Recommended "All-rounder" Performance Tyres [225/45 R17 for Peugeot 308 Turbo]. Arranged in alphabetical order: All are best for wet weather condition, hi-speed stability and cornering precision.
BRIDGESTONE - Potenza RE050A
The Potenza RE050A Pole Position features a high silica content [90%] tread compound molded into an asymmetric tread design, large tread blocks and a continuous center rib on the outboard side to provide responsive handling, high-speed stability and traction on dry roads, while wide circumferential and lateral tread grooves to minimize hydroplaning and aid wet traction.
The tires structure includes twin, steel belts reinforced by spirally wrapped nylon to stabilize the tread area and enhance traction, high-speed capability and ride quality while minimizing weight. The fabric cord body and higher sidewall reinforcement helps blend uniform ride quality with steering response and lateral stability.

CONTINENTAL - SportContact3
The CSC3 is developed for powerful sports cars, sports coupes and luxury sedans. The CSC3 is designed to combine outstanding braking capability and agile steering precision.
CSC3 tires feature an asymmetric design with solid tread blocks and a continuous rib on the outboard shoulder to improve responsiveness and cornering stability, while continuous intermediate ribs provide constant rubber-to-road contact to reduce noise and control the longitudinal forces experienced when braking. The continuous circumferential tread grooves help disperse water to resist hydroplaning and their asymmetrically angled walls further stabilize the tread ribs, increasing steering precision and reducing deformation while cornering. The notched shoulder blocks on the inboard portion enhance wet weather traction. The tires structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by nylon to stabilize the tread area and enhance handling as well as high-speed capability.

GOODYEAR - Eagle F1 Asymmetrical
The Eagle F1 Asymmetric is developed for high performance cars. The asymmetric in the name describes both the tires tread design and internal structure, both of which are designed to enhance performance in dry and wet conditions.
The tread uses Goodyears Racing Compound Technology to combine carbon black for dry traction, silica for wet traction and a new generation of polymers to optimize tread stiffness. This compound is to increase cornering traction while a continuous center rib improves high speed stability and an open inboard tread pattern disperses water. Wide circumferential grooves also allow water to flow from between the tire footprint and road. The internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced with three layers of cord to enhance tread stability and high-speed capability.

MICHELIN - Pilot Sports PS2
The Pilot Sport PS2 is a low profile, high-speed tires. Initially developed for OEM on some sports cars and performance sedans such as BMW Alpina Z8, McLaren SLR and Porsche GT2 & GT3 models.
PS2 features two different tread rubber compounds [a hybrid silica/carbon black compound] molded into an asymmetric design with large outer shoulder blocks and continuous intermediate and center ribs to enhance steering response and cornering stability. The tread design also features wide circumferential grooves and lateral notches that help channel water through the footprint to enhance wet road traction. On the inside, the tread design is supported by two high-tensile, lightweight steel cord belts reinforced by Aramid/nylon hybrid filaments to provide improved steering response and resistance to distortion while enhancing ride quality and high-speed durability.
