Default Pirelli PZero

My stock tires are pretty much done with and I was looking at buying the Pirelli Pzero's.....

Does anyone have these on their car? If yes, what are your thoughts?

Thanks


ADDED TO ORIGINAL POST:

On my stock run flats every time i hit a pothole or and type of irregular cement my steering wheel moves on its own and it makes a lot of noise....

Are either of these gonna happen with the Pirelli Pzero's?

Thanks

You are not looking at the PZero Corsa, are you ?

I have no experience with the regular PZero.

Have the Nero on my '01 Mustang GT and they are awesome! Have about 20k on them and they have a little more than half the life left on them. Don't have any exp with Corsa.

Not the same tire. There are P Zero, P Zero Corsa, P Zero Nero, P Zero Assimetrico, P Zero System, etc. The "just" P Zero is the version I'm assuming was referenced in the original post. It is an appropriate non-run flat replacement for the C6 tires.

I have the 20 inch versions on my Jag XF Supercharged, and I reall like them. They're relatively sticky, the ride is reasonable, and the responsiveness feels quite good. They aren't as noisy as my Goodyear F1 SC on my C6, but they aren't quiet either. (as with the GYs, pavement that has been grooved for rain run-off is the worst)

Hope this helps.
