Default time for new tires.... opinions?>>
i'm in between PS2's and Bridgestone's Potenza RE050A Pole Positions, which scored higher on tirerack and are also cheaper.... I've heard good things about the PS2's but haven't heard anything about the pole positions...
these would be for use in florida so they have to be great in the dry and in the wet...
TIA

Default I replaced my pilot sports with Goodyear eagle F1's, very good in the wet..
They also make a model with a stiffer sidewall than the standard eagle F1. They are a lot cheaper than the PS2's also.

Default I absolutely LOVE the PS2s!!
Compared to the following I've used on the car:
Original Pilot sports
ContiSportContac
Goodyear GS-D3
Pirelli PZero Nero M&S
now these.

Default PS2 is good but sidewalls are a little bit weak for my off ramp tendancies
Vag Com monitored at .96G on an onramp. now that's hard on a sidewall

Default I went with the Bridgestone Pot. RE750. Great tire-good price to performance ratio.
Also not too noisy.
