        Hello Keith,you ok my friend---yes I have the Lassa's on and they are fine--made by Bridgestones and have good reviews.when I had the Vectra and when I first bought it it had Accellera's on and they were awful in the wet----had a lot of trouble getting the bloody things balanced too--I then changed to Falkens which I rate highly and never had any problems after that------Dave

            I don't find them too bad, depending on how you drive. Do get more wheel spin though. The best tyres I've ever used were uniroyal rs3s, excellent in the wet, but wear quickly due to a softer compound. But as quoted earlier, I don't do the mileage to warrant expensive tyres..

              I bought a set of different alloy wheels for one of my cars a few years ago and it came with accelera I think it was. They were almost new and found them ok would spin up if you pushed it in the damp or the wet however after a few months they changed would easily spin up and became very difficult in the wet resulting in understeer very easily and roundabouts you get get the tail out so these we quickly changed.
              From then I’ve stayed away from budget tyres and buy known brands as they work better for me.
              Tourer is being ran on uniroyal rain sport 3’s and the wife’s vx line is on goodyears. Can’t fault either of the cars with these on.
