Hi!
Choosing tires is difficult, i think. I have Pirelli Pzero Rosso 235/45x17 on my new (2007-5-16), and I think they are noicing more than I approve. What kind of tires would you suggest, if anyone is able to tell me? I have seen different tests that conclude with Bridgestone Potenza RE050A Pole Pos. or
Michelin Pilot Sport PS2.

I have the Bridgestone and they give very little road noise and good grip on the corners. The ride comfort is very good as well, can't compare with the others stated as never tried them, always seem to get Bridgestones on my high performance cars.

Cheers

I have these Bridgestones on mine too and agree with the comments.

However - I've done 13666 miles and the front tyres are being replaced next week as they're worn out... Rears have another 1/2000 miles left on them.

Looked at others to try to increase tyre life but local tyre dealer said not many manufacturers make tyres in this size and could only offer Goodyears as an alternative. Have stuck to Bridgestones..
