Tuff decision and little time :(

I'm having a tuff time as my tires are almost worn to the wire with 19,000 miles on them. I've been waiting all year for TSW to release 20" Nurburgring RFs, but to no avail. I can't wait anymore so as I see it I have just two choices.
Choice #1- go with something similar such as MMR HR6 wheels (about $75 more per wheel).
Choice #2- buy Pirelli P Zeros for $950 and keep the stock wheels.

Sorry, but why can't you buy the Pirellis and just mount them on the TSWs when they're ready?

19k miles.....WOW.....I hope to get that much out of mine. I have a feeling I'll be lucky to get 12k - 15k. Luckily I work from home so I only put about 7k a yr on my cars.

HR-6 look good on our cars IMO. I wouldn't put pirelli's back on my car, but that's me. I think they are too expensive for what you get. I say option 1.
