Installed new tires last year: Continental Conti Eco Contact CPP 235/70R15 - 103HTL. Ordered through internet for € 527,-
As the picture shows they are supposed to save fuel. This summer 13215 used 1 litre on 6 kms. (16,5/100) Rolling Eyes

This seems more like a SUV or 4x4 tyre so will provide for a stiffer, noisier & less comfortable ride.
Speed rating for a Lagonda is V = 149PMH / 240 KPH
This tyre has speed rating H = 130 MPH / 210 KPH
This may invalidate your insurance so beware !
Original Avons are only around £ 120 / € 165 each so why bother ?
Don't take the Smurf Lagonda above 210 KPH under any circumstances Siem Smile)

We were cruising smoothly at a rate of 150 kms back home from Switserland. Cannot imagine I Will ever go beyond 200. But maybe next year if you bring us to Franchorchamps I may violate all rules😜
