"horses for courses"

The first question is, how do you drive your car, that will determine the tire choice. If you drive to work on a straight road with a speed limit of 120 kph and you drive at 80kph, virtually anything will do. If live in twisty road area and have pedal for the metal syndrome, then buy the best.

I'm sure there are many cars out there that have +5 year old tires. Classic cars that are driven twice a year will be one of those.

When is the last time you lost control of your car ? Never ? Then these will probably do.

Next option is buy the cheapest tire from a reputable tire outlet. They wont want to loose their reputation selling junk and there are some very good Chinese tires out there at a fraction of the cost. Recently bought some and just done a 3000 KM round trip with a track day included and found they worked perfectly.
