I was looking for an alternative for the upcoming cold winter season in Seoul, Korea for my Audi R8 V8. OEM is the Pirelli P-Zero, but as we all know P-zero is not the best wet/cold grip tire for winter. I drive this car as my daily commuter. My tire shop suggested S001 as an alterative. At first 500km, the tire felt a bit slippery. But after the burn out period, it has a great wet grip. I can not say it has better dry grip than P-Zero, but so far so good. I will say more when the snow falls from the sky.

Early days with the Potenza S001's on the rear but so far, so good. Chose these to replace Potenza REO50's (but still kept the 50's on the front) and I'm impressed. Good feedback, grip etc but expensive at around ?160 each. Will be taking them for a week in the Dales next week so will see how they fair under more demanding drives.
