I just installed the P7 Cinturato on mine a few days ago (235 45 18). They ride nice and handled the rain well. I had Continental PureContact w/Eco Plus for the last 40k. Those were excellent and still had 4/32 - 5/32.
I run the continental DW on my RC's and all I gotta say is I love them. It has a nice ride and they stick like no other!
They've offered just as much snow/ice traction as the Blizzaks that I had previously used but it's the wet and dry weather traction where the Pirellis really shine and that's really important to me since the roads are mainly dry in the winter unless you venture up to the mountains.
I believe those were what I had on a Mustang GT. I know they were Pirelli P Zeros but can't remember any more specifics. They were great tires. Had 30k miles on them when I traded in the car and they still had quite a bit of life left.
My 2010 Golf TDI came from Germany with Continental tires and they were great in the rain.
I have been running the P7AS Plus for over 20k and they are still smooth, quiet and excellent handling. Zero complaints with these tires.

I had P7s(17\") installed on my 2013 SEL 4 weeks ago and the difference with the crappy Hankooks is night and day...quieter,braking and handling are transformed.
I rotate tires every 5k to keep even wear and am no longer a fan of Toyos ... Anyway, I'm hard on my car (ie: drive it like you stole it) and even with a track day under my belt, I'm doing better than 8-10k miles on my set of Contis although don't get more than 2 seasons out of summers (approx. 15k miles).
My stock contis didn't last 20k miles which blows in my book and braking was not good. I'll probably fork out for Michelin mxm4 and be set for a few years.
