What drivers say about their 235/35 R17 tyres
The most recent owner reviews fitted in this size, in their own words.
I have always stuck to Pirelli tyres (P zero) in the past. I needed some tyres quickly and could only get Avon. Well frankly I think that I would now ask for Avon. Good in both the wet and the dry with good grip on cornering. Country roads are coped with easily and so are motorways. Great performance all round
