My Mercedes CLS had the 'MO' PIRELLI P ZERO fitted when I bought it last summer, in the dry they were great but in the wet they were dreadful, roundabouts had to be navigated with caution, the P ZERO has been around donkeys years and in my opinion, it shows.
I had Hankook ventus S1 Evo 3 fitted a couple of weeks ago and they have transformed the way the car handles, they are quiet too, wet handling is vastly improved, no breakaway from the rear or wash out from front.
The steering response seems much sharper.
It's understandable why this tyre is becoming standard fit on several premium high performance cars.
I would consider my driving style to be 'average', I like to push on when conditions allow but doubt if I'll ever reach the limit of the tyres potential.
These tyres are notibly cheaper than the more top regarded brands too.
I'd highly recommend them.
It's early days do I can't comment on wear.
