I currently have Pirelli eufori@s and they are almost bald. Anyone recommend a less expensive tire similar to it?

Ivan,

How many miles? how many times did you rotate, and at what distances (i.e. at 5k, 11k, etc.)? I've got 'em too and I'd like a idea of tread life.

Alex - What's the advantages and disadvantages of run flats? I do want to be safer on the road, but I am on a budget.

MGCMAN - I bought my wheels used from another owner who used it for AutoXing. I've only had them since May and I have no idea on how long the previous owner had them for, sorry.

Anyone satisfied with their Pzeros?
