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.

And it works so well.

I just can't figure out why there's so many cars with BC plates in the parking lots of WA clinics & hospitals.

Just because they don't write a check at the doctor's office, doesn't mean their health care is free or cheap! Just ask a Canadian about their taxes...
