Tyres.. any good
Hi,
I have been offered the following tyres for very little money however not sure if they are worth the hassle or I should splash on some more well known dearer makes.

Been hammering the Avon ZZ3's today and quite impressed, overall grip is great and a lot more stable in the wet compared the Bridgestones but the Avon's being midrange tyres lack a hard sidewall like the Bridgestones so the tend to wallow under hard cornering even with the 40 profile (I went for 215/40/ZR17 spec).
The are much more noiser than the Bridgestones though however this might be because of the RA being so crap at keeping noise out.
