Not sure what is available in Europe... but I've had pretty good service from Kumho.
The first set were the Supra 712 model,

the 712 has a VERY hard sidewall, the biggest minus for me was the tread would get flat spotted overnight causing a bit of disturbance the following morning till the tire warmed and go round again.


and now I'm running on the Kumho SPT. My size is 195/50/15.

No such problems(flat spotting) SO far with this one. The sidewall is a bit more compliant, but still very quick.

Again... I'm not sure what is available in Europe... but to expand your choices a 15" wheel will allow you many more options
