  • Best Tyres for DS3

    What is a good quality tyre for the ds3 at a reasonable price.

    What is a reasonable price for you billyc ?

    I was so impressed with the Michelin Pilot Sport Exalto tyres mine came with that I have kept them on the car when it was time to buy new ones, great grip in all conditions and v quiet. With shopping around they can be bought for £80 a corner which is reasonable for me.

    Others would pay more or less for their tyres

      The Michelin Pilot Super Sports get great reviews, in fact whilst looking ove yet to come across a negative Michelin review.

          I've got Pirelli P-Zero Nero's on mine - I've had no issues tbh.

                Err....a round one?

                Word of advise, never, never, never, never, never scrimp on tyres. Regardless of how good your brakes, ABS, traction control and handling are they are all totally reliant on the quality of the rubber. Remember that you can fit the contact patch of a normal car onto a size of A4! So always go the best you can afford.

                  I'm sure THP is referring to the factory fitted 050's since you didn't specify one of the other tires in the potenza line

                    I've been reading lots of good reports on Michelin primacy 3's.

                      I did just assume. The ones that come with the DS3 are absolutely awful.

                            What exactly is wrong with the 050s? I'm curious because my DS3 handles poorly with those tyres. Although it still could be something with the ET of the wheels also...
