Tires
Reviewing the threads on tires I know this topic is beat to death! But, I have to ask.....
Looking at two choices right now for tires:
Nokian NRZi (actually W rated, not Z as the name would suggest), and
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S
I am leaning towards the Nokian's, mainly because I have Hakkapelita's for the winter on the original D90 rims. (and they cost about 15% less than the Mich's)
Decided on 225/45-17 for the front instead of the 205/50 but will stick with the 255/40 for the rear.
Has anyone got experience with either of these tires, esp on a C4?
I've got Kumho 712's on my other car (Alfa 164S) and am pleased with the wet and dry traction but they seem to be wearing quite quickly (50% left at about 8,000 kms!)
Thanks
