When I got my 940 it had 3 different makes of tyres!

The non matching ones I replaced with a used Michelin Energy saver with 7.6mm of tread for £25 and another at 6.4mm of tread for £20 off Ebay. Different sellers and both the spare tyre. This was 6 years ago.

Both still in use with around 4-5mm of tread. The following year bought a new pair of Michelin energy for the front.
These are my Summer tyres. Only do around 2k a year.

Winter Goodyear Ultragrip 9's. Still on!

On my Toyota Auris replaced the 6 year old Continental 6's as front sidewall perished and around 3mm plus one worn on edge. Done around 28k Went for Goodyear efficientgrip performance 2's. A good tyre.

Like Michelin and Goodyear. James.
