Skoda Octavia - Barum Bravuris 3HM- New Tyres? - Glaikit Wee Scunner {P}

I was searching for new 245/45/17 tyres as my Barum Bravuris 2 are approaching the marker bars. For the same price the newer(?) Barum Bravuris 3HM are available. Anyone have any experience of them? I'm very happy with my current second set of Barum Bravuris 2 except I feel the mileage is not as good as it could be. The original type od Michelins were superb but the Barum is impossible to beat pennies per mile IMHO. The successor Michelins were much poorer for wear.

Done over two thousand miles now. The steering feels imprecise even compared to the previous Barums.Everything else seems OK. So a qualified thumbs up.
