tyres
 
can any body recommend a good all year all round tyre. the ones that are on there at the mo are very poor and slip and slide all over the place and hold the road like sh!t. even at 10mph going round a mini roundabout as i found out yesterday..... yep they were very nearly brown!!!

:thankyou:

Avon ZZ3 seems to be a popular choice on the ZS.

I've got Toyo T1R's on the front of mine at and theyre good. When I come to replace them I might try the Avons though, see what all the fuss is about :) Also Im bored with the tyre tread on the T1Rs since Ive had them on my last car and now the Zed - weird thing to get bored of eh :)

:hmm: very strange ^^

I've had the Toyo T1R's on the ZS for the last 3 years, and I have had no problems, I have had Avons ZZ series before of other cars, and IMO I don't rate them at all.

I mean the tread pattern btw, just in case people were thinking I just got bored of the actual rubber :D :hmmm:

Anyway yeah the T1Rs have done me well so far too, although I get more wheelspin in the ZS than I did with them on my last car. The Zed does have more power and torque though. Good tyres Id say but I can only compare them to the standard ones.

My ZZ3's are performing well in the ice that we currently have.

I got mines from a local tyre fitter not much use to you i know but 65 quid a corner well worth the money.

my local is the same. i had them on a rover before but cannot remember what they were like. i think thats a very good price

i have the ZZ3's on my ZS and have been impressed with them so far.

the std conti's i rate highly too but they are expensive which is why i went for the avon's.
