Tires Pirelli or Maxxis
The closest you'd get is a set of Pirelli slicks for track/race use, or P-Zero Trofeo if you wanted something road legal.
Although [Pirelli P-Zeros](https://www.pirelli.com/tyres/en-ww/car/find-your-tyres/products-sheet/p-zero#/overview) are a pretty amazing street tyre that come on a lot of new high performance cars
I'm running the stock Pirelli P7's that came OE on the car. Currently have 7100 miles. Pressure set to recommended 37 Psi. Tires are quiet and smooth around town and on most roads. Quiet at HWY speeds as well, except on concrete where they seem to drone a bit. No perceived harshness (to me) on nearly all surfaces.
I had the Nero Zeros on mine and went 40K just fine. Only at the last 10K did I start driving around with more racing and sliding etc and the tires got bald super fast lol for a daily they will be fine.
I'm on the Cinturatos and although they are a marginal tire the car is rock solid on the freeway.
Went with the P4 four seasons plus. the tires are night and day better than what was on there. Ride is smoother, much quieter, better wet traction.
I put Cinturato P7 All Season Plus's on my mother's Tiguan and overall these seem very good. They are noticeably quieter than my Michelins on coarse roads. Performance is good, but they seem to be wearing a little quicker than anticipated
I thought the Pirellis were smoother and quieter than the Dunlops (all new cars here), but now that I am reading about how bad they become, maybe I am better off with the Dunlops
I have Pirelli P4's... I love the tread warranty - expecting that I'll get 9,000 miles out of them. But I find that I'm losing traction more often than I'd like when I accelerate, and make turns.
Similar story: a lovely pothole seemingly gave me a flat (felt really jarring) on one of my Pirelli Sottozero 3s. Was flat within 10 minutes...Turns out the pothole actually cracked the rim (which caused the flat) and then the short time I drove on it mostly flat, had ruined the sidewall on the tire as well.
