    Blew my Pirelli P Zero front Tire!! @ Pics

    Well, this tire wasn't the shit for performance even with it's 140 Threadwear, I really never liked it.

    The other day woke up the car with the tire with half of the pressure, I ran the car up to my shopp very slow but looks like the damm tire didn't support and blew the side wall.

    I purchased then a pair of Sumitomos HT RZ (made in Japan) and I must say this tire is very very good one option for the price and category, I really like this tire, grip is very very good a lokks good to me.

      That color is so nice!

      New tires look good.

                  Pirelli's don't do much for me. 10 years ago, they were great tires, but the rest of the industry has made huge steps forward in the past few years. They're great tires for Ferrari owners who have excess cash...

                      To be honest I didn't like those Pirellis P Zero Asimetricos, I had a good deal in the past and bought them (used), I had some issues in fast curves like (oversteer) I mean that doesn't turn right, lose grip.

                      The Sumitomos crappy Japan tires, LOL! match much better my style of drive, I tested them already and it's grip is far away better than my previous Pirellis, why?? don't know I even can believe it! :shock:

                          I rode in Stu's car back when it had Sumis on the rear, and I'll be damned if they didn't hook up better than the ES100s.
