Alrighty...a while back I asked what the best performing tire for everyday street use for the MINI was... I essentially got that the S-03s and D3s would be the best for performance, and maybe Nero but probably SZ-50 for a comfort/performance compromise.

Unfortunately, the rims I'm looking at are 18x7, and only the Nero seems to come in that size... So my question for you guys is do any of you have experience with the Nero, or have any other suggestions for a 215/35R18 tire that i might wanna consider? For those of you that have upgraded to 18s, what tires are you running? Will a 225 fit on the 7"?? Thanks for the info you guys!

 

C'mon...someone, ANYONE...

 

I have 215....17s....

 

After going to the maufacturers' websites, I've decided that 225s *may* fit, but aren't generally recommended...

For that reason, I've decided to go with either the 215/35ZR18 Pirelli PZero Nero, Yokohama Parada Spec-2 or Toyo TS-1s. I have just a day or two before I have to decide, so I'd LOVE to hear ANY input you guys have on these tires. I'd prefer people who have driven both and can comment on how they compare, but as I've said, all comments are very, very welcome!

 

Bump...
