P-Zeros also have a softer sidewall, therefore less acute steering. Look in your owner's manual, where the Michelins are listed "non per Spyder." (too stiff, I reckon) I found my 355s were much nicer on Pilots than on the P-Zeros. Spoke with a couple of guys at Tire Rack (Jim X 364 and Miles) who suggested they've found the same thing to be true. Most guys with these cars seem to be Pirelli fans, for some reason I can't figure.

I thought that might be the answer.
The car is daily driven,being that the case
I'd probably run through the P-Zero's faster
than I would care to.

Bill,

I doubt you would feel that way when time comes to change them. P-zero's are great tires but they do not last for beans. the Expedia's are OM and are great tires. They do not look as cool but they are better tires.

Go to the Tire Rack website. They will have side by side comparisons between these tire's performance and a list of subjective reviews from current and past owners. It's a very informative website.

I was dissapointed when I saw the car "didn't" have P-Zero's.
Any opinions on these tires??
