Ah yes. My mistake!

I don't have the tyre knowledge to answer, so I'd do the usual and cheat!

I have 4 Michelin Primacy HP's fitted. They're dead quiet, have tons of grip and seem to be lasting really well. Done about 10K miles and I'm expecting at least another 15 out of them.

General is not the place for advice (however good)
