"'04 V70R - Great Dry weather tire. Darn good in the wet as well. Wouldn't trust these in the snow though. When the weather gets cold (hey I'm Canadian) these feel like you are driving on wagon wheels. 18000 km's and these tires are pooched. Poor sidewall construction results in a lot of sideways jumping. Good riddance P- Zero's -- maybe there is a hidden meaning in their name!!!"

"Touareg V10 - 275/45/19 - Pretty much the same as the other reviews- great handling, pretty quiet. In AZ we don't get snow but in the rain they're a little scary! Of note, VW dealer is eating the cost of replacement due to horrible wear! (they owed me a BIG one for another issue so I think this may be their apology BUT I didn't ask-they offered!) Replacing with Toyo's...we'll see!"

"350Z - 275 - These are the grippiest tires I've ever known. However, do not get these unless you are willing and able to replace the rears (in rear drive cars) every 10,000 miles or less. The wear is as bad as everyone here says it is."

"AUDI A3 1.8 T - 225 - 17" - Audi A3 1.8T Tuned to 235 HP. Tyres are great, they really glue to the road, but wear a little too quick. It's worth the ride though! Great Performance!"

"2004 Volvo S60R - 235/40/18 - Got almost 27K out of them. OK tires. For the money, there are other better alternatives."

"Cobalt SS supercharged - p215/45r18 - Factory tire - loved the dry traction. these tires wear fast, but really with the traction you get it can be expected. Would buy again but will see if other tires will be better for rain. I could break the tires loose at highway speeds easily. Still like the the tire. traction was predictable."

"Mercedes CLK 500 - 225/47 R17 front and 245/40 back - Good cornering on dry roads; in the wet hydroplaning can be scary and coupled with the Merc's electronic nanny - can be seriously dangerous at junctions; in snow they are downright impossible - coudl harldy get out of the back lane and then would you believe 30 minutes to travel one block. Another 30 back with two nice shopping ladies pushing. In everyday driving in the city - they are noisy, trundlely and tramline; wear not so good. Hoping to find good all-weather replacements (this web site suggests Pirelli Pzero Nero - but 'piccate' am now put off Pirelli). Note that Merc dealer said this is a "summer car" and advised not to drive in winter (!) - maybe they think I have more dough than I have."

"06 BMW 330i - 235/35/19 - I had these tires on aftmkt rims and they grip the try road really well. But they wear out really fast. I had the tires for only 5000kms and I must say I would need to buy new treads in a few months. Expensive tires and poor tire wear. I would not buy these tires again. Not worth it."

"VW Treg V8 - 275/45/19 - I have the P Zero's on my V8 Treg. With 8,000 miles on the clock,I am almost sure they wont see much more than 16,000 miles. Given my wife drive super slow, taking the kids to school and sport the treadwear is horrible. Otherwise a fine tire. "

"Merc CLK 500 - Absolutely NOT recommended. Hydroplane and scrabble-like-a-rabbit in the wet, totally undriveable in snow, dreadful wear - only 22K OEM. Squeal alarmingly round corners in the dry and make loud flappy, flappy flappy noise over ruts. Only use if you have another car for dry, warm, summer weather. (Actually - NEVER use)"

"2002 Acura RSX - 205/55r16 - Great tires for traction and handling. 12k miles and they're worn out. Acceptable for their purpose. It's a summer tire; expect poor snow traction. Great steering response and great in the rain when they have grooves. at 4/32" they become solid tread with small grooves."

"Holden Monaro CV8 Coupe - 235/40 18 - Incredible grip wet or dry, much quieter than original Potenzas. Reasonable wear if you rotate regularly."

"HSV Clubsport 6 litre - 245 355 19 - I had the Pirellis on a 297 kilowatt HSV Clubsport, previously I had Bridgestones on a similar car, their performance was not quite as good for the first half of the tread but they maintained their performance for the full tread depth. The P Zero is an excellent tyre until you drop below 50% of the tread depth. After that I felt like I was driving on 50 cent pieces (twelve sided coins for non Aussie readers) and the tyre noise and vibration drove me crazy. They also tram-track unbelievably once the tread is down. I didn’t have to put up with it for long though because the wear rate is appalling. "

"Audi A3 '06 - 225/40 ZR - Came equipped with purchase of car in May,'06. Since our roadtrip in August we have suffered 3 blowouts with complete shredding of tire sidewalls. One per month. Dealer of no help, pirelli of no help. "damage due to road hazard causing low air pressure and subsequent damage". Needless to say we are extremely suspicious of these tires. Replaced with continentals. Do not purchase a vehicle with these tires they are a huge safety risk for you and your family"
