My original Pirelli's were loud after 10K miles. I couldn't wait to get rid of them. The Yoko's are very quiet with exceptional handling characteristics.

Pros: very quiet, exceptional handling
Cons: Pirelli's were loud
Mileage: 10000 km

I bought some Yokohama YK520s. As for performance they drive well and don't seem to squeal as much when they spin. The handling is very good and the ride is about the same as the Michelins. They road noise is also similar. They handle wet real well

Pros: good handling, wet performance
Cons: balance a bit off
Mileage: 7000 km

Including like new Pirelli P Zero Rosso 275/40ZR19, these puppies were $1380 delivered. The rims are flawless and I can recoup some money by selling the "B" centers. Tonight they are go on the car.

Pros: rims are flawless

YOKOHAMA Tires

For my A3, I went with Yokohama W.Drive's and they've been great so far...just a tad expensive! $375/tire at the local dealer...but since I needed them quick and no one else had any tires for my titanium option 18" wheels and most were sold out for the season, I said f*ck it and bought them. They should last me for a few winters...

Pros: great performance, good longevity
Cons: expensive
Vehicle: Audi A3

Be careful with anything that Pirelli makes with an M&S rating. I've owned both a set of Pirelli P7000 and P7000 SuperSports, which are M&S tires. The SuperSports flatspotted, wore unevenly and did not offer the grip/responsivness as the regular P7000.

Cons: flatspotted, wore unevenly
