What's a good price and brand for 215/65R17 set of tyres? Largely city driving with an annual roadtrip.

TIA

      Just throw a set of Michelin primacy SUVs @ it.You won’t regret it.This tyre consistently tops the tyre tests.

      If something is being sold in Australia under ACCC it is already good, and is BRAND NEW.

      Not some second hand garbage.

    Greenlander is cheapest I think

    I put Grenlander COLO H02 on the kid's Honda Accord Euro. They were a lot better than expected. Truckloads better in every respect (noise, wet and dry performance) than the Toyos they replaced. I'd fit them again. Also a lot better in the wet than the Dunlop SportMaxx I had on the Octavia.

    If you haven't lived with them, then it's probably best not to comment.

        I was having more of a go at the other dude. My approach was a bit obtuse.

  Stick with (in no particular order) Goodyear, Bridgestone, Continental, Michelin, Dunlop
  then Kumho, Hankook

  I am using this one, it's very quiet. Very good value for the money.
