Been given a great price on 2 P Zero Rossos (100 load rating) and before I take the plunge what is the consensus on these hoops?

From looking at the previous threads on tyres, I think the general concensus is that Pirelli's are good on the Ro, although they can wear quick.

Hasn't Stiggy got the superior R8 though? hehe

If the price is that good, then I think you have to take a punt for all of our sakes.

I wouldnt waste my money on the Pirelli's

Had them when Ro was new, and glad they where bald after 3000 miles lol

There are a few other better tyres out there. Michelin come to mind and im using Goodyears right now, which are miles better than the Pirelli's and cost less

Maybe for normal driving the zero's are good but dont push then around a corner to fast.....
