Yes I agree, nice to have good rubber what with the winter coming on and my impending thrash around the Nurburgring (only kidding about that one!)  ;D Have used Falken since I bought the car, so sticking with what I know. Seem to be a good all-rounder and a reasonable price. Also quite limited choice for the Brabus these days.

Not a huge choice is 225/35-17... pilot sports no longer made! Yokohama do one, Falken, Hankook and Kumho are the ones I found earlier for a roadie owner (same size rears) Paul has the Falkens on his brab, my winters are Falken too.

flakens offer fantastic summer grip but can be noisy!

i bought 4 x part worns (they were almost new) for just over the price of 1 ;)
