Anyone tried it yet?

 

yea i have them in the rear wheels. They are basically the best all season performance tire available. Wet and Dry traction is better with these than any other all season. Also Tirerack.com gives them a "Superior" rating in almost every category except snow which is only "good" i believe.

 

Recommendations are from Consumer Reports.

 

i have them on the rear of my car as well, and don't feel like they perform as well as all of the hype, and price indicates. i am switching to either michelin ps2's or bfg kdw2's.

 

bump.....anyone else have feedback on these? I'm considering them myself in 305/25/20 for the rear.

 

Why do you keep showing that old consumer reports, its almost 2 yrs old.

 

i'm sorry...i actually have the rosso, which are their best tires, and i don't feel like they perform all that well. the nero are one step down, and may have even less grip.

 

Just found out that the Nero is currently under production and will not be available for several months.

 

tirerack.com has quite a few reviews from users re: the Nero. Most feedback is very good. Seems that they're not a max performance tire, but the feedback and tests indicate that they're right up there in the Ulta performance group. It's also a quiet tire with very good ride characteristics.
