[s-cars] Pirelli PZero Nero M&S

[Lee Levitt]

Yep. My 95.5 S6 avant came with the FZ4s. They were really 
mediocre in snow. I now run th Proxes 4 on both my cars. In the 
245/40 17 size they're not particularly useful in snow either, but 
they do make a very good 3 season tire. On my wife's A6, in a 
225/50 16 size, they're *okay* in snow, but still, nothing like a 
dedicated snow tire in a narrower size.

The 712s have a pretty stiff sidewall and are much more precise 
than the Toyos. The Kumhos also much harsher riding.
