Just to add my bit about Kumhos, i have them (KU39 205/45/17) fitted to Titans on my 850 T5 and worn out a few sets now. Surprised to hear the last couple of posters complaining that they blow out easy, as thats certainly not my experience of them. Its safe to say I'm pretty useless at avoiding potholes and have never damaged a tyre. I've also driven on the back roads of Bosnia where the road surface would be considered less than acceptable in many areas compared to western Europe and again no issues. I don't push cars to hard on the road but for normal to spirited driving they're more than up to the job. A criticism i do have is that they do start to make the car tramline quite badly once they get down to around 3-4mm, but i change then anyway so no real issue.
