Default Pirelli P zero nero m+s

HI,

I just bought these tires from Jim@tirerack. Very good service and speed from Jim but delivery was a bit shady. they just left them on the front door at my friends house. what if she hadn't come home early that day? someone probably would have taken them. luckily that didn't happen but I was pretty disappointed that they just left them there. who would be responsible if someone had taken them? no signature required or any confirmation needed? anyways, enough whining.

had a question. I notice the tires have an outside and inside. but I couldn't find a left or right on them. does it matter? because they would be rolling in opposite directions then. any help is appreciated.

thanks

If they are unidirectional, they will have an arrow on the sidewall indicating which way they should turn. Look carefully. If you don't see one, chances are, it doesn't matter. Does the tread design look like they would be unidirectional?

Pirelli P zero nero m+s is not uni-directional tire, it is asymmetrical design. There is no Left or Right side, it is needed to be mounted correctly, i.e., Outside mark must be on the outside. You can rotate asymmetrical tires, left and right only for stagger tires.

the tires have no arrows or other marks on them to indicate direction. I do see the outside label on them though. thanks for the info as always. I will make sure they get installed correctly

I havent' installed them yet so i don't know how they perform yet but I have heard good things. they cost about 100each on tirerack.com. I think they were on special so you should go to their website or call JIM for current prices.

I don't know how to use the quote ppl option so i hope everyone knows who I am talking err. writing to with each statement.

thanks again everyone

I have been running these tires now for about 2 months. They are great for around town driving. The treadwear is amazing and the wet traction is good. I drive my car pretty hard on a daily basis and they hold up!

i got 205/55/16 and 225/50/16. I didn't go for the 245/45/16 b/c it is not available in this tire. so i just went with the stock sizes. i don't imagine it will make too much of a diff. i hope not anyways, but the all season rating will be worth it as it rains alot in vancouver even if i do lose some performance
