BEST all-seasons in snow/slush/mid-Atlantic crap

my take on Perelli P Zero Neros M+S

This is my situation...

All season comute tires?

Philly, will I need All-Season for the winter?

Check out tire rack or Rotas, a couple of members run pirellis 4 seasons.

Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S

wundej · 06-03-2006, 03:09 PM

I think most people will suggest the PZero Nero M+S, or the Conti's.

I have the Kumho Ecsta ASX's and have been pretty happy with them. I have a bit over 18k on them and they are still holding up well. The are a pretty good all around tire for an M+S tire, cheap too. With that being said, I'd probably try the Pirelli's if I was going with all seasons again (I'm going with a summer and winter setup so no more a/s for me).

If you decide to go with the Pzero Nero's, let me know. I have a pretty much brand new one that was on a set of wheels I bought (11/32 tread depth, which is stock depth). You can save a few bucks if you buy that one and three elsewhere.

I think i'm gonna go w/ the Pzero, but i think i'm gonna buy all 4, it'll all end up being the same when i pay for the shipping, or at least close, haha...thnx for the offer though, now if you have a pretty good catback exhaust, i'd be interested

scubynewbie · 06-03-2006, 03:56 PM

ok, changed my mind, i've decided to not go w/ they Pzero, b/c i have crazy amounts of snow where i live. I've decided to go w/ Continental's Ultimate High Performance AS...i asked my bud who has an STi and he said it's better to go w/ the Continentals...but thnx for the help though

91TB78 · 06-03-2006, 05:31 PM

Another good option is the Falken Ziex 512 A/S. In MI I would imagine you guys get a lot of snow like we do in MN..go with a dedicated performance winter tire like the Dunlop M3...

No problem.

If you are going w/ the conti's, I'm pretty sure these are what a lot of the guys are running as an all season

I'm really not sure what this had to do with this thread, I didn't see anyone mention rain in it.
