Default C70 Tyres

Hi
I am new to the forum having just purchased a 2008 C70 and am looking at renewing two tyres, any suggestions as to the best type to go for - existing tyres are Pirelli P7, no problem but rather expensive as any tyre I have tends to crack rather than wear out as I only do roughly 4k a year. Do not want a cheap and nasty budget but something in the middle - any ideas.

Cheers

Thumbs up C70 Tyres

I recently replaced all 4 on my C70 cabrio. I got Goodyear Eagle F1's,
225-45-17 mounted and balanced, for £103 each. They are quiet, give a good ride and are made in Germany, so I know I am on good rubber.
I am on the Isle of Wight and the roads are terrible.
