Default What tyres ?

Hi all, im ready to put a new set of tyres on my 52 plate wrx bug and would like to know what you would recommend as a good all round tyre with good tread pattern and good looking side walls, also a tyre with a low noise rating.
Any suggestions will be looked into.
Also would a 54 plate STI blob/hawk bonnet scoop fit into a 52 bug bonnet.
Thanks in advance.

Another vote for the verdestein sessantas, great all round tyres and usually good price!!

But my favourite tyres if you want to spend a bit more then it has to be the Yokohama AD08R but your looking at around £600 for all 4 sides(225/40/18)

As above, Sessantas good and cheap at the moment. I have had a couple of sets of Sessantas - might try Goodyear F1 Assymetric 3 next.

ran a few sets of sessantas excellent tyre great price
F1's also good choice

currently running vredestein vortis , assymetrical design and a little pricier than sessantas but more than happy with performance so far

apparrently sessantas are being phased out , heard this from my local gargage and also a few threds on other forums about it ???
