Hi All
What are the best tyre to get for my 22" Rims, I am currently Running Toyo Proxie Sports 285/35R22 106Y.
Just looking if there are any better tyres available without having to sell a kidney !

TIA

Mitchelin is my preference on my car not cheap but you get what you pay for Well hear I am

For every tyre you’ll find one person proclaiming it the best ever, and another calling it a ditchfinder.
I’ve run premium and I’ve run mid range, and what I’ve learned over the years is that there’s a lot of nonsense spoken about tyres.
Most people will never test near the capabilities of their tyres so it’s rather like saying your car is limited to 155. Doesn’t make it any faster when we’re stuck in an average 50 zone. My Merc came on Bridgestones and when, 6 months in, I needed to replace them, money was tight so I chanced a set of mid range tyres figuring they’d wear out in 8k and it’d probably understeer but I’d have the cash to go back to Bridgestones soon so it’d tide me over. So I was shocked to find the grip and handling was almost identical, as was the lifespan. I had several mid range brands after that and all were fine. My last Jag I ran on Goodyear F1s. It was a sports saloon and I could afford the best so fine.

I was a little disappointed to find my expensive gleaming L494 sitting on “Triangle” tyres when I collected it from the dealer. The previous owner obviously knew it was going so put the cheapest rubber they could find on it. Funnily enough though, they ride really well, quiet, no loss of grip I’ve been able to detect and wearing well, despite being “crap”. The only outstanding question in mind is, last winter, I was on the M62. Wet, dark, the moron in the transit in front of me suddenly darted to the inside lane, leaving me doing 70, towards a line of stationary traffic. The Goodyears did their thing and I stopped just in time. If I’d been in this car, would I have been so lucky? So I’m in a similar quandary.
I don’t think there’s a right answer, except maybe whatever you buy should perhaps have a minimum B rating for wet grip? 2021 L494 D300MHEV Autobiography

On my 22" Overfinch Elara's after having them refurbished at Wheelmania in Evesham - they recommended Falken FK510 SUV, they are nice and quiet tyres and are good in wet and dry, not that I drive the car like I stole it mind you.

Falken reviews are up there with Michelin and Continental, but are classed as a mid range tyre, punching above its weight.

Shortly after I first bought my RRS, I put new tyres on all round. I liked the look of the tread pattern on some Uniroyals (supposedly very good in the wet)and so fitted them. I then have an issue with steering wander and spent a fair amount of time and money getting the car 4 wheel aligned (twice!) and then put it into my local indie a few times to try and sort the problem. All to no avail. when the time came to replace the Uniroyals I decided to go back to the factory fitted Pirellis. Problem solved! No more wandering. Very weird but I assume the RRS didn't like the tread pattern...

Oh, and has been said before on this forum, the bits of the car that can be the difference between life and death are those 4 little patches of rubber touching the road so skimping is a bad policy. Robin

I’ll always fit what came on my RRS when new which are Pirelli Scorpion Verde’s They last 35k miles and if you shop around you can get them for around £800 for 21” which I think is an utter bargain.

Of course, £800 is a lot of money but these car’s deserve to have the money spent on them and they’re lasting me five years so it’s a no brainer.

It's amazing the difference extra inch makes.
Pirelli Scorpion Verde all season - 275/40/22 - bargain 'deal of the day' price - £1,200 for a set
Just hoping my "Triangle" tyres don't suddenly become ditchfinders in the winter!
At less than half the price of the Pirelli's, I'm nervous but cautiously optimistic. Interestingly mine are TH201's which are C for wet grip (which concerns me) whereas they also have a TH202 (new version?) that's even cheaper and listed as A. Might be the bargain of the century! 2021 L494 D300MHEV Autobiography

The first place I looked, as I got mine from here when shopping around:


https://www.halfords.com/tyres/pirelli/pir...lacement=5


15% off a set of four so comes out at just under £1070. And they’ll let you pay interest free with PayPal so you don’t have to shell out all at once.

I usually look at blackcircles, have had success with tyreshopper (national tyres), Halford and when they have what you need, Costco are brilliant! 2021 L494 D300MHEV Autobiography

Actually, we’ve only just joined Costco and their prices seemed very good for tyres. Wife’s Evoque will need doing next, so I’ll be definitely having a look there.

I used Camskill Tyres a few when still in the U.K. I see they have the 22" Verde all season NCS tyre at £217.00 each the 21's slightly less, of course there is still the additional fitting and balance cost.

Cheers
