I love the Yoko's. Simply awesome in the dry (I hated the tyres you have now on anything but perfectly smooth dry tarmac). Not brilliant in the wet, but very predictable. As for road noise, well my cars noisy anyway what with the suspension and exhuast.

If it was my money I'd go with either Yoko Parada Spec 2's or Eage F1's. But have heard good things about the Dunlop Sport Max (All 215/35 R18 but the Yokos are very wide for a 215/35). Yokos can be quite cheap aswell (Although Mytyres always has them as very expensive compared to others)

Another GP owner on here from the NW (Wills_S) has got 205/40 R18 Michellin Pilot Sports 2. Will ask him to bob in here...
