The Pirellis on my Skoda are noisy and harsh - can you recommend something else?

I have a Skoda Superb running Pirelli P7 235/45 R18 tyres. I find them noisy and harsh. Can you suggest an alternative for a softer quieter ride?

Not on those wheels. To get a quieter ride and longer tyre life switch to 16-inch or 17-inch wheels and fit Continental All Season Contacts or Michelin Cross Climates.

Check Tyres On The Drive (bit.ly/2ZlEVaR) and Blackcircles.com (bit.ly/2JM6bqG) for sizes and prices and read our Tyre Buying Guide (bit.ly/2wsFHBU).
