I normally get about 18k-20k a set out of my Contis, but the last lot (Dunlop SP SportMaxx) were dire... Only got about 13k before they'd gone oval or flat-spotted and made the car sound like all the wheel-bearings had gone. We will see how the P Zeros go. They just eat up wet roads like no other tyre I've tried. They go through standing water like it's not even there. I guess as they are OE for the Audi RS6 and Bentleys and R type Jags they must be quite good. The NCS (Noise Cancelling System) is basically foam rubber glued to the inside of the tyre, but they are very quiet in the cabin. Probably the quietest I've had so far too. YMMV.

I have P Zeros as well. How do I tell if I have Noise Cancelling ?
