Well my wheels are away to get recoloured and when they return I will be changing them front to rear.
Although tyres at over £200 each do I really want to change 4 at once
Have to agree, had the rosso's, conti 2 & 3 and also Dunlop sp and the pilot 3's are ace.
Quieter than all the others, better wet trip and worked in the snow. You can define fly push on with confidence with these. I use my car for work so go through quiet quickly so it's easier to compare as they get eaten.

where you getting tyres from?
Michelin Pilot Sport 3 225/40/18: £134.40 delivered each from Blackcircles.com:
http://www.blackcircles.com/catalog...h=225&profile=40&rim=18&speed=W&tyre=21574968
just take them to a local tyre place and bung em £10 per corner to fit
Was going to say the same, my 18's I paid £124 each fitted and balanced, if you bargain you will probably get discount for 4!!

19" on the cupra r so prices jump considerably
Bloody hell, yeah, they do go up a notch!, just as expensive for Michelin Premacy's i assume.
considering that the tyres are the only thing keeping you on the road and its only usually a hand width in contact with the tarmac, you may as well pay the little extra. it may save your life IMHO of course.
but its personal choice, different people prefer different things
me, id rather buy quality than budget brands

I've got Rosso's on Cupra Mk2, 18" alloys - really bad road noise especially on motorways. Rear seems to be worse, even though they have loads of tread left and seem to be wearing evenly.....can't wait to try sumin new! Tempted to try the goodyear eagle f1 asy 2's - seems to be good reviews on them. Willlet you know soon...
Lol my 17s worked out about 90 per corner fitted and delivered
Goodyear assy 2s
I thought the rim protector was on the pirellis, they seem more prominent on the p zero rosso than on the assy 2s
On mine, both were a good tyre, not much in it for anything but not really pushed the goodyears on a proper summers day. Both have kept me on the road

I've got Pirelli p zero rosso's on. Never again, road noise is terrible and the wear is really bad too.
