Pipper6speed is infamous around these parts
Where do you get 3 sets (12 tires) of Pzeros for $1K?

I should note that one owner switched tires to non-OEM spec and began to have gearbox problems. They voided his warranty because of it I think. He said he was having gearbox problems and errors, and only when he switched back the the M1 designated MP4 specific tires did the issues clear up. You'll have to look into it a bit more, but it is possible that using non-OEM spec stuff could wreak havoc on the car. As cars become designed and tuned to work with increasingly advanced electronics and very specific components, it wouldn't be completely out of the realm of possibility that stuff stops working correctly with other components like brakes, wheels, tires, etc.
