RE: How Do You Like the Pirelli's?

I found they ride real well in wet weather. That is one thing I really enjoy about the New Mustang.

The rearend does not come around to the side of you in wet weather. Very firm, unlike my '86 Capri that is all over the road in rain.....

Later,

Tires went to ebay a week after I got the car. Didn't care for the footprint.

Troden, what tires are you running on now?

Dang it [:@]... now I'll have to drive it in the rain. I had all these plans of keeping it in the garage on rainy days.
Safety-wise, I'm sure I'd be MUCH better off in the 'Stang then the Nissa p/u but these idiots in Huntsville don't drive any
differently between dry/sunny days and torrential downpours... So, I guess I was willing to sacrifice myself to save my 'Stang.
How noble. [:-]

RE: How Do You Like the Pirelli's?

Thanks for the responses. At this point I'll be glad if my 06 is delivered with the Pirelli's in September. I know there are all sorts of other choices for when they wear out and will explore those when the time comes.
