Front tyre recommendations?
My 2 front tyres need renewing and was wondering what people recommend?
I don't want cheap ones or particularly expensive ones......

Same as Pete, Hankook Ventus V12,

Wear well and are quite on the road, with good grip.

I'd recommend the Hankook V12s as well, I think they're pretty much in the sweet spot for performance and price.
