Anyone have the new Pirelli PZero PZ4 RFT Tires?
Time for some new tires... dealer showed me these new ones with replace the "old" PZeros. Better tread rating and it's considered a "luxury" tire now. Better noise isolation apparently.
Anyone have these? https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...Clar=M%20Sport |

What a difference. The car is literally transformed. Yes I have compromised on the run flat convenience but the benefit of ride quality, sporty feel and driving confidence is worth it. Hope this helps. Omar |

They are more expensive than the current P Zeros... I really doubt i will go for P Zeros again on my X5. The Continental DWS06 are cheaper and has very good reviews.

Either way non-runflat gives a better performance all around and I think Michelin might just have the edge over Pirellis. |

Thanks all! I went ahead and ordered them.
This is the car that the wife and kid ride around in. So the option of non-RFT isn't one I'd feel comfortable with. Especially as I've had two nails in the rears in the past year. Will get them put on this weekend :-) |

+1...wish I had switched sooner. As mentioned above, I too have never had a good experience with Pirelli tires.

Just picked up my new X5 50i with 20" M wheels and it came with the new PZ4 version of the PZero tires.
I had the "older" Pirelli PZero 20" tires on my '14 X5 which I traded in, and the new tires definitely seem to ride and handle better. However, the PZero's on my '14 were getting pretty old and worn, so that probably has something to do with it. |
