Dont know if you can get them in USA but they beat Michelin in recent EU tyre test.
Me too! They are terrific and I paid less than $500, installed; for a set.

PZeros came on my 2015 Camaro, I was able to get about 30,000 miles out of them, I hadn't hit the wear nubs in the the treads on the rear yet, but getting close, but rainy seasons coming, so it was time.

I was going to go the PZeros again, but they were out of stock and on back order back order everywhere, the Michelins 4S were available the next day, for a little more, so went with those. 245/45R20 & 275/40R20

Less than a week since mounted, they have to go back for a rebalance, and they howl when I break. The howling is like a mud tire on a 4x4 going down the freeway, not as loud, but to have to hear it at all kinda sucks. My experience with the Michelins.

Hi Cheri,
I have Perilli tires on by 1997 XK8 and 2001 XKR but if I had to go with tire set that I know I would never have trouble with, I would get the Continental Extreme Contact DWS-06. I have had 4 sets of those and always were happy with them. Not cheap but here in California I can get them installed (out the door) for about. $900.00 for all four.

My Landsail tires were fitted on 19” wheels and were still under $500 mounted and balanced.
Terrific tire find.
