Just thought you'd all like to know that I had a set of Falken Euro All Season AS200 tyres fitted to my 1997 V90 in January 2015 and they are still good after 30,000 miles! I obtained them on line from a company called mytyes.co.uk and I see they are still around £60 each free delivery. Enjoy!

I've got a set of Falkens on my other beast Derek and very pleased i am with them as well!
Different ones to yours but they grip well, comfortable to ride on, good economy, quiet etc so no complaints from me.

Very good "middle of the road" tyres (no pun intended!) without spending a small fortune!

Thanks for the recommendation. I've got Michelin CrossClimates on mine which are amazing but not cheap.

I've got Cooper Discoverer All Seasons on mine and I'm very happy. £50ish online.

I ran CrossClimates on a Golf I had and yeah they're very good but pricey. The Cooper's are very similar on the road to the Michelin's.

My dad has Michelin crossclimate tyres on his Saab 9000 (the last proper saab) and it is amazing how quiet they are! Puts my 940 to shame with how quiet the ride is.
