How's the road noise?
When I got my S8 it had Nankang tyres on it and I thought the bearings were going, they were so noisy. I swapped to Vredesteins which were great when new, but now they're getting a bit 'thin', the wet grip is not so good and the road noise at 'higher' speeds is awful: a recent 300 mile long motorway journey left me with a headache!
What I want is a good quality tyre, with good wet grip, a long life and low road noise. I'm begining to think that some of these are mutually exclusive.
Any candidates?
