Pirelli North America is offering "free" (you pay $25 for shipping) 120/70ZR17 tires to people who buy a new Strada rear in 160, 170, 180 or 190 widths.

Dang, thats a sweet deal. Are they any good? I had a set of their tires on a car one time and they were crap. Do you use them Paul?

I haven't used them, but from what everyone says, they're essentially the same tire as a Metzeler Z6 with a slightly different tread pattern. Pirelli owns Metzeler, so it makes sense. The Z6 & Strada get rave reviews from users, but for some reason the Strada doesn't seem to be as popular - except for when they're running the free tire deal (they did it last year, too).

I just did the Pirelli tire deal, waiting to get mine now. I don't need tires yet, since I have 3K on the stock tires now. However at some point this year, I will need them; so why not try this deal. The funny thing is I was deciding between the Pirelli Strada EMS and Michelin Pilot Roads. Guess I will try the Stradas. The on-line registration was pretty easy to do, and there is a counter on the website indicating how many front tires are left to give away. I will let you guys now when I get the front tire.

Did my online stuff and will mail it tomorrow.
I just bought a set of Pirelli Strada's last nov., but some jack@ss cut my front tire a few weeks back.
I got one of the softer Pirelli's off the rack in my size as a replacement, works great.

So how much is everone paying for your rears. I just got quoted $180 mounted for a 180. Is this good or bad?

Banditboy600 · « **Reply #12 on:** March 16, 2006, 09:27:28 PM »

I paid $135.00 rear shipped. Still have to have it mounted. I just received the front tire on Tues. About two weeks after I mailed in the paperwork.

chupacabra · « **Reply #13 on:** March 17, 2006, 06:49:06 AM »

I payed $112.95 and $20.00 to mount.

Oh...mine is a 160.
