I'm after a couple of tyres for my sporting and not sure which to go for...

Looking on Blackcircles.com I'm looking at around £50 a corner fitted, but really don't know where to start..

165/65 R14 T (79) Short list...
Avon TZ5
Firestone multihawk
Uniroyal rain expert
Toyo 350
Kumho KH17

I'm not planing of doing any track days in my panda, but don't want ditchfinders.. On the other hand I don't want them to ware out after 8K miles...

thanks for looking...

Avon TZ5 would be my choice. I've not had that exact Avon tyre but have always been impressed with their rubber for summers

I am very satisfied with my Michelin Energy Savers. More than enough grip for a Panda and very long lasting, as well.

Reckon you'll get a good spread of recommendations, but mine would be the Uniroyal Rain Experts. We have those on our Eleganza and they are very good indeed. Comfortable ride and outstanding in the wet. Have been on since last June and there's negligable wear over the few thousand miles its done so far. And they were about £37/corner delivered from MyTyres.co.uk. £20 cash to fit and balance and you're away.

I have mostly stuck with OE continentals £50 & up tried Avons £ 40 or so very poor squeally poor grip & I have some Goodyear on one axle now seem decent generally other than Avons tyres good for 25K or so 165 65 14s.

I've ordered the Avons thanks guys... then read joe's comment

You'll be fine, each to their own, but from experience they're far from ditch finders
