What are the best tires?
So i'm on a lease, and im debating getting new tires and swapping out the Bridgestones...I'm thinking of the Pirelli P-Zero's, but im not sure...any reccomendations for good high performance non-run flat summer tires?
I already have a truck, so snow/winter is covered, but I want something which will last longer than 8 months. Thanks.

Something sticky that will last more then 8 months might be a challenge. Were you looking for something affordable or high quality? What kind of driving do you do on them?

And for summer, these have the highest rated wet-traction....

Probably because you didn't have RFT's with TPMS. Duh. Also, the steel belted radial whitewall version is FTW.

same tread pattern as the nero summer tire, all season compound for long wear. i ran those on my R, except at the extreme limit, they stuck as well as dedicated summers. perfect for NYC, minus the snow. quiet ride too. maybe even the goodyear eagle GT. summer tires all have a softer, stickier compound that will wear out faster than an all season compound. if you're looking for long tread life, you'll want an all season compound. this is the Nero Summer tire: this is the nero M&S all season: only difference is the compound. treadwear on the summers is 220, 400 on the all seasons.
