Ok I haventbeen on lately. But I have a problem:

Original tires from 2013 when my 14 GTS was built as a show car for Dodge. I changed the fronts about 2-3 years ago. The backs are dated from 2012. They had some tread left but they were cracking a little. I went on EBay and saw some Pzero Corsas thinking I had Pzero Corsas on the front and they were 225 each including shipping! I bought two.

They show up and they are Pzero Corsas Asimmetricos

I went to America’s tire today and had them swapped out. As they were taking the old ones off they completely destroyed them see pics then we put the new ones on and realized the tread pattern is different than my regular pzeros I had on the back.

So please see pic comparison and advise or YELL AT ME: buy new Pzero Corsas Assimmetricos for the fronts or my Pzeros are ok with pzero corsa assimmetricos backs.

I need advice. They are willing to sell me pzero Corsa assimmectrico 295 18s fronts for 350 installed.

I need help. Thank you.

If you're not tracking or doing something stupid on the roads, drive them. If you want to track some, get a second set of rims and buy the R888rs. You will see a night/day difference in grip.

Found interesting info. Front engine cars should only get assimmetrricos on all 4 tires versus direzionale or assimmetrico 2 tires...

P Zero Corsa System radials meet DOT requirements, however they are not recommended for driving in wet conditions where standing water is present and there is the risk of hydroplaning; drivers should drive cautiously at reduced speeds if they encounter these conditions. And like all Streetable Track & Competition tires, P Zero Corsa System radials are not intended to be driven in near-freezing temperatures, through snow or on ice. It's also essential these tires be stored indoors at temperatures maintained above 32 degrees F.

The P Zero Corsa System offers three different competition-type tread designs that include P Zero Corsa Direzionale tires for the front axle (designed to penetrate the water surface and help clear a path for the rear tires) and either P Zero Corsa Asimmetrico or P Zero Corsa Asimmetrico 2 tires for use on the rear axle.

The P Zero Corsa Direzionale tires mold Pirelli's innovative racing tread compound into a semi-slick, V-shaped directional tread design. The tire's internal structure includes ultra-light, flexible belts reinforced by spirally wound nylon and a very stiff sidewall construction resulting in a wide footprint area to enhance dry grip while directional grooves increase hydroplaning resistance.

The P Zero Corsa Asimmetrico tread design features a semi-slick, low void ratio and a large external shoulder structure with a minimum number of grooves to eliminate the blocky structure of a conventional pattern. The P Zero Corsa System Asimmetrico asymmetric and directional tread design requires separate left and right side tires for the vehicle as branded on each tire's sidewall. The tire's internal structure includes highly flexible steel belts reinforced by spirally wound nylon to enhance cornering stability and provide high-speed capability while reducing weight.

The P Zero Corsa Asimmetrico 2 tread design is inspired by Pirelli's P Zero Max Performance Summer tire and features a semi-slick, low void ratio and a large external shoulder structure. The P Zero Corsa System Asimmetrico 2's asymmetric tread design allows it to be used on both left and right sides of the vehicle. The tire's internal structure includes highly flexible steel belts reinforced by spirally wound nylon to enhance cornering stability and provide high-speed capability while reducing weight.

NOTE: While it is recommended that P Zero Corsa Direzionale tires only be used on the front axle positions of mid- and rear-engine cars, P Zero Corsa System Asimmetrico and Asimmetrico 2 tires can also be used on all four wheel positions of track driven cars, as well as front-engine and front-wheel drive cars.
