I have no experience on either tire ... but from all that I have read - the Michelin PS2 is the best available tire.

After my S03's wear out .. I plan on buying the PS2's unless something better comes on the market.

Ad07 and especially the RE01's ... top notch.

However, I need 19 inch .. these tires only come in 18 inch.

Also, the RE01 is getting a little long in the tooth .. and Michelin has leaped over BS (including F1 racing, IMO).

Even if the RE01's were available in 19 inch configuration at this time.. I would still go PS2... and I am not a big French fan, for obvious reasons.

GY-Z....there are no 19inch RE01 being made...and that is what fairladyZ was trying to say.

They are all top notch tires...u cant really say one is better than the other...depending on what u are comparing to specifically.

ic, thanks for the translating

there should be a slight difference in RE01 and PS2.
or even AD07 in PS2.
i have tried PS2 already, its grip better then the SO2 in both dry and wet conditioni.i sold the PS2 and get the AD07, but haven't put the AD07 on my car yet.want to wear out the SO2 first.(too much tires in the garage now.. )
hopefully i'll wear out the SO2 on my next track event.
and put AD07 on when i go to Pacific racway on Aug, and see which one is better.
