    Got a call this afternoon from my Ferrari mechanic, word is Pirelli doesn't make Pzeros for the 355 anymore? Tell's me the tire rack doesn't carry them and he has had no luck w/ anyone else. Is this true, Pirelli has discontinued this tire?

    I need help, I'm shipping the car back next week, she needs rear shoes ( 265x40x18 zr)
    - what is a good alternative or any help on where to locate Zeros.


    Thanks

    I just picked up a Michelin PS, about $300 from Tire rack. I was fixing a flat so stayed with the same tire, but if I were buying new I think the BF Goodrich listed on their site perform just as well for about $70 less (reading the owner reviews).

    I am using Michellin PS2 285/35-18 . The sidewalls fit "just right" on the stock wheel.

    PAP.......

    I have about 500 pictures of my car and I almost don't believe it myself, but I don't!

    Here is a pict of them off the car. I can tell you they don't rub and look fanF'inTastic. I also have 15mm spacers and it puts the tire right inside the well.

    I promise pictures for you..... promise

    You are da man. I'll PM you tomorrow a.m. I'll call jack at www.ferrariguys.com and inquire if the negligable change in size is ok w/ the current setup. I haven't a clue about these things.

    I run the 285/30/18 Pirelli PZERO on stock wheels. I always felt that the 265 was too small on a 10" wheel. Also the rear end always wanted to break away just a bit too easy. Go with the 285's and you wont be dissapointed.

    I replaced tires all the way around last year and went with PS2. I have been very happy with them.

    That is what I'm going with PS2 all the way around.

    Thanks to all for helping out with an extra kudos or props or shouts or whatever and to my man Lamour, sorry we couldn't hook up. But now I too have a front set of tires to sell as I didn't want to mismatch tread...haha, you need 'em? Call Jack at www.ferrariguys.com, $100 bucks for pair.


    ciao
