Default Anybody running Pirelli Pzeros?

Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S, I want to know if they are directional or can you swap them from side to side without taking them off the rims? Thanks.

Also, if anybody is running a 215/40/17 tire or a 215/45/17 tire with a 1" drop, do you have any rubbing? Could you post a picture of the sidewall? Thanks.

I don't beleive they are. They aren't listed as such on Pirelli's website, and the tires that are directional are listed as such.

Thanks. I'm looking into getting me a set of these in the near future but wanted to find out first. I have directional tires on now and I'm kind of glad they wore out before I should have changed them because I didn't want to spend more money on taking them off the rims then putting them back on.

They have an inner and an outer side.

btw, love the Pirellis, such an improvement over the stock tires (wheels helped too).

Judging by this picture from Tirerack.com, I say no. I see no directional arrow anywhere on that sidewal.

I had them on my IS300.....they were rotated by the guys in the shop like any other car. I asked specifically. I am no expert, but I got more than 40k off a set of them and the same shop rotated them each time. Therefore, I would say they are not directional.

No. Just an outer side.

I have them, but in a 205/50/16.....so that won't help you.

But no, they are not directional.
