Rainsport 3s and Goodyear eagle F1 2s are considered pretty good.

You fail to mention a budget?

 

As above I've heard nothing but good things about the Rainsport 3s and Goodyear Eagles. But there is plenty of choice out there.

 

The Yokos are good on track and in warm weather... not sure I'd run them on a daily road car especially in winter, just asking for trouble lol. Plus you won't get much life out of them as the compound is very soft.

Tyreleader has some excellent prices

Just picked up 2x KUMHO KU39 brilliant mid range Tyre :)

I've got Michelin Pilot Sport's all around.

A bit expensive but definitely worth it.

I was debating Rainsport 3's or Hankooks.  Getting Hankooks fitted today for £64 each.  Will report my findings.

Contact 5's 

Getting two rainsports 2's fitted to the front today

They were £5 dearer than the 3's!!

But didn't have the 3's in stock

Goodyear Eagles or Michelin Pilot Sport 3's

Ive got khumo on the back and the guy that fitted them said if I put them on the front they wont last long because they arnt strong enough for the power I have :/

I've just fitted four Rainsport 3s and can't say a bad thing about them.

Another +1 for RS3's

I've got Michelin Pilot Sport 3's on the front and they are immense in the dry but they really come into their own in the wet, I've never had another "performance" tyre as good as them in damp / wet conditions, although they're £115-£120 a corner. 

After suffering 2 recent punctures with Uniroyal Rainsport 2s I'd avoid like the plague. Side wall is very soft and rips easily.

Hit a pothole and it just tore the sidewall, and that happened twice in the space of a couple months. Gone back to Bridgestone now.

Camskill are very competitive price wise, most local tyre fitters will fit them for in the region of £10-£15 a corner.

Tyreleader seemed to be a bit cheaper for me but obviously depends on what tyres you are getting!

Is 180£ good for 4 NS2 nankangs? Xxx

Fitted balenced and the other tyres disposed of? If so yes. 

 

They're an OK tyre, personally i'd put a few quid to it and get Federal 595SS instead. 

 

Still budget, OK tyres, not much wrong with them and a good kerbing-band on them to protect your rims :) 

I get fitting free anyways as my uncle owns the local garage near me, so I can dispose of old tyres myself, at a farm were a guy uses them as weights to keep plastic sheet on his feed for the cows:) so all good!

Cant be bad for free, I've ran them on the Fabia before. THey're ok but I found they harden and do make the handling deteriorate over time, pushing the nose and letting the back break traction easily, in a non-good way! 

Rainsport 3 go for the 87w XL size as the have a stronger side wall. My previous tyres on the front looked squashed even with the correct preassures. The rainsports dont and in the wet are jaw dropping cant fault them.

Kumho ku39 for me, excellent mid range Tyre, on par with premium brands and very reasonably priced :)

Tyreleader worked out cheapest for me

Just ordered another 2 yokohama ado8s for the front today :)
