One of leading Russian car magazines AuroReview did recently a similar test of high performance tires with very similar results:

1st - Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2
2nd - Dunlop Sport Maxx RT
3rd - Continental ContiSportContact 5

Pirelli P Zero did not participate but Pirelli P Zero Rosso was 6th out of 9 contenders.

I will go for Dunlops - consistently among leaders in tests and weight less than anything: 8.4 kg for 225/40R17 - compare with 11kg for the same Pirelli P Zero Rosso or 11.3kg for Bridgestone Potenza. It should feel like 10 extra hp thanks to 10kg less rotating mass!
