Default Which tyres???

About due for a new set of tyres on my MY98 UK wagon.

I want good all round grip and I'd prefer very good wet weather performance.

I was fancying RE070's, but don't think they really fit the bill (wet weather), or are available in 215/40/17.

Think I've narrowed it down to Toyo T1R's, Avon ZZ3's or Dunlop 9000's.

Currently have Toyo T1S's fitted and they seem pretty good, but do slide about a bit in the wet.

Open to your reviews/opinions, etc.

Cheers,

Marty

These are 225/45/17 and are not bad in the wet its just greasy surfaces that scare you but they do tramline abit if you get stuck in those ruts that trucks make on the road and you feel the white line every time you go over one.


Your choices are pretty good though, the T1R's seem to be even better than the T1S, but id also add the Goodyear GSD3 tyre to your shopping list.
