Pirelli P Zero Rules!
P Zero Nero is mainly destined to the Ultra High Performance replacement market and I replaced the rock hard EMT tires with them yesterday.
Wow! even with my sport Bilsteins the ride is great and cornering and traction seem excellent on dry roads. I woll post more after our rains start here in Florida about wet performance. 400 treadwear rating, made in Rome Georgia,USA in a new computerized plant. It don't get better than this.

Re: Pirelli P Zero Rules! (Y2k Vette Pilot)
I have PZero tires as well and am only moderately impressed with them thus far.
It is my experience that anytime we change our tires from old to new we always like the newer tires better. Stands to reason because the old stuff is hard because of the heat cycles and noisier because we have usually worn them down to the wearbars to get our monies worth from them. Any tire after that is a marked improvement.
If I could really afford new rubber every year, then I would never complain about any issue with tires........Just my humble observations. Results do vary. :seeya

Re: Pirelli P Zero Rules! (Goody)
Goody:
Street Tires must meet a mixture of conditions. Example; Drag tires give excellent grip but poor wear and poor wet performance. Beleive me I researched this decision for a long time. I will post my long term results but for now I feel that I made a good decision. Allied Tire here in Florida special ordered these at a great price mounted and balanced,I could not do better on the Internet if you consider the cost to ship,mount,ect. plus using a local dealer if problems.
