Pirelli P Zero Rosso
or
Yokohama V103 ADVAN SPORT
For my M3, im getting tyres in the deal & thats the options.
Is there any pro's/con's of one over the other?
Cant get Michelin pilot sports or conti SP's like id have wanted.

Pilot Sport 2's, Conti 2's or Dunlop SP9000's If you end up changing them Colin, get some 265/30s on the back too.

I'd go for Pirelli P Zero. Had them on my Corsa after i spun it doing silly speeds on budgets. Seemed pretty good but never kept the car long enough to find out how they wear. Gripped nice enough though.
All depends on how you drive really. I used to drive to Corsa hard but after almost killing myself sold it on Now i get 40k up front on a set of decent tyres as i grandad drive.
