definately agree, would never trust Proxes, although chavs seem to like them, mind you they also crash alot....
We have just fitted Falken ZE512 all round on our BMW 750iL and they are excellent, way better than Pirelli P6000 that came off, ride comfort is improved, excellent traction wet and dry too.
My GPS will need new fronts very shortly and I will definately fit Falkens to it, and they are excellent value too.
The best tyre ive ever had were Michelin Pilot Primacy on a Megane dCi, they lasted nearly 25k miles on the front, amazingly expensive though but worth it depending on your budget, I wouldnt touch Contis either, loads of money and IMHO opinion not worth it.
