I must say Chris that usually I like to have Avons, but due to a great price I selected this time to have these Pirelli's.  So far I have found them very good, giving me great handling, although I must admit suddenly I can so easily spin the rear wheels well when accelerating from a junction without trying!! ::) ::) ::) :D :D ;)

They seem very cheap. But I think I am being stupid because I cannot find Kumho in 225/55/16  :(
