So, I guess I can't necessarily fault Pirelli, but still..... one would think that their "Ultra High Performance" tire should hold up better than that.

I'm replacing them with a set of Bridgestone Potenza S-02's. Let's see how that works out.

I find more myths about tires than any other part of a vehicle. Most of them are detrimental to safety.
