I've been in need of 2 new tyres for a while (the front ones) so i rotated them to the back but now i have a nail in one of the decent tyres so i figure i'll just replace them all. I cant decide which ones to go for.. every tyre place is telling me to get different ones and they are all around the same price. so any ideas?
Im looking at for my 17" 215/45: Pirelli P7 at $215 ea. Sumitomo ZII at $205 ea. Maxxis Maz1 at $210 ea. or for a bit more someone recommended the Sumitomo ZIII for $230 ea. |

I had Maxxis Mav1's on my lancer, so not sure how diff they are from the MAz1, but they were brilliant in the wet and dry.
I've just got Kumho KU31's (in an 18) on my Focus about 4 weeks ago and Im very happy with them also, but not sure what sizes they are available.

I put Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalins on my Zetec (205/50R17) 2 months ago. They were about $260 each from memory. Bonus was that I qualified for the Bridgestone free flights deal, so am taking a trip to Melbourne in March for nix. In any event, I was gonna buy them anyway as I'd read nothing but good things about them. The other tyre I was looking at was the Yokohama C.Drive for slightly more, ie. $280 a tyre.
