My old thread resurrected... :) I'm the OP... I ended up sticking with the OEM PZeros N3s.

I"ve had them for almost a year and they still look great...of course I"ve only put about 3-4k miles on the car... :) they stick like glue. I love these tires.

I have the michelin pilot sports and well they seem a little loud but I stick to the road like white on rice. Keeps a grin on my face.

I also have the p-zeros and I like them, I've driven Boxsters w/ contis, michs, eagles, yokos and even firehawks. Each in their way were good tires, but I can honestly say I didn't experience one which 'transformed' the car and each of the tires mentioned had at least one shortcoming - excess noise, excess grip, excess wear, excess slip.

Tires are a lot like motor oil, everyone has their favs and then there's price v performance v wear. One thing's for sure... the debate is endless.
