Pirelli P6000 185/55 R15 V £66.73

Bridgestone RE040 185/55 R15 V £69.72

Bridgestone RE040 185/55 R15 V £70.81

Yokohama A043 185/55 R15 V £83.54

Michelin Pilot Exalto £104.54

1st things 1st.. it is NOT advisable to mix different makes of tyres on the Roadster (unless you want to turn it into a ditch finder?).. so... if you only intend to get 2 front tyres.. Yokohama it should be, no question.

However, if you deceide to get all 4 tyres done, I would go for Toyo T1-r... out of your own choices above I would take the Bridgestones.

I've got P6000s all round and must admit they could do better.

Must be something to do with this cold weather we've had recently!
