The only vendor I can find even selling them online is TireRack. Who is going where for Super Sport ZPs and how much are you paying for them? Looks like $2k a set from Tire Rack.

tire rack is where I have always bought tires for my Vettes; although sometimes locally here in Republik of Maryland Radial Tire may have something available
Mind me asking - How many miles (highway/city) are you seeing on the super sports before their done? Just prepping myself for when I'll need a new set?

I probably drive a bit harder than most, but I'm at 17K now and got about 16k out of MPSS. The Cups lasted me 1k. On the plus side, my tire wear is extremely even; the rears are almost the exact same depth as the fronts. I just tear them up in the corners. My Z06 is my road trip car.
Thought they only get around 10k miles, this is good news
It's a little tough to take when my MPSS on my GTR gave me 25k and even then weren't down to the bars. These are about 1k miles away from the bars, which I will do next weekend.
Talked to Tire Rack, on the plus side I'll get some credit for the front, which are definitely in fact rated for 30k. Since I only made it to 15k I'll get about $400 back on the warranty. The rears are only rated for 15k, so nothing there. Better than nothing though.
I got 10500 out of mine, but was driving on cord. Outsides looked good, but when I looked under, Holy sheepsh!t. My second set were Continentals. I am on my 3rd set of tires, went back to MPSS. I think I like the Conti's better. I am at 26k now, got 16k out of the Conti's, had some tread left,but was slippin and slidin on corners.
I'm hesitant on the Conti's because I'm pretty hard in the corners and I really don't like the narrower profile. I also cover a TON of miles far away from home, so the run flats I'm hesitant to leave behind. I'm fine using a plug and compressor, but... hmmm... Sure wish they made the new Sport 4 in our size.
I was pretty happy with Conti's, especially in the rain. I will most like go back to Conti's after these MPSS wear out. Michelin warrantied my original MPSS, the only reason I have this set of them.
Keep in mind many tire stores struggle with mounting the run flats. Horror stories and ruined rims. I go to America Tire, they seem to have no issues. Some have had issues. Do a search.
BTW, Conti are the right size, read the sticker in the pics above, but they are not run flats. The edges are rounded, not square.
