Installed Pirelli PZero Nero tires
Quick Summary:
I replaced my worn out Toyo T1-S Proxes 245/40ZR-17 tires with new Pirelli PZero Nero 235/45ZR-17 tires. The Pirellis are not as sticky as the toyos but they are quieter (toyos are about 10% grippier). The wet weather performance is not as good as the toyos either (again, toyos are about 10% better). But I will say that the dry and wet are still VERY VERY good, better than most other tires I've tried, but the toyos remain king...
Here are the pics:
As they came from tirerack.com...
The sticker that was on the tires when I got them...
Changing the tires...
All mounted and cleaned...
Final picture of my car with the new tires...

I havn't really tested them out yet. I had Potenzas before and they kicked ass too...but I couldn't pass up this deal.
