    I have been selling and using Pirelli tires for over 20 years and have never had any problems with them. The touring tires are very quiet and you can plan on getting plenty of good use. I've used P400, P6, P Zero Nero and would not hesitate to recommend them

    Pirellis are an Italian brand, one of the best performance brands in the world. Standard equipment on many Italian exotic super cars. (Ferrari etc.) They are a premium brand, they make a tire for many different applications including excellent motorcycle tires.

    the first couple people to answer this question have no idea what they are talking about and shouldnt answer questions about cars if they think pirelli's are not very popular. these tires are arguably some of the best street tires you can buy for preformance cars. i would recomend them, i have pirelli on my M3.

    Pirelli's are made in South America, I believe in Argentina. They aren't that popular but have been around for a long time. My son put a set on an old Mustang close to 30 years ago and seemed pleased with them.

    Pirelli was also popular on Italian sportscars, and they're seeing a comeback with their more low-profile design (many fords have them, becoming more popular among "tuners" too).

    They are performance tires used mostly on european style cars and also known for motorcycle racing. Low profile and very expensive tires.

    they're decent. go to a local tire store and see what's recommended and on sale. get an all-weather tire.
