Vauxhall Insignia CDTI 160 Tyre Review Highlights

Writing about the Avon ZZ3 given 87% (245-45-18-V)
Driving on a combination of roads for 10 average miles
On the ECOflex estate, my Bridgestone OE tyres lasted 33,000 km, but suffered from road noise. I decided to buy Avon ZZ3 tyres on the basis that they are British and mid price range. I've done 16,000 km on them (they are less than 1/2 worn, so expect the same mileage) and must say I'm very happy with them, the road noise being much reduced, and to my (limited)knowledge, no different in performance to the Bridgestone.

Writing about the Falken FK452 given 87% (245-45-18-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 average miles
Bought a full set of Falken FK452s to replace Continental Contact3s on my Insignia. The Contis were not only expensive but were quite noisey in my opinion. Out of the Falken FK452 and ZE912 I opted for the FK452, due to the fact that my Insignia SRi sits quite low and the sportier look of the FK452 appeared to be the better choice for a sportier drive. I was not wrong and delighted to have chosen not only the Falken brand but also the 452s. I travel the country covering 20,000 miles plus a year and have now covered approx 9000 miles on the Falkens.
They have performed well in all weather conditions and show little signs of wear (although my driving style is probably quite conservative).
I bought these Tyres from Camskills who delivered within 48 hours. Will definatley buy again.

Writing about the Michelin Primacy HP given 64% (225-55-17-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 15500 average miles
Care done 15500 miles and front tyres now shot but rear ones still good for a while - hard wearing in my opinion but road feedback doesn't feel great. Great grip in the dry round country lanes but you certainly slow down in the wet and rubbish in snow & ice. Very expensive tyres too.

Writing about the Avon ZZ3 given 64% (245-45-18-W)
Driving on mostly motorways for 20000 average miles
I replaced Bridgestones with these tyres, and was very happy with the result, they were quieter than the Bridgestones too. As time and the miles passed, they became noisy, and now with 20,000 miles on them (they last very well) they are suffering from 'cupping' (google it) which makes them VERY noisy and unbalanced. It may just be a combination of car and driving style (75% of time at speed limit on motorway on cruise control) that has caused this.

Writing about the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric given 61% (245-40-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 15000 average miles
I have always liked Goodyear Eagles having had them on a number of previous cars but I have to say that these have been quite bad on road noise and have not lasted anywhere near as long as I expected. I have now fitted Michelin Pilot 3's and there is a drastic reduction in road noise and feedback appears tgo be improved.

Had these tyres as OE on my Vauxhall Insignia, good comfort and road holding, but cant believe that they have only lasted for about 15K miles as i drive carefully to watch my MPG . very poor wear !!!
