What a P-Zero looks like after 21K miles!

Changed the original set today for new P-Zero setup (255/35 - 275/35)

Even though the Michelins are very popular around here I still
favor the Pirellis. I know they don't last as long as the PSSs but
I like the way it handles and grips whenever I decide to go back
roading and push it a little.. I am happy with them...especially
now with a bit wider tires.

My car is my DD + weekends, so it's definitely not a garage queen.

I wish I could have taken better pics but now they're gone to a
recycling facility somewhere.

If I decide to go PSS there is always next year

i had pzeros stock and they lasted literally 4k miles...but i did do one track day and one autox in them....even with some tread left, i couldn't put the power down in a straight line, it was just sliding all over the place...they were good initially but die out really quick.

the PSS is a great tire for the road and last very long as well but I have RE11's which I think are better.

No. I just replaced 265/35/19 P Zero with 265/35/19 Michelin PSS and the Michelin look bigger to me.

My 458 came with P-Zeros, and they were good for less than 16,000 kms. You should be happy that they lasted this much. Now i have Trofeo R's, hopefully i will be able to crack 8,000 kms barrier.

Do you have 0 camber going on? How is the inner shoulder not more worn than the dead center of the tread.

If P Zeros last you that long, you don't seem to drive your car hard. If you want I can track it for you. I have no track experience so far.
