I don't think you can find them in the states yet. They show them in the Porsche mag but I've been unable to find them...let me know if you find them

Imported P-Zero Corsa

There are several importers that will ship them to you (delivered price). There are still some sizes available for the older P-Zero Cs in the US. However comparing the price of the P-Zero Corsa, Pilot Sport Cup and Kumho V700 ECSTA (all r-compound tires) but with grooves in 6/32th inches (streetable), I just see no reason to spend the money on the Pirelli or the Michelin (well maybe for bragging rights). The Kumhos at slightly half the price of the Michelin is just a no brainer.

Pirelli advertised them in last months RACER....with contact info for Pirelli USA....they don't appear on their website...I haven't called them yet because I really don't need them yet...just thinking ahead...I am planning on a second set of rubber for the 55 for on track fun.

Stock tires appear to be the Rossa...I am looking for something to track that I can also legally drive to the track on. Maybe Kumho's are the way to go? I could care less about the name...I am only concerned with grip...but also a tire that won't wear down too much in a 100miles each way to the track.
