It seems like only yesterday that the front tyres on my Signum were in rude health. This is no longer the case. They are now as bald as a badgers arse.
Vauxhall suggest I fit 'oddball sized' 215/50/17 and it is this size of rubber that is currently fitted to the car.
However, tyre choice in this size is extremely limited, and also expensive. On average a 215/50/17 tyre costs about £25 more than a 225/45/17 tyre. Most Signum owners therefore fit tyres of this size and save themselves £100 or more on a full set.
So which brand to choose?
I have used Kwik Fit fully fitted prices as a guide only. All tyres 225/45/17.
Pirelli P-Zero..........................£78.50
Goodyear F1 Eagle As 2.......£79.50
Pirelli Cinturato P7................£78.50
Dunlop Sport Maxx RT...........£78.00
Prices are very similar so which would you choose.?
