Tires Pirelli or NITTO

I was looking for the same size but Kijiji'ed a 1-year old set of Pirelli Winter Carvings, on steelies, for 340. Checked the wheels for rust/cracks, treads, consistent pressure across tires.

I have Nitto Motivo tire on my Golf and love them. Good grip and wear.

I bought 17" rims and Pirelli Sottozero 3 performance winters. The one time they saw snow last year was a ton of fun and they handled it like a champ. The other 99% of the time, when they were driven in the rain, they were awesome.

mine came with pirelli cinturato p7 all season plus, for the 18\" autobahn trim wheels.

thankfully i opted for the wheel / tire protection and that paid off. ive had every tire replaced at least once, and finally just switched to pirelli's which i have loved for the past year and a half.

I have run P7s on over 4 different cars and I love them for all seasons. However, the Sottozero high performance winter tire rocks!

The closest you'd get is a set of Pirelli slicks for track/race use, or P-Zero Trofeo if you wanted something road legal.

I ran a set of pzero nero and they were ok too, but they lost grip very early in life and got noisy. They say MS rated but they could barely handle any slush at all without squirming.

I have the same tires on our 12. Car currently has just shy of 40k miles, I took the car out to see how it would perform in some snow we had gotten. The tires were rock solid and almost caused me to crash twice. Once I was doing less than 5mph slowly applied brakes on a very slight incline and just slid, not on ice but snow. Second was similar getting into a parking lot. Maybe in just spoiled in my S4 with blizzaks, but I'll be replacing these with something different soon

I have those on my Mustang right now and they have no where near the performance of the outgoing P Zeros.
