I've been checking Tire Rack for sometime now, still can't find 325/30/19

MPS cups are way too noisy for street use.

Feedback I have received so far has been nothing short of phenomenal. In every aspect this is a better tire than the PS2 was. I have plenty in stock and they are just about done with their "introductory" pricing. Please give me a call to order.

I agree, PS2's are not even close to the SS's! I am very happy with this tire and pleasently surprised.

What kind of pricing hike should we expect?

I saw people trying to compare SS to R888 ? apples to oranges. Should compare the PSCups to R888. SS is a street tire that you can track, like an RE-11 or AD08.

How is the sidewall wear so-far on the SS's? (I ask because the PS2s on hard cornering seem to shave off quick, and just seems the more rounded profile leads to that. The MPSCs do not)............just curious.

Let us know how you like them on the track.
Mr. B

Just did my first track day on these tires and they are much better than the older PS2's.
This may be a repeat, but this is good info:

Damon, what sizes, if any, will work on factory 20' 2010 Panamera turbo wheels? Super excited about these tires and hope to break into the 10s in this family truckster.

I now have 5 track days (3 dry, 2 wet) on my PSS's, and the shoulders of the tires have worn down noticeably. When new, the edges have a slightly square profile and now it's more rounded. I'm not an expert driver (I'm Blue run group) so I'm not as hard on tires as more aggressive drivers.

I'm still getting used to the PSS, but the more I use them, the more I like them. I think they are particularly good in the rain.

How does the Pilot SS compare to RE-11 or AD08, I see that Tirerack still put them in 2 different category.
