When i bought my TD5 it had Cooper Zeon XSTs (not the XST-A) on the front and Fullrun HS299 on the rear and both seemed fine (255/55/18). I changed to General Grabber UHP all round. Coopers were quieter (although the grabbers are still pretty quiet on most surfaces) the grabbers seem a bit grippier in some situations on the road. Only done v light off road - grass/stony tracks etc.
