So need to change tyres (rear ones atm) currently running michelin pilot super sports all round with 265 rears and 235 fronts on 19's.
I found the grip on the super sports is perfect in the summer.... however not that impressive in the rain and drizzle that is way too common in our lovely uk :-P

what are people running and what does everyone recommend to replace them with. Not too keen to go with the supersports again considering the price and not overly impressive performance in the wet weather.

Try Continental Sport Contact 5 mate. The Continentals are just as good in the dry but better in the wet. I've also found the Continentals are cheaper and wear slower.

The Pilot Super Sports were developed with maximum dry performance in mind at the expense of wet performance.

P.s. the tyres in those sizes will be called Sport Contact 5P.

I've just changed to Eagle F1 Asy 2's. Liked them on my S3 so figured I'd give them a go on the Beemer.

Will let you know how I get on once I've scrubbed them in!
