Great thanks for this advice, it is very helpful. Delivery is not until April so hopefully a lot of the cold weather will have gone by then but of course wet weather is always a threat in the UK!

The Pzero is not quite the nightmare people make out when things warm up, yes an MPSS is still better particular in wet, but if wet weather is what is scaring you then fit a tyre like the Uniroyal Rainsport 3 as it is another major leap on from the MPSS in the wet.

The Pzero is just a miserable performing tyre whilst cold, it simply does not switch on anywhere near as quick, takes some getting heat into, then it performs better, so in wet summers it is OK, so I'd learn the car on those and take it easy and swap them out around October time when things cool down.

I have found the rear pzero's to be wearing quite badly, I'm not hammering the car at all, and after 4500 miles they are over half worn. I ran Kumho tyres on the back of my VXR8, and they were brilliant in comparison.

Pzero wear very fast when driven hard, or with heat in them. If your a steady driver they last pretty well.

Mine by 4500 miles were down to around 2.5mm on the rear. :D


This is where MPSS/PS4/PS4 S is miles ahead of other tyres, they wear far better once heated up, which is why I got so much life out of MPSS on track compared to other tyres including Pzero on my M3 and when I owned the 911. :)

Which MPSS tyres???

Hi,

Can someone confirm which MPSS tyres I should be buying for the back of my S550?

I can only find 275/40R19 105ZR(Y) - which are different (105Y instead of 101Y) and I think may be classed as XL?

Thanks
Chris
