Default cheapest pirelli pzeros?

275/35r19 (rears)

Quoted at approx $262, plus labor $312. Each tire.

Anyone get it cheaper? I've only had them for 2 yrs and only 12,000 miles. Said they were graded 2+ and 3. Said 2 is failing so I'd be due soon. Kinda sucks cause I only have another 12 months on the lease. I guess I could always buy another brand but wouldn't this affect the leasing agreement? And isnt there a warranty on these tires? I also bought the added tire and wheel insurance, although I don't think it covers wear. But technically if someone stabs a hole in each one they are fully replaced. Figured I'd just pull the trigger and get the pzeros now since I'm gonna need new tires regardless before the end of this lease, so might as well drive around fresher tires until then, right?

Thanks.

That depends on your lease agreement small print. In the UK on some agreements they allow for any Premium brand replacements.

Personally there is no way I would get Pirelli again after reading the way the car is transformed with Michelins.

Give your lease Co a call and check to see if you can fit a different brand just to make sure, then go get some Michelin PSS.

Kumho makes a tire for the f type and would be a lot cheaper.

Definitely get the Michelins. Don't bother with the Pzeros. From a leasing perspective they are an equivalent tire. From a driving, durability and grip perspective they are a hugely superior tire.

I turned in 2 Audi's with Kumho because of lease term and got no comments. They were ok anyway but great price.

looks like the michelins are about $300, without labor, so they are more expensive (in general). I don't slip too much with the pzeros actually. I am assuming if I go AWD with the next lease, they may last longer? who knows.
