Default Tyre options?

After a bit of advice from those in the know. I am running a MY06 STI with around 400+bhp.

I have two sets of wheels, one I intend to use in the wet and slippy the others keep for the dry (If that's such a thing in the Uk). What tyres woud you recommend for summer and winter

I am currently on Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3's which I rate quite highly

Cheers all

Hi,
I do the same thing and I use Toyo R888's in the 'summer' and I have continental sport contact 3's for this winter.
The R888's are awesome in the dry !

Same here, Toyo R888's for summer, they are awesome.

BUT they are very soft so don't last long (6000 miles on mine), and noisy too !

On Holme Moss last night I managed a bit of understeer, but that was flat in third trying to put 400 bhp down safely.

Trying Vredestein's for the winter...
