Default Michelin Pilot Sports or P-Zeros??

I would assume both are very good in performance.
How do they compare in tread wear and tire noise?

Default Pilot Sports

I've had several sets of Michelin tires on various cars and one thing I've noticed is that tread wear, even on Z rated, is much better than other brands. I've never had the P-zeros, but I have had the P7000 series and I like the Pilot Sports, on my S4 now, a lot more.

Default Either

P-Zero's are great dry tires. Pilot Sport's are better in the wet & a little quieter to my unscientifically calibrated ear.

Default ACTUALY THEY ARE DIFFERENT VERY...

the pilot sport is more like all weather (rain) Performance tire
and the
P-zero's and the MXX3 are more of a DRY Performance tire

so in conclusion the sports perform better in the rain
and the P-zero's and the MXX3 perform beter in the dry
