Default Okay TT tire gurus, let's hear it!

Pirelli 6000's (stock) or...?

It's almost time for new tires. Since I'm very happy with the feel and performance thus far, I'm inclined to put the P6000's back on.

Any other options for my 225Q Coupe on New England roads? (CT)

I'd like to hear pro's and con's.

Thanks in advance.

S03's, PZero's or Pilot Sports... You will never go back to P6000's

Default If you want real grrrrriiiiiip, get S-03 ----

they are confidence builders, relatively quiet, great in rain

I had PZero Rossos, and their grip does not come close to the S-03s

BTW, chuck the P6000s - don't know how long they lasted, but remember the Pilots or S-03 rubber is softer, so they won't last as long -- but you will stand in line to buy more

23k so far on the P6000's. One out of three wear bars (middle) now flush. The other two, about 1/8" to go.

I would just hate to buy Bridgestones...:&gt

Default I know, but if you read the reviews, you will get S-03 ----

I got 22k on my Pzeros, and expect less on S-03s

Most of the vets on the forum are or have gone to the S-03s
