Thanks for the advice, think I will knock those on the head then
Always had good impressions with pirelli's on lesser cars.
Will look at the goodyear's

Eagle F1s are great tyres, I had them on my Impreza. They are a little soft though which is why I don't have them on my Omega as it does too many miles (and wears the edges too). Right up there with Bridgestone S-02 or S-03 which are also excellent. A lesser mentioned tyre which I've heard nothing but glowing reviews about are Toyo Proxes T1-R, my mate has these and they're great in the wet but I suspect they're also soft.

Between Eagle F1s and Pirellis I'd have the former every time, even if the Pirellis were half the price

I've just put 4 Pirelli P7's on my Omega and they tramline really badly - can be scary sometimes. I'm dissapointed really because I had some Hankooks on previously which actually performed really well but suffered from uneven tyre wear.

I was also amazed at the discount you can get if prepared to haggle. Both Smileys and Kwikfit wanted £145 per tyre but within minutes I had them down to £95 each fully fitted, balanced, new valves etc. How many punters are they ripping off at full price I wonder?

I have P7's on mine £80 fitted but only running on 16's and I bought 4 at once  I find they last for 20k and wear evenly and TBH corner very well.
