New Viggen tires - Pzero Nero on the way

I just ordered up a set of Pirelli Pzero Neros from the Tirerack, my second tire purchase from them. I must say that I continue to be impressed with them all the way around. $136 a tire and $41 for fedex 3 day shipping.
My initial preference was to keep one of the local stores in business by ordering with them. I called NTB and they claimed to match Tirerack prices, but wanted $15 extra *per tire*. That didn't seem like much of a price match to me. Plus, they couldn't even find "Pzero Nero" in their system and would have needed 5 days to get them from Pirelli direct.
I then phoned Town Fair Tire, who also claims to match Tirerack prices. They do, although they will charge you for the Tirerack shipping costs, which in and of itself isn't so awful. However, they too couldn't find "Pzero Nero" in their system, and were in the same boat as NTB.
Tirerack had it all figured out and had them in stock. Not only that, but I upsized to 225/45/17 and a guy called within minutes of my online order just to confirm the size. First class effort.
I've already run the Bridgestone S-02 Pole Positions and put almost 30,000 miles on them. The Pzero Nero has a freakin' awesome tread pattern, costs less than the new S-03s, and incidentally beat both the S-03s and the Michelin Pilot Sport in a well documented Tirerack test. Not only this, but the Pirellis have a treadwear rating of 400 in my size. Wow.
Big 'ups' to Tirerack, looking forward to the new shoes.
