    Has anyone replaced their tires on their Scuderia yet? I do about 6 track events per year. My Pirelli P-Zeros are just about done! Trying to decide to replace them with the same or something different?

    Yup, replaced them with Toyo R888s.
    More grip, less understeer, less comfort, more tire noise.

    Be very careful with the tires. This is why they do not recommend slicks, too. The algorythm built into the CCM brakes for the dash will not work correctly and the grip and resistance of the tires will not show correct brake wear.

    Someone was recommending Michellin PS2 for a F430. How are these tires on the track compared to the Pirelli's?

    Have always had Michelins on all my performance cars. Will replace my current Scud tires with the PS2s when the time comes.

    Having logged tons of miles (road/track) in various Porsches on Michelin PS2/Cups as well as their Pirelli equivalents, I would personally recommend Michelin over Pirelli.

    I guess I will be sticking with the Pirelli's, since it looks like I will be getting them free on the recall.

    I agree, although my next set is a gift from Pirelli. The PS2 cups will have to wait.
