Vauxhall would have used whatever tyre company gave them the best deal at the time.

My CD auto came with Pirellis.

Just for info - In 1994 / 1995,
the most common standard factory fit tyre for LS spec and similar trim levels was the Michelin Energy.

firestone tyres was another. I've just fitted a set of Goodyear ultragrip performance. Seem to be very good tyres.
