Got these after my conti premium contact 2's. They were huge drop in wet weather performance. comfort, noise, dry and other straight line stuff is still ok, but i found the tyres alarming in the wet. Particularly with wet braking. Wet cornering is still ok, aquaplaning abilities ok. but wet braking NO! On a good note... if youre a cautious driver. This hard compound tyre will last you a bit. Right about this time last year my CPC2's got too thin. The P6's are still humming along with decent tread depth. BTW this is a review of Italian made P6's

The Diamante is a 3L V6 driving the front wheels, it needs a tyre to bite the road a little to deliver the power even if accelerating modestly. The P6 did the job well and lasted well too with 70,000km on the tyre before replacement. I agree with one other reviewer that while the grip was good for 80% of the life of the tyre as you head close towards the minium tread depth, the grip began to weaken. Ok if you are careful but a definite loss in performance.

A very hard tyre, it looks like it will last for a while as at 15000 miles in they seem to be in good condition but you get a lot of road noise and not that much wet grip. Very average. Will try some goodyear GSD3s next.

I bought a full set of these tyres for a resonable price, I found them to be an instant trasformation on the handling and fell of the car, I found the road noise reduction to be incredible too. Alot of happy miles with these tyres and fantastic grip in the dry and wet, although I would say when below a few mm left on the tyre the performance does drop in both dry and wet conditions, I will be purchasing 2 new pirelli p6's in the very near future.
