No, for the coloured sidewalls you need the P Zero coloured edition. The P Zero Silver is a harder compound tyre for more miles.

I bought these as they were a great price. I was surprised that they rubbed the arches and the tyre fitter turned the air blue due to the tightness of the fit. Not as good as my previous Vredesteins for clearance under the rear arches and I will wait for the wear results after a few more miles. Good if you can get them cheap but watch for the arch clearance. There is quite a large protruding side wall which is good for alloy protection.

I bought these to replace the original P zero on my 2013 Audi RS4. I was hoping for the same level of feel and grip but with more wear. Well I got a lot more wear but the grip levels and progressiveness are not really upto the job of giving confidence when giving the car some welly on back roads.

I have just changed all 4 for another brand. The rears had about 5mm left after 14,000miles, the fronts about 3mm. The RS4 is AWD.

These are fine if you are mainly on a motorway, otherwise be prepared for wheelspin...

Dry grip on these tyres has been very good, even with the temperatures down below 10 degrees celcius. Wet grip has also been quite impressive, and the tyres seem to handle reasonable amounts of standing water quite easily.

The tyres in thise size are quite noisy, especially when the road is wet. On the plus side, the car doesn't crash into potholes as it did on the previous GT Radial Champiro tyres, so that is a definate improvement.

The tyres have coped with the recent snowy conditions in the UK. While I have avoided any deep snow, the car has not gotten stuck in snow up to 5cm deep. It is a 4wd car with quite a bit of weight to push the tyres onto the surface, but these tyres certainly seem no worse than any other high performance summer tyre.

The tyres have only been on the car for a few thousand miles, but they still seem to have the full amount of tread.

From my experience with these tyres so far, I can recommend them to others.
