Has anyone replaced their Pirelli P Zero Rossos w/ the P Zero Nero ...

My OE Rossos on my 2004 CLK 500 Coupe are almost dead at 12k miles, the dealer said I have 1000 left in the rears, which are almost down to the wear bars in the center, while the fronts have 3000 miles left. I want to replace the Rossos with the Neros which have a 400 treadwear rating. Are these tires any good. I was also considering the Bridgestone 750's which a couple of people on tirerack posted that they got about 30k miles on their BMW 540i 6 Speeds.

Thanks

Check out the Tire Rack reviews and I think you'll be pleased with the P-Neros. Nice wear, great wet weather traction and "under" priced compared to Michelin.

Going with the Neros, Tirerack said PS2's get 12k on S. FL rds, but Neros get 30k.

I cannot justify buying a new set of tires every 12k miles like with the Rossos. Hopefully the performance of the Neros will not be too far off from the Rossos.

Nero M/S

The Neros M/S were the ones I was talking about.
