Love the Pirelli Eufori@ Tires

Replaced the OEM Dunlops with the Pirelli's and man road news was REDUCED SIGNIFICANTLY. Can't comment on anything else but this first impression was very much worth it!

I noticed the noise/ride improvement right away when I picked up my car but now I don't notice anything 'cause I'm used to it.

I like my 18" Perelli Zeros, they're 100% better than the standard Bridgestones and the car doesn't wiggle all over the place when driving on grooved pavement!

Some of these tire names are quite ridiculous. Made-up words by marketing dept's. Just a quick check of the Tire Rack website can leave your head spinning...

For example - - Which tire would you choose? - the Turanza EL41 or Turanza EL42? Or the EL42 plus? EL42RFT? What about the EL400? Or the EL400-002?

Then there's the Optimo H418, H725, H725A, H406, H411, H417, H420, H426... and what about the Ventus V12EVO K110, or the Ventus V4 ES H105?



I have a headache.
