Pirelli P Zero Nero M/S or Khumo Tires

Anybody have any experience with either tire? The reviews on Tirerack.com are very favorable for the Pirellis and the tread wear looks to be double that of the PS2's.

In May I put a set of 18" ST4's and Pirelli P-Zero Nero's (m&s) on my S500, just to change the "look" for a few months of summer driving. I've got to tell you the tires have been wonderful. They look good, they stick well, and they perform better in the rain than my oe Michelins. Initially I was a little suspect of the Tire Rack ratings, but so far they have been right on the mark. I'd buy them again without hesitation.

I Like My PZNs

My Pirelli P7000s lasted about 35,000 miles. I went with PZero Neros last fall. They're quiet on the road, and handled well in the snow. I'm happy with my decision.
