Default Pirelli Tires

Has anyone tried Pirellis lately?
They used to be OEM on Porsche and Jaguar, but it seems they've sucked an egg lately... Just looking for some recent experience.

I am mostly looking at their Pzero Rosso in 225/255.
My dad replaced some Michelin Pilot Sport MXX3s with the Pzero Nero M/S...

My opinion -

Dry Traction:
Mich PS - 9
Pzero MS - 7.5

Wet Traction:
Mich PS - 4
Pzero MS - 8

Handling:
Mich PS - 8.5
Pzero MS - 7.5

Feedback:
Mich PS - 9
Pzero MS - 7

Comfort:
Mich PS - 3
Pzero MS - 9

But apparently their Rosso Pzero is their best performer, so I am looking at experience with that tire. I can't seem to find that tire at TireRack. Any input is appreciated.
