Mine came as standard on Continentals of some flavour. Been fine but nothing stunning. Got 10k on and still a couple of mm left. Let me know if you want the exact version or ref number or whatever.

Mine came with Pirelli P Zeros and they are OK

I've used Goodyear F1s in the past and they were excellent. I've heard great things about Michelin Pilot Super Sports so may give them a go next time.

Currently have Vredestein Ultrac Vorti's on all round, been on the car for 18 months since I bought the 19's very good TBH. The fronts are now down to 3mm and have a brand new pair of Michelin Pilot Super Sports in the shed waiting to replace fronts. Decided on them based on excellent reviews and in 20 years of driving never had Mchelins so wanted to try them, this is no slight on the Vredesteins just wanted to try the super sports.
If your in the market for a very good tyre at a very good price look no further than the Vorti's .

Currently got 17k miles out of the Vredesteins.

Got 35000 km on the Pirelli P7 that came with the car.
you have to decide on what is important for your driving, performance, longevity or price. Rarely do you get all in one.
