Pirelli Tyres

"Doki" gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying:

I've never been impressed with the ones fitted to cars I've bought. P6000, P4000, IIRC.

I found the ones I had better at cornering than the Continentals I have now. Bridgestones are supposed to be quite good.

P Zero Rossos I had on the Zafira were decent enough. Not as grippy at the Pilots that came as standard though.

I've had P6000s on my E36 for a couple of years. *Extremely* difficult to unstick even in the wet. Not too bad on wear even with the SO hoofing it about. Good all round tyre IMHO.

I ran them on my Ibiza: P6000 & P5000 Drago. Found them OK- sticky but quick to wear.

IME different tyres suit different cars. A tyre that performs well on one car, doesn't necessarily perform as well on a different make or type of car. Meaning that advising someone on specific tyres doesn't mean that the particular tyre recommended is the most suitable one for their car. Mike.

Dragos are fine on the G, P Zeros seemed very good on the Elise.
