Default Tyre help

I currently have Pirelli P7000 205/45 ZR16 W+S tyres...they suck...they stay good for like 2 weeks, have bad sidewalls, etc...if someone has this tyres, any similar expiriences (sp)?

The thing is, how about gettin some falken Ziex or Azenis, what do you guys think?whats the price range in the us?

The Azenis are too noisy for me and have a short lifespan (12-15k miles) but are sticky as crap. I did'nt like the Ziexs at all though.

I don't mind my Ziex tires.. I would stay away from Azenis tires, though, if it snows/rains/has wet weather in your area during the winter..

Agreed on the snow thing. Azenis are completly scrary in the snow. I just did'nt like the Ziexs on my car. They were not sticky at all.

I have those pirelli's on my steelies. I'm about to put them back on for winter this Saturday. Sidewalls were fine for me last year when i used them. And i had to use them for spring too.
I love my azenis but can't have them on for winter. It's spose to be sub 30 this friday. We might actually get snow this year in seattle.
