TYRE MINEFIELD

Hi all and festive greetings!!

I am in the process of replacing all 4 corners and wondered if anyone had any good reviews on an all season tyre? The size is 235/60/18 and up to now I am liking the Michelin Cross Climates but at nearly £600 it is harsh on the pocket, but rated B and B

Are you sure the size you need to 235/60/18?. The standard Sport tyre size is 235/50/18.
You'll not get a batter tyre than a Michelin. I'm going for latitude cross myself later next year.
A Pirelli Scorpion STR is the next best tyre if sticking to a all round use type tyre.

PNEU VREDESTEIN QUATRAC 5 235/60R18107 W

. I don't know if you can get them in the UK but these are rated here on the continent and are a little less expensive. They get a better rating than the Michelin crossover's

Thanks for that and do seem to compare quite well but decided to go for the Michelin on this occasion

I have Yokohama Geolander all terrains on my FL1 (thanks to the recommendation from Nodge) - and I've been really pleased with them come rain, sun or snow

I bought mine on line and got a local tyre fitter to put them on the car (I even replaced the spare)
