Tires are supposed to ground the vehicle completely. It isn’t performance oriented if I’m losing that direct feedback which inhibits performance. Might also be a key reason as to why I’m not sliding everywhere now. I can feel the road again (at least in the rear) which allows for a better modulated throttle response. Which would immediately position the PSS well above the PS4S in performance. Bottom line, if I can’t feel the goddamn road, it’s meant for a Rolls Royce.
Have you looked into a more dedicated ultra performance tire like cup 2s?
