Well, it's time to replace the sneakers on my 99 550. I have an incredible opportunity to get a new set Pirelli's FOR FREE! The current sizes are 255/40 ZR 18 front and 295/35 ZR 18 rear. I'm leaning toward P Zero Rosso. This is strictly a road car used in fair weather. My questions are: - Should I go with Directionale or Asymetrico? - If I can't get the 255/40s, what's the correct alternative size? - Anyone care to recommend an alternative Pirelli model? Thanks for forr input.
Hi, - Fronts Direzionale, Rears Assymetrico, better tracking in the wet tho' not really 'feelable' unless yer really pushing it! - 265/35/18 but not sure whether you can have that size by Pirelli, in the States. - New Pzero 'Hero'. Assymetrical pattern, front and rear and OEM on the new 'hi-po' models.
I just put Bridgestone SO-2s on my 2000 550 and am very pleased. I found the Pirelli's to be noisy. MB
