A few months after owning my 2018 SEL-P I wound up replacing all four tires. It shipped with Continentals and I replaced them with Pirellis, the difference in road noise was like upgrading an entire class of vehicle. It's not funny how loud the Conties were and how much quieter the Pirelli are at the same size/wheel/etc.
I've got the Pirelli P7 (P Zero doesn't come in my size) and it's been pretty great. Amazing wet grip, really helps in the Pac NW. No issues with cooler temps, although they're just okay on snow and ice. Can't speak to treadwear yet, they're still pretty new.
Those Pirellis consistently test among the best UHP tires money can buy. Expect around 30% longer tread life than the Firestones, however, even the latter should last at least 50k km.
I live in Worcester and work in Boston, I get no days off (state nursing supervisor)... I\u2019ve been running Sottozero 3\u2019s since I bought the car and they haven\u2019t dusappointed me. I\u2019ve even hit a couple unavoidable bridge expansion joint craters on 9/128/pike and they\u2019ve held up. I guess I\u2019ve been lucky! Worcester is notorious for hills, lots of snow, and poor plowing by the DPW and I feel as confident as I did running Hakkas on my prior TDI Golf.
The PA4's shine on dry cold roads, i had their Pirelli equivalent (Sottozero 3s) and while not amazing in deep snow or standing up to potholes, when its clear cold roads they had grip for days.
I'm running a set of Pirelli ice zero FR. They're a good all around tire for the cost. Dry performance is good and they ride quiet much like the Michelin X-ice.
I did just put these tires on my wife's 2016 jetta sport. They have 3k miles on them already in the past month and they are great. Quiet on the highway (though when you hit expansion joints it's kinda loud) ride good and handling/traction for wet, dry and the little bit of snow we got was pretty impressive too for an all season tire.
I'm assuming they are the all season PZero Nero (not sure if they made a summer tire) They are "okay" tires. not great in the wet or snow, and I always end up being concerned about what they are going to do in a corner.
I have the same tires on our 12. Car currently has just shy of 40k miles, I took the car out to see how it would perform in some snow we had gotten. The tires were rock solid and almost caused me to crash twice. Once I was doing less than 5mph slowly applied brakes on a very slight incline and just slid, not on ice but snow. Second was similar getting into a parking lot. Maybe in just spoiled in my S4 with blizzaks, but I'll be replacing these with something different soon
I have those on my Mustang right now and they have no where near the performance of the outgoing P Zeros.
