Pirelli P-Zero Rosso's

[Fishboy]

Anyone else had problems with these?

Since the fronts have got down to half worn they are noisy and feel awful, they track any road imperfections and are really noisy above 50, they were fine when new.

As usual my IS250 flew through its 3rd MOT yesterday but the tester remarked on the uneven axial wear on the two front Pirellis, he said that must be awful to drive on and he is right. I''m going to treat myself to some new Michelins or Goodyears in the spring despite these horrible Pirellis being half worn, they really are spoiling and excellent car.

Did you have front ones asymmetric or directional? I ve got zero rosso asymmetric on rears and BF goodrich directional in front, they are quite noisy but grip is good. I will need new ones in the spring anyway. Let me know about your choice I haven't had searched yet properly.

Directional, tbf my local guy did all 4 for less than £500 so a good deal given the 16k I've had out of them but horrible now with 4mm left.

Sounds like an alignment issue to be honest. Have a look at this:

None of the above, I think it's a construction fault tbh but seeing that I've had 20k out of them so far I can't see a refund in the offering ;-)
