Hi guys,
Lookin for your advice on what tyre make, model, compound etc to use on 1400 class 9 front wheel drive astra. Will be using 13 inch rims.

PS: I dont want to break the bank but also dont want ****** durex strength tryes (the breakable ones)

Michelin are good tyres.

If its hot go for N20's on the front and N01 or Ta00 on the back
If its cold or damp go for a N01 on the front and maybe a cut inter (ta00) on the back.

They are a bit expensive though
