That’s good to hear, first impressions they seem to drive well but will see how they handle in the wet and over winter will keep you updated

I fitted the Avon zx7 in 19" and at first was very impressed. Sadly though that changed. They are very good in the wet but have extremely soft edges and side walls and within 4000 miles needed replacement. Now I have just replaced them with the new Cooper 4xs. These had good reviews and I was able to get them through F1 autocentre fitted for just shy of 250 the pair. First impressions very good and less initial roll on turn in as they have stronger side walls. Dry and wet grip are very impressive. Over the years I have ran Bridgestones and pirelli so have a good comparison to work with. Would recommend them.
