I don't know anything about the NCT5's I'm afraid. The Venturas are 55 quid
for 205 50 15s. Their grip is progressive and very, very good especially in
the wet. They don't seem to be any more noisy than any other tyre I've used.
In terms of longevity I don't know, I've only had them on for about three or
four thousand miles but they don't seem very worn.
