Careful on these, my installer told me the asimetricos have not been produced in a few years, so the tires may not be totally fresh. I bought a set from ebay.. sure enough they were dated 2004 or so.

Thanks for the information, is your set performing well? I currently have Rosso's, but I wanted to try something a little softer. I've read that Pirelli's are sometimes out of round?

Yeah, I really like them. I went a size smaller on my fronts with the asimetricos than I had with the previous Rosso's and the ride is still softer with the smaller asimetricos. The Rossos were not too worn down. I cannot yet comment on grip, only had two good drives with them.

I have never had an issue with round- 3 pirelli p-zero sets on 2 porsches
