For a couple of months now I have these tyres on. The Dunlop blue Response in 185/60/14 size.

They have great results in several tests and I am very happy with them in both dry or wet. I paid 240e which is quite good I guess.

After having spent 60.000km with the dunlops and still having a decent performance I moved on to the next tyres and so I decided to buy some Continentals (premium contact 5).
http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Conti ... tact-5.htm
They were in a similar price range to the dunlops (250e) but they are quite different in performance. This is for sure a harder and heavier tyre with stronger sidewalls which might give better cornering stability but it is noticeably less comfortable which is a bit annoying. Also the tyres' noise is a bit more. Performance wise they must be a bit stickier but not excessively more. So I think dunlops are the winner here.
