Default GoodYear EMT 2nd Generation

It's time for new tires and I've been waiting for the next generation EMT's:

* What will they be called?
* When will they become available?
* Will they be offered in C5 sizes?
* Will they cost considerably more than the current EMT's?

I've seen a lot of very good reviews for the Pilot Sport ZeroPressures. In fact, these are my next tire. IIRC, tirerack.com has them cheaper than the original. Yes they are in C5 sizes, and are currently available.

the original poster was referring to "TheNext Generation Goodyear EMT. He was not asking about the seven year old Michelin Pilot ZP... design... Goodyear has redesigned their EMT for the C6, to address issues of noise and handling... the C6 has different sized tires... IN my opinion.. Goodyear will offer the Next Generation EMT in C5 sizes.. with 1/4 million C5's out there...
