You probably dont want to know, but I recently got fed up with the stockies on the CDTi.
I managed to source a set of the twin 5 spoke HSV wheels (some people call them this, others cal them "optional" wheels, others call them "the ones that come on the convertible") at the right price.
So.. got new tyres.
Review:
Stock 205/55/16 Michellin Energy
RUBBISH
225/45/17 Bridgestone Re001 Adrenalin
Pretty decent (but not quite as nice as the Re050A's) for something with only 6km's of usage. They're now at 50km's of usage and they're bedding in much nicer. Very tight in teh sidewall on cornering, track more than the Re050's from memory though, but cheaper than the RE050's
