[DeTomaso] Tires

Pirelli doesn't make rears for Pantera's with 10" Campys, nor does anyone
else. If they did, I'd buy all four right now and be very happy. The only
reason I'm hesitant to fork over the $300 per Pirelli front is because I'm
stuck with the crappy rears.

I would buy the Kumhos and wait on the P-Zeros when I wanted a full set.

Michael,
No track time, just driving the car for fun. I get spirited with

started
shaking and pulling pretty hard. When I pulled the side it was
pulling
to off, you could easily see the circumference of the outer side
of the
tire was larger than the inside corner. It made a distinct left

I have used Pirelli, Kumho and Falken, no real complaints with any
of
them for basic driving,
how will they be used?
I have both Pirelli P-Zeros (335/35/17) on one set of wheels on the
car
now and use the other set of Kumho's (315/35/17) for road trips like
Tail of the Dragon, I feel they are more sticky on those roads.

All,
I need new front tires--225/50-15s to mount on my 8" Campys.
Here are
my choices:
Pirelli P Zero System (the best, most expensive)
Kumho Ecsta AST (cheap, don't know anything about them)
Falken Ziex ZE-912 (same as the Kumho)
Maxxis MA-Z4S (same as the Kumho and Falken)
Anyone have any experience with the last three? The Pirelli is
a
sure
bet, but three times as expensive.
