just thought you guys would be interested.

evo has just done a big review on an assortment of tyres from the big manufactures.

michelin pilot sort 3
continental contisportcontact 3 - these are the standard rubber shoes for the rs twingo
kumho ecsta ku39 le sport
dunlop sp sport maxx gt
goodyear eagle f1 assymetric 2
bridgestone potenza s001
hankook ventus s1 evo
vredestein ultrac cento
pirelli p zero
accelera phi


as you can see a large selection. and as prob guessed you know which one won.
this is what they had to say:

the conti's was run very close by the hankook and goodyear but secured first place with a string of leading results. it nearly made a clean sweep of the crutial wet weather tests, setting the standard for the lateral g, braking and laptime, as was very strong in the dry too. a lack of sterring crispness at moderate speeds knocked it back on the road route but otherwise it was a superb subjective result. its wet handling was 'masterful: amazinly sure footed' and its dry ' smooth and feelsome, an inpressively complete performance'. outstanding.


hope this doesnt put too many people into a hedge as they try and prove they work well in wet weather :p
