I don't quite understand your question, but the tyres on the Interlagos wheels are Pirelli P Zeros. Monzas get Bridgestone Potenzas, Continental SportContacts or, if you're lucky, Michelin Pilot Sports.

P Zero whats?  Rossos, Neros? :huh:

I don't think Pilot Sports were ever factory fitted - they were Pilot Exaltos, which is one step below the Sports. :nerd:

And if you are unlucky, you'll get the Dunflop ShyteMaxx  :sick:

Oi TT, don't start about the Dunlops again!  :wink:

Is that what you got then?  :undecided:

Yes, remember we had a big to and fro about them!  :wink:

Oh, righty (my short-term memory is w@nk).  So how are you finding them?

We had quite a heated debate about them, your memory must be super w@nk! I like them just fine! :wink:

T_T has a lot of knowledge but seems to think he knows even more than he does. I'm quite sure he's never tested all these tyres himself.

Wow, deja vu! We already had this 'discussion' on another thread.  TT doesn't like the Dunlops (like a lot of other people it seems too) but for me on my remapped MK6 they feel just fine.

Let's not start slating peeps because of their opinion or we'll be here all day...

Yes, I know.  But as I quite legitimately explained, I sometimes have a pretty useless STM. :embarassed:  I CBA to explain why! :rolleyes:

It isn't other peeps 'opinions' which I have a prob with (hence why I asked the question a few posts earlier with a smilie at the end). :rolleyes:  But when some tw@t makes personal accusations of what I have, or have not done :shocked: - then I think I'm perfectly justified to slate said person.  And this is NOT directed at you, Gossa.  :smiley:
