    PZero Corsas are expensive but amazing.

    Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Proper wet and dry road tyres (wont age harden with use) and gave my 430 so much grip it was a different car.

    RE-11 are fantastic dry performance tire. I have no idea what they do in the wet. I have them on the CS and they are much better than the Corsa system tires...so, let's summarize: RE-11 is much cheaper, lasts longer and sticks better. Works for me.

    Also, I have MPSS on my Gransport and they are fantastic too.

    Finally, OP - do a search in this forum...this has been covered many times, so there is lots of good info out there.

    My F430 has Perelli P Zero Rosso tires on it - I am very disappointed in the performance of these tires. Once they are work I will switch to Michelin PSS. I had PS2's on my previous Porsches and they are excellent wet or dry.

    I put new RE 11s on my 328 and am very happy with them. I wanted to put them on my wife's 430 but they were not available. Put the Michelin Pilot SS on based on two trusted mechanics' suggestion. Happy so far.

    There have been a lot of recent threads over the past couple of years on this subject. Michelin and Bridgestone RE 11 are by far and away the most popular. Choose between one of those and you can't go wrong. I went with the RE 11s and am very happy.

    It wasn't available in 225 fronts when I bought mine but the 235 works perfectly. I know first hand.
