I currently have 245/40/18 and 265/35/18 P-Zero Asimmetrico's. So far I am satisfied, though that may change as I understand that once they wear a little, they are very noisy and many complain that they wear extremely fast. I would not rate them as high as my favorites which currently stands at Yokohama 100's, but thus far they are smooth, handle well if not great in the dry. Wet traction is OK though not great and they tend to squeal a bit to easy. Some amateurs would prefer this as it gives them a bit of latitude before the tires actually break away. I would prefer more to the edge.

i wrapped my new rims in 225/40/18 Pzero Nero's and so far i love them...i went from michelin P/S to these, they are quieter...haven't been able to really test them for traction though

P245/45WR-17 Pirelli PZero Nero M&S SL on today, drove home from the Shop, the RE030's were alot more sung around the corners and felt better at 115mph, maybe i need to break them in some more.
they are quiter though.
I have them inflated at 32PSI, that is what the shop guy said, i think that is low, any ideas

What size rims? If you have them on the stock 8" rims, you will need to inflate them a bit more to overcome the crown effect since the tire is wider than the rim. I would try 37-38 psi at first and then take them to 42-43 psi. My experience has been that the 42-43 would be better if your running too wide of a tire. But that was just my experience. Others may offer some better advice.

I usually recommend a 500 mile break in period for tires.
