Default PS2 Impressions - Short

For what its worth.

2007 350Z Dyno tuned uprev otherwise stock. PS2s are stock sizes on stock rims.

Dry Grip - phenominal. Induces slight understeer and near impossible to break traction unless that is the intent

Wet Grip - Amazing even at speed through water deep enough to abruptly slow you down still never hydoplaned and corners like being on dry pavement with average to decent tires - high off ramps at normal to fast speed with confidence

Noise - minimal

Handling - precise

Summary - not a chance of being dissappointed

The end.

what tires have you run previously? What are you comparing them against in experience?

Reason I ask is because I have always had my eye on them but constantly wonder if they are worth the dollar. I went from OEM to RE760 sports and i fell in love with the RE760's. So I was just wondering what you can compare these against.

I had also heard running these tires at a drag strip was not ideal - they didn't provide grip on a launch? But that was heard third hand, so I do not tell people that. Have you tracked them?

You make a good point. I am probably not in a position to give valuable feedback. In the Z specifically I have only ran OEms and ICE2 snows. I have not been on a track with them either but will probably end up at Summit Point eventually. No dragstrip either but with respect to launch grip for a street tire - probably doesn't get much better unless you running warm, fresh DOT Race rubber. Ideal, well that would be a mission specific slick. On the PS2s my opinion stands but truth be told, I would have preferred to get the new Pilot Super Sport. Not available yet. No regrets. As far as price delta, less than pennies a mile
