Conversation Between tazandjan and Dougb450

Taz,
Thank you for your advice. I have much to ponder now, as my local exotic tire specialist (Eurotire of Fairfield, NJ) has just located a complete set of P-Zero System which aren't cheap but they are one of the originally specified tires. I didn't know he was going to be able to get them (something about a manufacturer backorder with no date in site) until after I sent you my request for help. So, I will now ponder exactly what to do over a beer or three.
BTW, I really like your 5 spoke wheels much better than my OEMs. What are they?

Have a great weekend,

Taz? Terry?,
Thanks for checking. Yes, I have the OEM 18" wheels. And this is the first time I'm faced with changing tires on any high performance machine so I don't know squat.

Appreciate your input,

I was told you are something of a tire expert. Well, here goes:
I'm looking to replace my tires and the original Michelins are no longer made.

The Pirelli P Zero Nero are available and are a-symetrical all around. This differs from Ferrari's original offering of the P Zero "System" which is symetrical fronts, a-symetrical rears.

Not sure if this is a good idea or bad. Another possibility is the new Michelin Pilot Sport 2's. But, these are 3/4" wider than the original and I'm afraid they will rub on the fenders (which are already bent from the original Pilot Sports.

Any advice?

Thanks very much in advance,
