Got an issue with my drive side front tire.
Flat and losing pressure rapidly, will take it in tomorrow to see if there is a nail in it or not. Anyhow, currently have P-zero pirelis, anyone recommend anything else? They are not that comfortable after all there're supposed to be sport tires.

I agree w/ unlukky 100%. I had the same issue on my old 2008 CLS. Front tire wore horrible, got an alignment and 2 new tires and car drove amazing and tires lasted 30K (and I drive very aggressively)

One of my rear tires did something very similar to that about a week after I got my car. I was told that it was likely the previous ran it on low pressures.

Also, P-Zeros suck. You'd be way better with Continentals or Michelins. There's a thread on here with people talking about tires

That's funny, just took off front drivers tire and it looked like that but worse. however we have had a slow leak for over a year that required weekly filling. tire had a improper sidewall patch and there was no fixing it, but the tires were still good. getting Continental Extreme Contacts on Monday.
