Anyways I was in a pinch for time/money and didn't by online. My LBS had Bontrager Race Lite Hardcase tires, so I purchased one for the rear.
After around 100 miles with it, it shows no sign of wear (couldn't say the same about the zaffiros) and no flats yet. It does seem a bit more sluggish than the zaffiro was though...
