My front tyres are almost bald and I'm really struggling to find a supplier for the Pirelli P Zero Corsa AR tyres.
I know there are other options but the Pirelli rear tyres are still OK.

Anyone having similar problems?

Yeah I had a major issue finding any which was a nightmare as I’d had a puncture. Ended up having to fit a used one from eBay of all places, though tbf it was nearly new!

I’d probably just bite the bullet and swap all 4 if you can?

Mine is now on winters which I bought last year, thankfully. When I needed new fronts in the summer I went for Michelins. Couldn’t get the rear Michelins owing to supply shortages, but fortunately the rear corsas had plenty life left for the few months until the winters went on. My preference would be for Michelins all round. Not ideal running mismatched front and rears but no issues.

I’ll be going for PS4S or Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersports when my my winters come off in the spring. The Corsas are just too compromised for UK use, especially when a bit worn.

out of interest what winter tyres are you using?
I'm picking up a QV with Corsa's but I want more suitable tyres on now then refit the Corsa's for spring / summer.

I'm using Pirelli Sottozeros (AR marked) for winter, in the same sizes as the summer tyres. I just a get a mobile tyre fitter out twice a year to swap them on my one set of rims.

AR marked Sottozerros here too, although they were a bit of a pain to find. Local place could source the fronts but I ended up getting the rears from mytyres.co.uk, who are actually German-based despite their UK web address, so they took about 2 weeks to arrive.

Michelin SuperSports handled much better than the spongy 4S's on my M Coupe, I'd look for Supersports if I had a Q.

Pirelli sottozeros for me too. I bought them new off eBay from Italy.

Changed my Zero's to MPS4S on both my Stelvio & Gulia QV, the difference is night & day in cold/wet conditions.

They're more than good enough in summer too unless you drive like a lunatic on the road!

I did just that. PSS are the exact sizes, they are MO1 (=AMG). Excellent tyres with a much larger operating window, in terms of temperature and rain, and hardly any drawbacks compared to the Corsas.
