I see Perelli P zero on a lot of Boxsters. Is this the go to tire for all round use?
Tire selection will make a huge difference in your ride comfort. Tires are the cushion between the road & your car. 17" wheels & tires selected for comfort will transform a Boxster. I would not consider Pirelli's, usually overpriced for what you get. Go to tirerack.com & read ratings for ride comfort.
