Goodyears all the way mate for me, Had two sets on mine and wouldn't touch another tyre at that price! In fact I'm going to order some right now as I need another 4!

2008/58 Tornado Red Edition 30 (No. 1853) 5dr DSG - Gone but never forgotten
2017/66 Tornado Red Golf R 5D - Lasted 6 months before being sold on
Still have a TFSI in the family - 2009/59 Audi S3 8P facelift Stage 2 tuned
Oh and a Mk1 Golf GTI cabriolet

They are both the correct tyres, 225 40 18 XL Y-Rated.

I'd take the Goodyears over the vReds at that price (and have). £83 a boot is very good.
