I have P-Zero Nero on a 9000 Aero (205-55-16) and a 9-5 Aero (225-45-17).
The P-Zero Nero is quite different from the P-Zero Rosso I was told. I have no experience with the Rosso and I believe Saab used the Rosso on the 9-5 Aeros in some model years.
I like the Nero on the 9000. They are nice all around tires, even reasonable in light snow when new. They don't wear that well, think 15,000 to 20,000 or so miles on them if you rotate often. I do like the non-directional tread design so I can swap tires side to side to even out wear. Yes, I read all about you're not supposed to change tire rotational direction etc.. but I have been cross rotating modern day radial tires with no ill effect.
I'm not too sure about the Nero on the 9-5. I think they are a bit more noisy than I like but I think it's more to do with the sound insulation on the 9-5 than the tires. I have winter tires (Vredestein 205-55-16) for the 9-5 so I don't know how the Nero perform in snow for the 9-5 in 225-45-17.
I don't know what car or tire size you're looking at, hope my limited experience would help.
