Ventus V12 EVO2 is the sleeper tire in this category. A few buddies run them, they are a lot like the PSS, in that they are a summer performance tire with consideration to tire life. But at an even lower cost.
I have RS3's on my S2000 and have for a while now. Fantastic dry grip when they're warmed up but then wet grip is abysmal...I actively avoid driving that car in the rain partially because of that.
I've been happy with the Michelin Pilot 3S all-seasons (I think that's the name), pretty quiet for an ultra high performance all season.

Yes, i noticed a difference, but not drastic.
I have X-ice 3 on my Tucson and they are great. My brother also has them on his Tucson, he does daily highway drives and he loves them.
I purchase michelin tires because they are used on airplanes, the space shuttle, and formula one cars (formerly).
In addition to Star Specs, Hankook RS3s are a good and cheap track tire. They withstand heat well.
The Hankooks are great daily driver tires, but after running one autocross on them I was not happy with them for performance driving. I have them on my BMW.
I 100% disagree with the Hankook Ventus Line. A directional summer tire? Absolutely pointless. AND a semi-slick? It doesn't make sense. They have water diversion channels. As the front of the water channel encounters the water, it shoots out the side in such a way that the tire is allowed to keep maximum efficiency. But what's the point of that on a summer tire? Hankook has taken a hit in their R&D department, their rep who brought us the RS-3 about 2 months ago said that they used the same radial belt design, while only changing the dynamics of the road encounter.
