I used the Pirellis in 235/35 19, 295/30 19 on my previous C4S.

On my Turbo, I am using NOKIAN in the same size.

The Nokians and Pirellis are about the same....no real difference.

I did have balancing issues with the Pirellis, and the Nokians seem to be slightly better in the snow and quieter.

I've had really good experience with Dunlop Wintersport M3 and 3D on my sports cars... Not cheap, but well worth it imo.
