Help please. Currently running Pirelli P7s but finding them very hard with high noise. Looking to change to something that will still cope with the handling but increase comfort and decrease road noise. Any one have any advice?

Also considering winter tyres. Suggestions welcome taking above in to consideration too.

Thanks.

Running Neuton NT5000s on mine. So far so good.

I've been running Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta on the STi, they seem fine. Also used their Wintrac Xtreme last winter and just had them put back on, the performance last winter was superb in some pretty terrible conditions.

Eagle F1s on mine 235/40/18 ... feel good in all weathers. Previously had ContiSport-3 .. much the same as the F1s, just fancied trying something else

Thanks all. Also had recommended: all year tyres (best for comfort) Bridgestone ER300 and for Winter tyres Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D. Guess I will check out some prices now. Anyone happen to know if winter tyres result in a harder feel due to their make up?
