I plan on running 235/45R17 Michelin Alpin PA4 on an OEM set of Audi wheels for the winter setup.
My wife's Jeep is running BJ's Michelin tires. Been on for two years and still work/look great.
I recently bought a set of the "discount" special deal Michelin tires for the wife's car and the part number and SKU were identical to the ones I could buy at Discount Tire, Tire Rack, Firestone, or any other tire installer.
I have a set of Pilot Sport A/S 3s from Costco and have detected no cost cutting. They are awesome.
I couldn't stand the Contisport 5P runflat tyres and got rid of them with 4mm of tread on them. I got Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s and I can really recommend them. Before I fitted them I tried a simple brake tests from 70mph and then again(same weather conditions) after I fitted the tyres and they had covered a few hundred miles and the car stopped between 30 and 40ft quicker each time. The ABS hardly if at all kick in. As for cornering, well you can guess I'm impressed with them. Okay they only come with 5mm of tread but they are worth it. To give you an idea how good they are, they have more grip in the wet (very wet) than the Conti tyres had in the dry.
These are rare, look great and are durable. The tires only have about 5k miles on them and show minimal tire wear.
Stick with Michelin. They are the best.
I have gunmetal colored Nuespeed RSe07 18\" w/ Michelin PSS on my blue R & love them. Excellent steering feel, responsive, suspension feels very happy w/ the new shoes
btw, i run nexen n3000 tires and love them.
I can only speak re: the PS2's. Had them on my S2000 for track duty. Unbelievable grip once their hot. Key point here. They're risky as daily drivers, and use caution about driving in the rain - it's like ice. If they're cold (like anytime their not warmed by a few yellow-laps), they are slick. Pardon if I didn't read all of your question, if you want the most adhesive track tire out there, go for it. I did use them as daily drivers, they were fine, but could bite you.
