How am I expected to reply seriously after all that banter............

Drove a 997 T in Kendal and that was shod with Michelins which I thought were quieter tbh. Grip seemed to be pretty equal but maybe the Pirellis grip slightly more once warmed up - hard to tell. Pirellis I've had in the past were always a bit skitterish in the wet but lasted well although they were a totally different tread pattern and tyre make up. The PZero's seem very good in the wet. Not sure about wear rate though.

Thank you gentlemen for all your kind comments. Apart from Calvin
