Tires Pirelli or NANKANG
For wet and dry all year (no snow) it is the Pirelli PZ4 or the Michelin PS4S.
For a car that is not driven a lot I would go for Pirelli SF3. They wear relatively fast but otherwise are great allraound.
We just got a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde all-seasons from Costco for right under $1,000.
Domane SL5 gen3 upgraded to the Pro 51 with the Pirelli P-Zero RS about 6 months ago. Huge improvement from the stock wheel set. The DT Swiss internals for the hubs are amazing.
Cost me AUD$2000 (about USD$1200) for a full set of Pirelli Scorpions last year - same tires it had from the factory.
I have 18's they were $239 CDN each for Pirelli P Zeros 235/50/R18 that was 18 months ago
The Nankang NS20 wears well on track and has oK grip, but in the past I've found it to have a somewhat tricky balance around the limit. GReat for learning how to drive, but again it's not the best tyre in the wet so on the road it might not be ideal.
I've had these for four summer seasons on my GSW (17" version) and about 15k miles total. Very grippy. They were great until this past summer, and generally quiet, but one developed a defect whereby it's making a loud rhythmic thumping noise at low speed.
I am sure Pirelli makes plenty of good tires but I was shocked how terrible the OEM P Zero summer tires were that came on my 2016 mustang. Equivalent summer tires from both Michelin and Continental were quieter, had better grip when hot, had better grip when cold, and performed better in the rain.
Just driven for first time in rain with my new P Zeros on and googling if anyone else finds them shocking in the wet. Seem good in dry but absolutely shocking in wet, thought diesel had been spilt on roundabout at first, but then realised same on any other roundabouts.
