Thoughts on tyre choices - 570GT

[PurpleFox]

Apologies as I expect this has come up may times before, I searched but couldn't find anything recent / specific to 570gt.


My current tyres will be end of life soon, they are the Mclaren (stamped MC) Pirelli P Zero with the PNCS. All road use.

What are peoples thoughts on the MC rating - is it necessary? I have no warranty to satisfy. I can find the rears for £350 ish with MC rating or £260 ish for the same tyre without the MC rating. I would get a matching set of 4.

Then there is the Michelin PS to consider which seem to be better for road use from what I can understand.....any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the feedback. Seems like the Michelin is the most popular choice.......I would be happy to sacrifice a bit of track performance for better on road and wet weather grip.

Continentals worth a look too especially based on price quoted above....

The Pirellis do seem to show a lower decibel rating, possibly due to the PNCS (foam inserts)? This does appeal to me being a GT and used for longer road trips......however, in the real world I expect that the difference is probably negligible.

I found the Michelin to be quieter than the PZeros.

Good to know, thanks.
