The thing with tyres is that everyone has a slightly different set of requirements from their tyres so asking which tyre is best is like asking who's opinion is most valid, there are no wrong answers. Generally though if you have the funds for premium branded tyres then there's a strong probability of whatever you choose being very capable.

That's exactly why I won't compromise on tyres, they are the only thing touching the ground.

If they're 8 and not minus/negative et -8
This could cause problems as your wheels will be 16mm closer together 8mm towards the inner wing on each side
