Hi, I'm looking at buying better tyres, having only owned a coupe for a week, but the 'arrowspeed n1000' tyres that it came with need to go. laugh Anyone used the potenza adrenalin's (205/50 R16 W) with a coupe before?

I'm aware that winter is coming so I'm hesitant to splash out on them without some advice first. It's my daily driver and I'd be doing a fair amount of motorway miles - but I can't seem to find many decent all-rounders?

I will be putting on the RE003 soon. I had the RE002 on my previous car. It was awesome for road use wet or dry. It does not snow here in Singapore, therefore, I cannot comment about performance in snow.

I've just put Conti's (Contact Sport 2) on the front - they are superb thumb

I've got RE003's on my Ford ST, never had them on my coupe. I had switch from NITTO Invo's and I found the bridgestone to be pretty soft and wear fast, The focus is heavy front end like the coupe and enough power so it does tend to eat front tyres and they are pretty soft compund (treadwear)

As to performance, solid I would say, good grip in dry no doubt, wet I have found to be OK. ESP cuts in a bit but it always has

No idea on snow performance

They are pretty cheap here compared to Conti's and the like but they will wear out fast I suspect. conti 280 treadwear, Invo 260, RE003 is 220 from memeory - but value for money is good here at least. Buying new tyres often is a bit of a hassle - if your doing high miles expect it
