Amazing tires, ran them on all four corners for a while. If you payed that little for them you got one hell of a deal!

Dont ask questions, if they charge you for that amount its a done deal. You scored! Get'em and run.

lol. exactly what i did. I placed the order patiently waited for my shipping confirmation, then immediately called them and said "whats the catch?"

The guy said there was no catch, that they were simply overstocked. I will know on Thursday, if theyre good, im going to order another set to save for next time too, lol

I found a few other positive reports for them on various "yellowpages" type sites

We will know for sure on Thursday though.

FYI, the Pirelli P Zero Rosso's do run narrow. I had a set of them in 275/35/18s and they weren't any wider than the factory goodyear 245/50/16's that came on my car.

Hey man, how you been?

Thanks for the FYI. I recently replaced my Nitto 555RII 305/35/18s on 10.5"s up front with a pair of 295/35/18 P Zero Rossos and they are definitely narrower than the Nitto, which supposedly also run skinny. Im thinking the 315's will be perfect, if not a little beefy, on my 10.5" rim

Thumbs up
Doing good, as always looking for something new/improved to replace factory parts on my ride.

So hows the sub amps holding up, or should I say subs?
