I have a UK300 that will need some new boots on the front soon 
At the moment I have got the standard fit Pirelli P-Zero rossis on there.
Can anyone recommend an 18" tyre that I should be looking at on this model? I believe the P-zero is approx £150 per corner, so any info would be greatly appreciated.

Another UK300 posted the same question yesterday, I guess those origional P Zero's must be all wearing out now. 
Anyway as a UK300 owner here is my suggestion.
I did think of buying a set of Toyo's but lately peoples vote on hear go's to the Goodyear F1 GSD3. Another option could be Bridgestone Potenza S-03PP, this tyre replaced the Potenza S-02PP which seamed to be the previous No1 choice for scoobs.
You should be able to get the Goodyears cheeper than £150, probably £115-125 and will hopefully be a better tyre, especially in the wet.

SY, don't fit different tyres on the front - replace all four or you'll ruin the handling balance and can be dangerous
