My SPG runs on Pirelli P-7000 in summer. NOT the allseason but the real summer tire. Absolutely great traction, wet or dry, and a noticable inprovement over the P-6000, which are good tires and a bit less money. These are 205-55-15s, running at about 38 psi. (P-6000 were the same size, which seems a perfect fittment to me, although I concede the rim's a little narrow.) (Winters, I run Pirelli P-210 performance in 195-60-15.)
The P-7000 seems to be a wonderful tire. I'd buy another set. And I'll probably have to; they are too soft to last forever, which is why they stick so well. Now if this damned ice and snow would just go away so I can use the summer tires again....
