Pirelli PZero Nero M&S

I'm replacing my tires on my 2k Max Se. I was thinking about going with the Pirelli PZero Nero M&S , size 225/45WR17, just curious if anyone uses these and what they think of them or any other tire suggestions

I have a freind who had these on his car but thought it was a bit sluggish around turns. I personally love my toyo proxies 4. My decision was between the pzero or the proxies.

Between the OEM Potenza's, Sumitomo HTR+ and the M+S which i've had on my Max for good periods of time - the M+S blows the other two away in terms of performance and most especially in ride comfort, quality and in the minimal amount of noise.

The HTR+ gets reviews that it's pretty silent, but as the miles rack up it tends to get a lot noisier and ride rougher.

Isn't 235/45/17 the closest to stock diameter? That's what I have on my car, in Yokohoma AVS ES100s. They were on the car when I got it a few months ago and soon I will have to replace them.

I have been running on PZero M&S's for about five months now in 235/40 R18. Overall I would say that they are very good tires. The ride nice, and are quiet down the highway. I recently was able to test them in the snow, granted they are not a snow tire, but they seemed to do very good for a high performance tire. One dislike I have about the tires is the lack of a wheel lip guard. Every time I have to pull next to a curb, I can just imagine the wheels getting a bad case of road rash. Aside from this minor issue; I have been very impressed with those tires.
