Default Any opinions on a set of Pirelli P7000 supersports?

Great price on TR but there are mixed reviews. I don't do too much hard cornering but I would like to have some high performance A/S tires instead of swapping out for the winter months. It seems like you can feel every little imperfection in the road w/ my SP sport 9090's, so a more supple ride would suit me just fine. Also looking at a set of ContiExtremes.

OK for 20k miles, then rumble like off-road tires.

Conti Extreme Contact or Sumitomo HTR+ if price is a concern.

Sidewall bubbles. Try the Contis.

It works fine for me and never noticed any noise. Good Z-rated tire IMO, for the price

Default Yes... Read

I had them on my 98 Sport 2.8 and they were possibly some of the worst tires I have ever put on a car... terrible wear pattern, noisy as hell after about 6-10k miles and far too expensive... I would seriously consider something else. I went to Kumho after that and they were much better for less than 1/2 the cost. I now have the 9090 Dunlops on my 2002 sport and I think they are great... if not a little soft on the side wall...

Thanks and hope this helps.
