To the OP:
depends on your priorities, which in turn can depend of your driving style and your finances. What is the relative importance to you of (among other things) each of the following features
- handling (wet / dry?)
- braking (wet / dry?)
- price
- wear rate
- noise
- comfort
- fuel economy
In my case, I will shortly be buying a set of Dunlop Sport BluResponse 195/65 R15 81H tyres from MyTyres, on the strength of the reviews here:
Dunno if they will be any good (I'm hoping) and haven't bought Dunlop tyres for decades. However, as you might have noticed from the size, these are for a 4x4 diesel estate and will be summer tyres only, to temporarily replace an almost-new (and excellent) set of Continetal TS850 winter tyres. I'm not looking for crisp handling - I've got a sports car for when I want to enjoy spirited driving. My Octavia is my boring, sensible, everyday, all-weather load-carrying workhorse and I mainly want economy, silence, comfort and good wet braking.
HOWEVER your own priorities will almost certainly be very different, which was my main point. You need to have a clear idea of what do you want to achieve.
Final comment: if you are only buying two new tyres, fit them on the back.
Just taken Dunlop sport off my scirocco, fronts were done but backs had almost 6mm on and the droning from them was terrible, will never entertain Dunlops again .

Just put some on my scirocco, feels good very quiet

Will fit any Mk2 Octy. Really is a very effective mod.
Possibly unbeatable in terms of price vs. result I'd say
YEP agreed, definately the single best mod I did.

I know the bluetooth unit is in the Amundsen unit , looks like the unit you had fitted didn't have it

What a lovely clean looking example, making the leap shortly to Skoda from my 123d.
Something like this would be very tempting or the Fabia Vrs
Have you had figures from a RR?
Jealous of whoever buys this!
Not RR it mate no, never seen a thread where the power output wasn't questioned to be honest , this car pulls really well , even after driving quite a number of modded cars mine feels fast and a few owners have got out of it well impressed.

It would probably benefit someone who sits on their bum all day whilst they're at work.
Are you listening Andy?
Don't listen Andy.....
