Watching with interest as all four on mine will about be ready for changing at the same time.
The Hankooks that are on now are very good but when I replaced just the rear ones, the price had gone up quite a bit to £230 supplied and fitted at a local dealer.
Yeah that's a lot mate. Getting the rears done next week hopefully so I'll let you know.

ZZ5's are epic for the money. I had Federals on my old R26 Megane, they ruined MPG. I binned them and put Eagle F1's on, they ruined handling, road noise AND MPG. I bought the Avons and the difference was night and day. Much cheapness to be had.:thumbsup:

Had Avons on the Z for several years, and very pleased with them, only changed (to Falkens) when I put the 19s on because Avon don't make the sizes I wanted. Will probably get a set of Avons for the coupe when I've finished repainting the wheels, and they'll be the ZZ5s.

Afraid I run on a mixture of tyres
at 67k put a pair of Contisport on the rear.
at 77k put a pair of Yokohama drive C on front as could not get Contis in size.
at 95k had to replace the rear Contis as they had worn badly on the insides,still had over 4mm tread otherwise. Would have preferred to go Yokos but they did not make the drive C any more .The car has always handled ok on the mixture so left them the same.
Car now done 95k and Yokos still have over 5mm left,never tramlined.
the X1 came with Bridgestone Turanza T001 not RunFlat. they are now half worn and very very noisy.will have to replace soon ,car done 14k

Had the Avon's fitted to the back, front being put on next month, they certainly look decent enough for a mid range tyre and they even have Z's all the way round the tyre walls!! :D
