Subject: Re: 9-3 Pirelli tyres


The P6000s on my 95 Nissan Maxima had 30k mi on them when I sold the car and still had plenty of life left in them. On FWD cars particularly, you must keep them rotated. I do it every 5-7.5k mi or so, plus regularly check air pressures. It's almost time to replace the tires on my 99 9-3 with the 205/50-16 Michelin Pilots. I liked the P6000s from before. Other than tire wear, how did you like the P6000s? What size do/did you have? How about quietness and ride quality?
