PSS. They're just the best thing out there for a hard driven street car, no contest.

I must drive like a super grandma. I'm at around 28,000 miles on my OE Michelin PS2s for the past 3 years.

No doubt I'll be buying Michelin PSS soon for my E46 and E90!

Hankook R-S3 or bust

Edit: if no track and worried about treadwear then Michelin it is

Got 11K on my original PS2 rears, Replaced with some Toyo Proxes (cuz they were cheap). The front PS2s went at 26K, which meant I had 15K on the rear Toyos. Got all 4 new Michelin Pilot SS at 29K. Now have 33K miles and tons of tread left. The PSSs handle better (or so it seems) better than PS2s and seem to last longer... Will know more when they go bald.
PSS all the way!
