I am hoping that Tirerack.com gets some stock of PS3's in the next 3 months.
If not, I'll have to wait till next year.

Actually I will be interested to hear what you think about these tyre's. I have just swapped mine around and have the S Drives on the front of the VR6 now. They are amazing, but I have driven on those Pirelli's P Zero's that is, and found they were amazing. Im about to buy an Alfa Romeo 147 GTA, so pending your report, might be a set of PS3's on there.

You'll hear as review much sooner that I expected.
Thanks to an idea from Swallowtail I ordered some PS3's from Bobjane @ $250 a corner. At that price it's a 1k saving from what I pay when I order PS2's from the US!!

I hope that they are at least as good as the PS2's, otherwise they'll end up in the shed with the dunlops and goodyears.
