Picked up a set of Pirelli PZero RFTs from Tire Rack on sale for $440 ($520 - $80 MIR) + $50 shipping.

To get the rebate, you must purchase by 11:59PM on September 30th (tomorrow)

I opted for the RFT route since the wife uses the car more than I do and to avoid the inconveniences of housing a spare and using the slime stuff. At this price, I think it's a good deal! Also, we're getting them installed at our local MINI dealer for $25 a piece.

They're still on sale. What did you think about the P Zero ride quality? Especially the ride comfort as compared to other RFTs? For example, how do the P Zeros compare to the stock Conti SSRs (that ride like concrete), or the Bridgestone RE960AS pole position RFTs?

maybe a little late for you guys, but i've had the p-zero rft on for about a year now (didn't get them for quite as cheap as this), i've had the euforia and previously the dunlops.

ride-wise they all suck just as bad , i think the performance of the dunlops were the best but that was nearly 7 years ago that i took those off so it could be good memories. for this price i think the p-zero rft are a good buy if you want run flats, general every day performance has been fine, nothing hairy in the rain, we didn't get much snow this year so no good report on that.
