Hi all, time has come to change all 4. Any recommendations from personal experience?
Probably looking at Pirelli, Michelin or Goodyear. More interested in wet weather performance as I live in Ireland.
I see GY have an F1 SS now, anyone know anything about that?
All advice much appreciated.

Isn't Michelin Pilot Sport 4S the one to have? Dual compound for unbeatable wet grip in corners.

I've heard good things about the new Goodyear and it does better than the MP4S is some tests but I think in the wet weather tests the Michelin comes out top. I had the MPSS on my RS6 and they were good but I have the MPS4S on my Alfa and they are really good.

I had a look at the Pirelli too & it won the EVO 2019 tyre test. Had very good wet performances.
Decisions decisions.
Thanks guys.

I've never had a Pirelli that was anything more than useless in the rain.

I’ve Pirellis on the TTS, there no lack of traction in any conditions.

Braking in the wet?

Not a problem, cold ceramics more likely to cause a brown trouser.

Also had bad experience with Pirelli years ago, never use them again

Had Michelin PS3 and currently running Goodyear Assy 3 on a daily, looking at Assy 5 also as they get a good review
