Pirelli Super Sport 7000 215/35/ZR18 Review

They suck a big one!!!

I got the tires for about a month now and they suck on wet roads! it was just sprinklin rain here this morning in Vegas and it was scary to drive on these tires... but i don't know if I'm just boosted and my clutch grips hard but even when I let it off so friggin easy it's free wheelin on me when I hit about 3k-4500RPM... dry road is not a problem... I accelerate and take corners tight and not a squeel....

anybody got the same set of tires and or is there any better tire out there that got the best all season performance with reasonable price??? I want real feedbacks not searching through 1010tires.com or tirerack.com feedbacks coz the people that write **** there either "too good" or "it sucks! period." types of feedback... thanks you guys...

it was raining yesterday...

the P-7000s did well as far as the control (cornering/tracking), but they did spin upon accelerating...that doesnt bother me too much though since it rains like 3-times/year here

i had them before on my TenzoR Shu4 and it was hella heavy, and too expensive, I got mine for 140each at discount tire , but wet traction is good

falken azenis handle great but ride really rough. the roads here are total crap, and it can be a choppy experience. but no complaints on wet traction.

cryption should not be trusted
for the $$ you should get Kumho 711's .. a good mix of price and performance/traction .. I autocrossed with them and drove in houston floods with them and they're a good set of tires for the money.

I was thinkin about the kumho712 my girls car have them and they are pretty good on wet road... yeah kinda soft side walls... but for the price I think it's ok...

any goodyear fans out there? I have had the Eagle F1 on my old 02 Si wheels... and they were great on wet roads.. I do burn rubber on them all the time, park brae and everything and it just pulls the whole car forward...
