If it looks like jobby and smells like jobby it probably is jobby!

Yokohama Advan AD08R (only recommend using above 10deg C. Under that and they become pants. But still usuable.)
Uniroyal Rainsport 3 (not tried the 3s but tried the Rainsport 2s and they were epic all year round).
Hankook Ventus Prime 2 (its a van tyre with a 103 load rating. but you never specified what size :lol: )

Neuton NT5000 and NT8000

'Budget' tyres that way outperform their cost.
I was put on to them by @indigolemon and wasn't disappointed.

Yoko Advan sport a bit snappy

Goodyear Eagle F1 grippy, progressive, feely, good in wet and dry. Not especially cheap.
