Been offered the option of these tyres at a very good price as the dealer owes me a BIG favour.I dont know much about these tyres only that the P7000 is cheaper than the P zero nero.
What would you guys advise?
Seen the tread pattern and prefer the look of the P7000 but what are they like on a scoob?
Any comments on either tyre would be very welcome.

Thanx in advance

As youve read maybe below, ive had them 4 about a year (P7000's) & i have to say grip wise they are very good apart from this tramlining effect that on an unevenish surface is quite strong,ive done about 5,000 miles on them & theres prob about 1.5mm left b4 they will require changing, also ive dropped the size down from orig 205/50r16 to a 205/45r16 which i think isnt helping my speedo accuracy!!! hope this helps

thanx 4 the reply m8

been doin a search in scoobynet archives and have read contrasting reports with some saying they're brill and some saying they're **** !!!!

reports on the P Zero Nero all seem to say they have a very hard side wall which helps handling at the cost of braking?

So far im leaning towards the P7000 as with a 35 profile a very stiff wall is gonna give me a very harsh ride.

Just need to know that the P7000 can cope in the rain????

No one mentions what the P7000 is like in our british winter weather!

Thanx
