265/35 20 Tire Review Highlights

Pirelli P Zero rated 63% while driving a Porsche 718 GTS
Driving on a combination of roads for 7000 spirited miles
Porsche Boxster GTS and Pirelli P Zero tire combination. The car and tires were both new in 2020.
Ride was harsh and noisy, grip in the wet never inspired confidence and felt on tiptoes. In the dry feedback was wodden, slow speed maneuvering on tight lock was grabby and uncomfortable.
In early 2023 I changed all four tires, even though they were only part worn with plentry of tread depth left front and rear (about 7000 miles) to a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S N0. The car was transformed with none of the poor traits of the Pirellis.
I understand that Pirelli have apparently made some improvements to the P Zero since 2020.

Yokohama Advan Neova AD09 rated 87% while driving a Tesla Model 3 Performance
Driving on track for 5000 spirited miles
Bought these tires mainly for track use, but also ended up using them on the road last summer. Extremely good on track, even better in the wet which surprised me. Side wall is ultra stiff but I enjoyed this and rolled over potholes in the UK no problem. Wear was ok, I did 7 track full days in these plus driving round 3 months in the summer. Will be buying again.

Nankang Sportnex AS2 Plus rated 30% while driving a Audi Audi A7 3.0 TDI Quattro
Driving on mostly motorways for 11000 easy going miles
Had these tires for 16 months and covered 11000 miles, as soon as I fitted them there was an immediate increase in road noise, which I got used to, however I believe these tires are defective, as all 4 tires are nearly bald in the centre but still have 5mm on left on the edges. These tires have always been inflated to correct spec as per manufacturer instructions and wheel geometry is perfect. As they started to wear the began to tramline like crazy to the point it was becoming dangerous to drive the car. These tires should have lasted a lot longer than 11000 miles considering 90% of that is motorway commute.

Nankang AS2 rated 94% while driving a Audi A6 Avant 3.0 TDI Quattro
Driving on mostly country roads for 4000 spirited miles
Wet grip -amazing
Dry grip - amazing
Snow - bloody decent
These tires blew my mind, these are now my GO TO tires for my cars.
I live in the Highlands so wanted tires for my A6 daily Quattro diesel that did both very wet and dry. Well, in the wet they are Phenomenal, the car Is like glue on wet bends, hitting puddles etc etc. They ooze reassurance and give you better confidence and safety.
Yes it's a Quattro but, previous pirellis just lost traction in certain situations. I
t handles amazing, never once lost slightest grip and they feel so stable.
In the dry, again phenomenal. They really gel to warm tarmac. Road noise is minimal too!!

And, BONUS was that they performed damn well in heavy thick snow which I was not counting on, they plough through I think partly to the huge channels in the tires stopping the tread compacting with snow but don't use for that reason haha. Highly recommend these they are amazing.

Continental SportContact 7 rated 67% while driving a Audi Q3
Driving on mostly town for 3800 average miles
I bought these ‘Conti 7s’ as they were touted as the new ‘ants pants of tires’ to replace my original from new car tires - Hankooks, which beautifully wore for almost 52,000kms.
Kms now today 19th June - 55,800.
Set of four (4) XL SportContact 7 Continental tires fitted 10th of April = $2380!
In 3,800kms, I’ve had 2 punctured tires and a split beading on another requiring replacement!!
NEVER have I EVER had such crap tires!!
Not cheap at $605 per tire either!
If I could I’d replace them in a heartbeat.
Latest puncture fixed today.
I’m driving no where different to where I have in the life of this car and driving style is no different.
So you know - I’m a female driver in my early 50s.
I love driving and my car, but am now honestly; literally paranoid driving on these Conti 7 tires - If I drive out tomorrow, what are my chances of getting home without ANOTHER puncture!?
Do yourself a favor- DONT waste your money on SportContact 7 Continentals!

Yokohama Advan Sport V107 rated 64% while driving a SEAT Cupra Born
Driving on mostly country roads for 800 average miles
Although it has really good grip, it takes a lot of temperature to get that grip on dry roads.
On the other hand the wet grip is grate even when cold.
In both conditions it is very predictable when up to temperature witch gives a lot of confidence when pushing it on fun back roads.

Unfortunately they degrade very fast, thus far I have been driving them for about 800km and there is only about 3mm of tread depth left from the 7.5mm when new.

Overall it's a fun tire with alot of feedback, but I would not recommend it unless you want to buy new ones every summer.

Nankang AS2 rated 96% while driving a BMW 320d XDrive saloon
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 spirited miles
My first experience of Nankang tires and I have to say I am really pleased. Would normally buy a premium brand but these came on the car and have pleasantly surprised me. If anything the car is “over” tired as not standard rims but wet or dry it is predictable and sure footed even spirited driving through local lanes which I do regularly as well as many motorway miles. I’m replacing like for Like as the price is incredibly good and I need nothing else from my tires.

Pirelli P Zero rated 39% while driving a Porsche 718 GTS
Driving on mostly country roads for 2000 spirited miles
These are the worst "performance tires" I've ever had the misfortune of using. Poor grip in the wet. Enough grip in the dry. Poor feedback and not progressive at the limit.

Nankang Sportnex AS2 Plus rated 43% while driving a Audi A7 3.0TDi Auto
Driving on a combination of roads for 0 average miles
I bought the car with these tires already on it (although have driven the same model with a different brand tire). Due to these being on the car when I purchased it, I cannot say what milage is on them. These have good grip in the dry but aren't good in the went, and despite the 4 wheel drive they like to skid a bit without trying! Road noise is also very noticeable. Won't be buying these!

Dunlop SP Winter Sport 3D rated 0% while driving a Audi RS6 Avant V10
Driving on mostly motorways for 10000 spirited miles
Installed these tires on my Audi RS6 V10 for winter in Germany.
Traction is ok, but the car feels less precise than with my Pirelli summer tires.
A bit noisy.
Main drawback: cornering on the wet. Loosing grip too often for my taste, especially on roundabouts. Will not buy these again.
