Pirelli P Zero System (Collezione) 

I have used this tire for about 4 track days (Watkins Glen) and 2 autocross days, in addition to a few thousand miles of on the street driving in NY city. I could not be happier with the chioce. On the track the tires give great feedback and hold up to aggressive driving. The performance envelope is huge and I have tracked them in hot weather and rainy weather without any issues.
On the street they offer comfort and low noise. Highly recommended over cheaper brands.

These tires are the best handling, grippiest tires I have ever used. They are durable and solidly built. While they are a bit noisy, the cornering in my Jag belies the size of the car and they perform just as well when it is wet with no threat of losing traction. As for wear, they are not worse than any other high performance tire. One thing I have noticed with the Pirellis, especially compared to Michelin, is that they grip throughout the entire life of the tread, whereas with the Michelins would lose traction even though they had some rubber left. Definite buy if you grip is what you want.

Traveler's, if you love responds, quiet, safety, and grip, then you will be astonished by the qualities in the compound formula in the Pirelli Pzero System. (Note- System style Pzero could be fazed out.) I have driven hard and normal. The best information I can pass on are two stories. First, while travelling in the midwest, I covered nearly 400 miles at 80 MPH thru hard and normal rain and occasional ruted HWY. The tires never faulted. The handling and hydroplaning resistance was outstanding. As for a true test, canyon driving the best! Travelling thru the canyons of eastern Oregon, the tires surpassed even the computer warnings, that is, I had exceding traction control system limits. Not even, the lighter sportscars could maintain the pace I set. The car can only rise as far as it's tires. After putting 19,000 on this set, I'm still have 7/32 left. I have heard complaints about tread life in some reviews. I have found pocket racers reviews are poor information for sportcar lovers. I would definitely purchase another set, that is, if Pirelli maintains this series.

PS = The tires, across the face, wear incredibly even.

Bought a set of 4 from tirerack special closeout price ($81/tire)! an amazing deal but keep in mind they were a set of 4 Dirrezionale not the actual "system" where 2 (usually front) tires are direzzionale and the rears are asymetrical. I have only had the tires on my car for a few days and I must say the improvement over the Firestone Firehawks wide oval indy 500s i had before is vast. they are much quieter and more comfortable, though there is some noise as highway speed but nothing bothersome whatsoever the only way to avoid most tire noise is to look into "grand touring" tires. But for a Max Summer performance tire they are quiet and comfortable.
Quite soft over bumps and pot holes not punishing at all.
Also the thing that stands out the most about these is the grip.... it is a challenge to get the car to loose grip be it in the wet or dry. These tires are exceptional as far as grip and cornering. Though stability is a bit questionable as it does wobble just a bit under hard cornering ( but that's probably attributed to my 45 wall size tire).
If you can get these on a closeout sale or something similar they will be well worth it. though I don't know if i would pay $200+ per tire, at this price point i would go with Michelin Pilot Sports.

An outstanding blend of noise and road comfort combined with high performance that is hard to equal in just about any other max performance tire. The closest to it is Pirelli's own PZero Rosso, which wears even faster (despite having a higher UTQG). Both axles fitted with Asymmetric, since Quattro AWD. For a heavy, powerful, near-luxury sedan, I appreciate the supple driving dynamics as much as the cornering and braking performance. We fitted Michelin Pilot Super Sports to our A-4 2.0 S-Line, in nearly the same size (235/40-18 versus 255/40-18). In comparison, the PSS have higher limits, react immediately to control inputs, and have a slightly harsher ride -- perfect for a car with sport suspension. Still, I love the silky ride the PZeros deliver on this larger, standard suspension Audi sedan. I can see why Jaguar (previously) fitted them as OEM on several of their performance models.

You'll note that we live (and drive) in Vermont. No one up here is foolish enough to run either the PZero or PSS in the winter months. These are tucked away in the garage from late-October until right about now (May). The Pirelli Winter 240 Sottozero Serie II has been a revelation: a true performance winter tire that actually works in bitter cold, in snow, and on icy roads. But that's for another review....

exellent tire, if you dont mind replacement at 8500 miles! Treadwear not adequate for me. Moved into yokohama s4 for better treadlife, handling remanis terrific.

Daily driver and autocross use. Good traction but after 2/32" wear these are the loudest tires I have ever experienced (and Ive had Contis). Probably exacerbated by the tread block wear you get from autocrossing. Normally noise doesnt bother me but this level of noise is astounding.

Wore completely out at 7500 miles. Miserable wear. I thought my NSX was hard on rear tires...ouch! The performance does not outweigh the short life. These were only used on long trips on the highway. Unbelievable.
