Wondering if i can swap them at my dealer?
Any thoughts from folks who have run these tires for a while? Especially those who have run high-performance Pirellis?
Thanks god these are not Goodyear or Contis!!!

I've been on them since Nov last year and done about 5k. I dont have any major complaints aside from the odd bit of skittishness on a corner with some adverse camber that I regularly fly around. I wouldn't have them on an out and out sports car, but on an inbetween car like the GC I dont find them so bad that I'd swap them out. I also dont find them so good that (given the price) I'd stick with them come replacement time. (Its hard to compare to P Zero's/etc as they have been on completely different cars).
I'm sure your dealer will be amenable, but you may have to pay dealer prices for the replacements. The cheaper route would be to supply your own replacements and sell yours privately. Given the cost new, I think you'd not have much trouble getting a fair chunk of your money back.
