New Tyres

[NikerGTI]

Turns out I've got a nice nail in one of my tyres, so on the look for a new pair for the Monza Shadows. Any recommendations?

Cheers!

ContiSportContact 5P's - excellent grip wet and dry.  Ran them in my GTI for 3 years and never missed a beat.

Flavour of the month atm is Michelin Pilot Supersports.  If my R did come on Bridgestones then I would be swapping them for these.  As luck would have it R's on 19" are now coming on CSC5P's so very happy with that, as they are a great tyre.

I recently, (a month ago ish?) got a pair of Pirelli Pzero rosso's in 18s for £174 odd through Blackcircles.com.

I hate buying tyres cos, I always feel like I have got nothing for my money,but I think I got a bit of a deal here.

Good luck!

you can't beat Michelin Pilot Sport III for wet grip and not too bad either on dry.  Wear-wise they could be better but small price to pay for keeping you safe... don't know how much they sell for in the UK but have been having them on my car since i bought it, best choice i made having had conti's as stock and pirellis on my previous car.

Thanks for the advice mate it was mainly between them and the contisportcontact5 that booth mentioned.

Ordered the continentals last night for £95 a corner fitted on Saturday

You won't be disappointed. 

CSC5P's Not the longest wearing tyre but the same can be said about most of the comparable top tyres.  I got approx 13k miles out of both sets of fronts, before they were down to 4mm.  But rather a great grippy tyre and shorter life, than mediocre tyre that lasts forever IMO.

My brothers friend was telling me about pilot sports...he has them both on his car and superbike...he told me the grip felt more than bridgestones he had on before
