Best Tyres for the Toyota Avensis verso

Beware of these tyres!! Initially i was very impressed with these tyres. Very comfortable, quiet (except on concrete surfaces), excellent dry and wet grip and safe on aquaplanning. I have never driven on a tyre that has such a good mix between comfort (soft sidewalls) and driving dynamics. The sidewalls don't fold over when cornering which gives the tyre a great feedback, much much better then Michelin Primacy 4. The wear rate is excellent too, they have lost 1mm after 15.000kms. HOWEVER, the car started to vibrate at 110km/h+ only a couple weeks after installation. I had re-balanced the wheels but the vibrations remained. After i put on my 2nd set, winter wheels, i decided to re-balance these Continentals again, and to my surprise 3 out of 4 had gone completely out of shape! They are no longer round! One wheel needed 35 grams on the first balancing, now it needs over 90 grams and the tyre is egg-shaped, and so are two others! Continental have zero interest in helping me out because i already drove too much on them (i do 30.000km's a year). I work at a garage so i know what i'm talking about, the car has no issues when driving on different tyres on the same set of wheels. Very, very dissapointed because this tyre gave me everything i wanted. My confidence in Continental has gone out the window completely and i now switched to Fulda EcoControl HP after previous good experiences with this brand.

Note: After a chat with the local tyre fitters, it appears that i'm not the only one with this issue. Also happens to AllSeasonContant apparently.

TLDR: Great performance in all aspects, but go completely out of shape very quickly thus causing incurable vibrations in the car. AVOID.

I have run these on a Toyota Avensis Verso however fronts would only give 10000 rears 30000 and are a good all round medium rated tyre would buy again

These tyres are great when new very quiet, quieter than Michelins MVV4s on my other car, problem is i did not align the tyres when i got them so the GR90 did not last too long, quite a bit louder when worn, more suited to lighter cars which are driven leisurely.

The PS3 is responsive & fairly quiet. Wet grip superb, as is dry. They are also reasonably comfortable for a low profile. But rapid wear is a negative. Previous Kumho KU31 about 40,000km but these will be worn in less than 25,000km.
