Pirelli Tyre Deal

[bonus99]

Hello,
I just had 2 x Pirelli P Zero Rosso 285/30/18 N4 supplied and fitted from online purchase at Kwik Fit (fitted at STS centre)£223 each all in !!

Bargain!

Normally have Michelin PS 2 but this price is too good to be true IMO.

If Pirelli floats your boat and you need some rubber then now is the time to purchase as I not sure how long they will be at this price.

Cheers

Bruce

Rosso's

So am I likely to regret this then?

Had those on the car when I bought it, then went to Conti then Michelin.

Probably would not go back to Conti, Michelins are good but pricey.

Will have to see I guess

I had PZRs on my 997 when new, changed for PS2s which are noticeably better in most ways, especially grip and wear. Perhaps they're a tad noisier but not much. I would never go back.

Good price for a good all round tyre.
I've got contisport 2's on my 996 turbo and will shortly be replacing them again as I just prefer Continentals.

I bought the Pirellis from Kwik Fit last week (255/40 on a 17" N3 rated) for £153 each. And they have free mobile fitting at your home or place of work.

Cheapest price I found anywhere for N rated tyres. And they are P Zeros. And they came to me to fit them! Bargain.

Pzero is an excellent tyre!
Pzero Rosso is a ste tyre!!

A very big difference between the two.

You could have got the Michelins for that price at formula one autocentre, just had 2 x 285/30/18 PS2's fitted for £440

i need to replace my rear tyres (pzero rosso) in a few thousand miles but the fronts are relatively new. What are the issues with them? I'm not keen on eplacing all 4 when the fronts are fine.

Is it a noise, grip or wear issue?

Thanks
Billy

Thanks for the objective and detailed comparison of the tyres.

The P Zero Rossos seem pretty good to me - certainly grip better than the Michelins i had on it before. Plus they have the N rating so can't be that bad!

Whatever you think - I'm happy with them! And even happier with the price.

I guess these are 18" are they? Do you need a voucher code to get that price?

Not so fast........

I just bought the same size from Event Tyres who are also good mobile fitters. Michelin Pilot sports 2 Rated N3 for £173 each. So with the £50 cash fuel card for 2 tyres that Michelin are offering, each tyre is effectively costing me £148 for these halo tyres. Never heard a bad word about the michelins but you do with the PZeros.

Nankang or Hankook any good? 255/40/17 Hankooks rated 'B' for fuel/rain/noise at less thna £90ea
