I've tried out lot's of tires the last years and found what others seem to know from the beginning; quality comes from the same brand over again. The last years I've gone from Hankook, Barum, Good Year, Sunny, Nokian, Michelin to Continental, Bridestone and now last season to Pirelli Zero.

What a fantastic tyre, grips, holds, responses and performs. Bare in mind I drive a Volvo which is among the worst cars made. I've also been very happy with Bridgestone 050's, but they weigh 1 kg more at the same size, so my choice goes to Continental Sport-series or as now, Pirelli Zero. After 10 km of efficient driving, the surface is already warmed up and grips.

The only downside is the wear. Mine lasted for 12000 km on front axle untile they were below 0,5 mm and I had to change for a set of new ones, the same brand of course.

Very happy with these, but next choice might also be Continental. Both C. and Pirelli are ligher than competitors, Pirelli is also slightly narrower on same size, where Bridgestone meets the full measure it specifies. Conti in between.

Have these on the rears of a BMW M3, they are fine until they wear and then they become a death trap. Replaced with Goodyear Eagle F1s although louder a much better tyre. I've had Continential, Vredesteins, Maxxis on various cars over the years and these P Zeros are so dangerous when wet or worn, I cannot recommend them at all for that reason alone (as others have said too). Wear was average.

This is such a hard wearing tyre have done 12k on these tyres and they are down to 5mm which is impressive on a Quattro. I am really impressed with the wet grip with these tyres on and they corner brilliantly but then again I'm not sure how much of that is down to the Quattro but I don't care these tyres are excellent.

Tram-lining on these tyres (especially as they wear) makes the car handling dreadful; came lose to giving the car back. As a consequence of that tram-lining I kept a close eye on the pressures; yet despite this and routinely driving sedately the wear was disappointing.

I have had these on since i bought the car at 1,900 miles. I am now nearing 20,000 miles driven and have only had to change one due to a puncture.

fantastic grip and ok comfort isn't great but then again can't complain considering the 19" size!

want these again so i am going to make sure i have the same ones made in the same country. I had a bad experience with my ford where i had one set made in malaysia and one made in germany, even though they had the same brand and name the tread was different and the grip was NOTHING!

where they are made makes a difference! regardless of brand.
They were goodyear NCT's.

i used this tyre on a 2006 mazda rx8 challenge(192 hp),very good grip both on wet and dry.very good feedback and high Aquaplaning resistance.
braking is also good both on dry and wet roads.

After the first 300 miles and the tyres had bedded in they seem excellent. Dry grip is very good, wet grip is very good. Have now taken off for winter so once have done a few more thousand after spring will update. The only down side is the wear. But if you want grip thats gonna happen. From the amount they have worn so far if they continue t owear the same there going to last 7500 miles. I was hoping for about 9/10k but never mind. Will probably buy these again. (these are the MO rated ones which have an A for wet grip rating)

Fitted from new on a Jaguar XF, my fronts are down to 1mm on the edges and 3mm in the centre yet am only on 11,000 miles, rears down to 4 across the tyre. I do not drive around like a maniac ! Still legal but looking to replace with Dunlop Sports.

Love this tire. Thought Michelin PS2 would remain my ideal tire until I bought these. The catch is the tire doesn't feel like much the first 200 or 300 km, after that it gets better by the day, after 1000 km it's incredible. The dry grip is immense, both on a straight line and in corners. The precision is a tiny bit less accurate compared to PS2 but otherwise it's hands down a winner. It's behavior is much sportier than PS2, imho. It's kind of like you get the performance almost comparable to semi-slicks such as Toyo R1R except with more gentle and acceptable public roads manners which is a good compromise. The wet grip and safety are good but not the best. Comfort is totally acceptable but there are more comfortable tires out there. I would suggest this tire for anyone with a small or mid-size car powerful enough for sporty and/or extreme driving looking for a solid performer primarily in the dry that wouldn't lose too much in the wet.

These tyres were fitted to my Jaguar XJ8 when bought new. I have now driven 42,000 miles and still only down to 3.5mm. Absolutely brilliant.

Really good tyres, never had any problems not even a puncture. Went on holiday for 6 weeks once and tyre pressures were the same as when I left. They were slightly noisy on the road but that depends on the road surface you're driving on as well. Overall they are good tyres.
