    They get good reviews but at the price they retail for I would expect that?
    I put new tyres on my Copen recently and after reading reviews and analysis of various makes I stuck with the Bridgestone Potenza's.

    update...just ordered two...Luccini Buono Sport
    165/50 R15 72V £58 for the pair delivered (£29 each)
    https://www.giga-tyres.co.uk/
    It seems that giga are same company as mytyres but prices are a little lower and delivery a little longer.
    Bridgstones there for £43 each if you want to pay for the name ?
    Compare the tyre label
    Note.. if you buy tyres online (unfitted) and have delivered to your door then the likes of ATS/Kwixkfit will not fit them for you..they will only fit tyres they supply..... your local may ,, may not ???... (some will price match depending on tyre brand)
    I get my tyres fitted at independant local fitter..£10 per tyre inc new valve and balance,
    So total cost for me will be £78 for 2 new tyres fitted and balanced, with new valves
    Had confirmation tyres despatched..order placed 1/4/15 delivery 8/4/15 (but normally here quicker then quoted..trackable)
