Hi all - another question......
My Targa I have recently bought does need new tyres.
I knew that when I bought it - but I am not sure what's best for me to go for for.
Currently it has:
Tyre (front) Pirelli P Zero 245/35x20 N1
Tyre (rear) Pirelli P Zero 305/30x20 N1
I am not an aggressive driver - won't be taking the car to any tracks.
The car is sort of my daily driver - but I don't drive daily - more like 3 or 4 times a week - and not many miles in a year - probably 2000 max In the UK if that.
But - I might want to take the car abroad for a road trip of sorts.
I want the nearest to all weather tyres (typical UK driving) - without having to have two sets, summer and winter.
Ideally lower noise tyres
Delivering better MPG
And tyres that will last well - although given my driving style I would imagine they will wear well anyway.
They must be N rated for the warranty.
And do either make affect the price achievable on eventual resale of the car - or is it just about the age and tread left? Not that I am looking to sell the car any time soon, Ive only just taken ownership - but eventually I may want to sell.
And before you say it:
1. I have looked at other comments on this forum.
2. I have looked on other forums
3. I have watched a few videos on you tube
But none of these really cater for my specific car, or my style of driving, and also many comments are out of date, as new tyres have become available.
The choice seems to be replacing what I have ie Pirelli P Zeros - or swapping over to Michelin PS4S N rated - which currently appears to be the popular choice - but is it the right choice now?. (or is there something else you would recommend?)
And are there later N numbers of each to go for (eg N2)?
I did look on the Kwik Fit site which implied the Pirelli have better wet grip than Michelin - which seems different to some user experiences?
Any thoughts from anyone who has tried these on their 991s - much appreciated.
