The tires performed horribly in dry and wet, and didn't last too many miles. They were fairly loud too, and didn't get points in the ride category.
Oh, and for the analogy, a Z24 Cavalier is actually a fairly quick car with a 5 speed...along with the 2.2 ecotec 5 speeds. Fairly quick for the class.

No, it's still stupid.
Michelin put a lot of really crappy tires on Integras and Civics for years and years, that doesn't change the fact that the Pilot Sport PS2 is still an amazing tire.
You had one model of Pirelli tire which you haven't even mentioned the name of, and are using that experience to knock Pirelli's absolute top of the line tire.
That's retarded.
