I bought a set for my BMW about 1000 kilometers ago.
They are a real pleasure to drive on all terrains.
I wanted street/racing tires, but this is why I bought Pirelli 6000 instead:

HANDLING/PERFORMANCE:
Great response/feel and grip.

* Excellent all-round tire. Can handle delapitated roads extremely well. The roads where I live are in poor condition...

* Really hugs the corners at high speed.
You definately "feel" the road, as they're quite soft and springy.
Harder tires cause you to sometimes skid/lose control more easily.
So these tires are GREAT for new drivers too!

* Amazing hold in rain, due to a NEW-IMPROVED tire pattern.

* Keeps totally straight and feels perfect on long highways.

* Excellent for driving on normal ~ crappy roads.
Not ideal for racing as they're a little bouncy, but great for driving around the city and thrashing about in the hills where there's lots of deebris like little rocks and pot-holes + slick surfaces like man-hole covers.

COST:
Very reasonable... I paid USD85 for each tire.

* They don't look too stylish... but if you want a reliable and good value tire, then you'll be happy with a set of these.
Since mine are 15" it reads "R15" on the tire.

NOISE:
I do not find them to be noisy at all. Just sweet music to my ears... hehe!

SIZE(S):
Starting from 15 X 7 all the way up...

* It's VERY DIFFICULT to find good tires when you have 15" rims.
All the other good ones start at 17"

LOOKS:
Simple.

* Pirelli has been a trusted (Italian) brand for decades.
Perfect for the shrewed car owner who doesn't need flash but likes to challenge his/her car from time-to-time.
