I know there's been a thread already about tyres but fancy my own.
Got a corsa d Sri and its needing two front tyres shortly , done 16k on the continental sport contact 3s , haven't got any complaints about the tyres that are on it. Priced some and their about 130 a tyre fitted , bit expensive IMO.

Anyone got any recommendations on which to fit? Something good in the dry and wet but isn't a silly price. Not putting budgets on or toyos as I've heard there quite soft and don't last very long. Tyre size is 215/45/17 , cheers.

I had Pirelli Pzero Nero tyres on my corsa d. same size as you are after, cost me under £100 a corner I think it was £360 for all four fitted. grip really well.

pretty good aye. Can be sore on fuel depending on how you drive it. Heres some pics , not done much to it, wind deflectors , mudflaps , vxr side repeaters, debadged the corsa and 1.4 badges shortened plated and white drls. If going for any go for the 1.7 diesel imo. Bought this brand new and lost a fortune lol.

Yeah I like the 5 door ones. Loads of facelift models for sale with Good spec and price for 1-2 year old models. Will most probably be an ex rental car but that doesn't bother me. Cheers for the info.
