what is the best tire for the 22" rims

For those who has the Cayenne with 22" wheels.
What tires are you using? and what are your reasons for chosing the tires?

Please advise.

Deetz,

whats the thread count and approximate mileage you got out of them? Also what did u not like about them? road noise? etc.

I am looking at some pro scorpio (?)
don't know if they are really good. They are 399$ a piece.

I've got the 295/30/22 Pirelli Scorpion Zero. I like them so far-- grip is great, low road noise, but I haven't owned them long enough to comment on the treadlife, etc.

They are discounted right now at TireRack $268 ea.

RAJA: I have roughly 2000 or maybe 3000 miles, I can't remember because I took them off for winter last time. It is not very noisy but I'll take different tires next time.
