i've had both P zero's Rossos and Neros, both shit tyres in my opinion (but ok in the wet). They scream when pushed in the hot weather, plus the sidewalls are so thin and weak you'll think your driving a boat, (unless you like that...) Neros were a bit better but i don't like how the tread footprint taipers of towards the sidewall, reminds me of bridgstone turanzas. Potenzas are the go. BTW where did u get ur honeycomb grill?

Noted.. ill steer clear of the pzeros then... thanks for the tip!

I bought the honeycomb grill off a member.. they come up from time to time. I saw one up for sale about a week ago, not sure if its still there. Ill have a look for you.

What year model is your gen 4? They only fit post face lifts i think.
