I used Kumho Ecsta's on my Saxo which cost me around £47 a corner all in. I thought these were okay. I bought some Bridgestone Potenza RE720's from the internet, they cost £45 each delivered, then £10 fitting charge, and these tyres were so, so much better! Worth buying online if you can find a garage to fit the tyres. Also check the online sellers for independent reviews, a company like mytyres.com is great.
