I like the Pirelli Scorpion tyres, mainly because I'm 99.9% on tarmac, wouldn't rate them in snow or even grass

The guy I bought my last set of brand new Pirelli's from charged me £105 each, but he off roads and preferred the Michellin.

I also bought wheels and tyres from this guy, but his in Birmingham.

I've also bought a used very cheap with loads of tread Continetal from RB Rubber in Corby. I asked for a quote for Pirelli's and he gave me a very good price fitted.

So it's horses for courses, I didn't go with the Continetals because of the well documented feathering on the edges.

Pirelli's for me all day long, they've lasted well over 12,000 miles and still have 4-5mm left.

I am running Hankook ST's on mine. I used to have Toyo's on there (previous owner put them on) but they look to have worn quite quick.

There is not much road noise off them and they grip well, they also have the snow symbol on the tyre but could be ice so I'm hoping if we do have some snow they will be ok in that too.

They cost me £105 each for 20" ones.

£105 a tyre? Where from if you dont mind my asking?

Im running Hankook Ventus after a lot of research these seem to be best value for money and an all season tyre

I've heard good things about Hankooks, but being old school I prefer to stay with Pirelli because they've always been good tyres for me whatever car I've driven. (Probably paying a premium for the name, but I managed to pick up 4 for £155 each, not the £105 I said earlier - List Price is about £300 a piece)

I'd try www.blackcircles.com , never used them but their prices seem ok, and they can arrange to have them sent to a local tyre company and have them fitted.

Hankook Ventus ST RH06 - 275/40 R20 W (106) - £168.13 fitted locally
Pirelli Scorpion Zero Asimmetrico - 275/40 R20 Y (106) - £300.77 fitted locally

Try these £205 fully fitted & you can pick your fitting station,,,,they are one of my main suppliers & they have just started this up.

My brother-in -law runs these on his 2.7TDV6 Had them for about 2 years now done plenty of miles and still looking good they are certainly wearing very well and evenly. He had no problems in the snow last year!

I need a set of winter tyres for my 20" wheels (I intend to take my 22" off for the winter!) I was thinking of getting the Hankooks I was so impressed with the tread, miles and the way they are wearing!
