Title: Tyres for my Scorpio
Post by v_patchett on May 1^st, 2004, 5:20pm

I'm in need of 4 new tyres for my Scorpio 2.3 Ultima Estate and wondered what you recomended?

I currently have Avon ZZ3's on all wheels, 225/50 ZR16 92W.

Tyres likea lot of things are personal choice but there was a big discussion on this subject some time ago with lots of different options .. I must say however that a lot of people onher seemed to like the Michelin Primacy for cost and noise aspect.. they seem to be good with grip in most conditions... but I am sure there will plenty of feed back onthis one.... as I said its a personal choice thing really... but I honestly think the quality tyres are the best option.. after all they are your footprint and the only point of contact with the road surface....

Yep, another one here with the Continentals. 225/50 ZR16 N1 to be exact. Apparently the N1 bit on the end means its a Porsche fitting. Not sure if thats right or not, but in any case I reckon they're great.
