Has anyone heard of Mazzini tyres? Are they any good?
Im looking to replace the rear tyres on my V70, at the moment i have Michelin which are the originals with a date stamp of 2008. I cant justify paying so much for Michelin i find them over priced. They are a fraction of the price at £69.82.

Hmm thats put me off seeing that. Ive heard other people talking about Falken are they a own make or made by someone else? They seem to get an ok response.

I like barum made by continental. Hard wearing, and good in the wet. National tyres usually have a deal online...

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

Nexen or Kumho are good tyres, well priced too.

I like Falken, wear life is not an issue with me as I am hard on any tyre! None last very well.
Having said that, I am a keen "tryer" of odd brands; worst case they are diabolical so end up on the front where they wear fast, or swapped with someone for repurposing as trailer tyres. Currently impressed with "Aoteli" from one of the Chinese factories. Good treadwear rating and depth of tread, typical cheap tyre issue of not-so-stiff sidewalls (not dangerous, but a lot of give in spirited use).
Philip, please tell us how they fare.
