Up for a new set... any ideas or recommendations? Pirelli PZero Rosso came out best in one test I read.

My suggestion would be to stick with the Bridgestones. In our experience, they still offer the best all-round performance (especially at this time of the year!) compared to other makes. If you want evidence, in a recent Autocar feature, the Noble beat a host of other supercars on a wet test track by four seconds; and in the dry, it was only second to an R500. And many of the other cars - GT3, 360 CS - were on sticky cup tyres.

We're currently looking at other makes of tyre for the track/high-power version of the M12, but that's likely to be less road-focused anyway, meaning that its tyres will not have to offer so much of a compromise.

Hope this helps!
