Default Avon ZZ3 tyres - anyone on here using them?

As thread title. These have been recommended to me by my mechanic as a fantastic tyre for the money. As I'm not exactly loaded and running two cars, are they up to the job?

I used them on my TT a few years ago. Decent tyres in the dry and wet, that said I'm not guilty of pushing it. Certainly not in the plastic Asian pile......

i have them on the front of my scoobie. running 280 bhp ish with coilovers etc , and they handle ok. they squeel like hell when pushed hard and will lose grip in dry if pushed to limit. but for the money they are ok. i would try and buy some falken fk452's as these are very good tyres and can be found cheap

I found them to be ok, but the tread block design lead them to be very noisy.
