Tires-Continental ContiExtremeContact or Pirelli Pzero Nero M+S

Hey everyone just wondered if any of you have used this all season tire and what you thought of it. It was a tossup between this or the Pirelli Pzero Nero M+S. Let me know what you think. They are for 18 x 8 not that it makes a difference.

I've had the Pirelli PZero M&S for a brief time before my car was totalled. It feels a bit 'soft' especially if you are used to riding on summer tires. I had it mounted on 18x8.5 wheels. It is extremely quiet and performs nicely overall. The ContiExtreme cost much less, I've had friends who were disappointed with the ContiExtreme (mounted on stock wheels of Mitsubishi Evo8). Some have experienced bubble blister from daily driving in and around NYC (pothole capital).

You're in Boston, where crazy construction is ongoing around the city. I'd say with the M&S. Don't expect to be able to drive around in 4+inches of snow with your 18s unless you get Blizzaks, but if snow starts falling on the ground, you'll be able to get around in the M&S fairly well.
