyre more at replacement time and got some Michelin Pilot Preceda tyres which crap all over the stockers in the dry and are comparable in the wet. Have also heard great things about the Goodyears.
