michelin ps2's are MUCH more responsive as far as steering imput
in terms of grip.. theyre about the same as PS2's
however, the michelins stop better, the toyo's are MUCH better in the rain, and you can rotate the tires side to side

however, with the type of driving i do, i need something that responds better.. im guessing its because of the sidewalls ?
Sidewalls (315/25)? what sidewalls!

ET911 is infamous around these parts
Guys, I've been reading this post and the general consensus indicates that Toyo tyres are great - but can you recommend any better tyres that perhaps would cost more but give tons of grip?

I have PZero's in my car but when I took it to the drag strip a few days ago, all wheels were breaking loose on 1st and 2nd. On the street I'm having trouble even on third - traction light flashing wildly as its trying to keep me going on a corner or in a straight.

So I need stickier tyres, but would prefer to get some feedback before I give my precious dollars away..

Thank you!
