PZero's are no better, no worse than the Pilots. PMUM and I ran them on the ACR at OTC 2002 along with about 8 other tire combos. The old Michelin MXX3's were the best trackable street tire as many Viper Days vets will also attest to. The Pirellis took their beatings after their initial chunking but would get pretty goddamn greasy after 3 laps.

If you buy tires based on magazine reports, you aren't doing yourself any favors. Ask folks who have to race on street tires first. Go 305's up front if you can. A Viper with anything less than that will be too pushy for my tastes.
