Any street tire offer better dry traction than Michelin Pilot Sport 4S ?

[TiGeo]

Thanks to everyone that recommended ECS2.
I will also put them on my other cars.

A bit less $$ than PS4S and to me, I can't imagine a difference between these and them meaningful enough to spend the extra money for street tires.

I use Continental all the time. But I will give edge to Michelin in overall quality. They have less balancing issues, and generally keep initial performance longer.

Pirelli corsa P Zero I'm fairly sure. I think they were the oem on the Hurrican evo.

Pirelli P Zero Corsa (K spec) where oem on my 430 Scuderia, great tire...but Pirelli quit making them for such a low production car. I waited two years on back order, but finally got Michelin Cup 2s installed recently. I hear they are crap in rain, but this is a "fair weather" car...I might get caught in the occasional shower...no problem, just slow down.

Maybe SUper Sport would be better option? They defy physics in both dry and wet! I still think best tire I ever had.

Those are oem on my BMW M550ix (BMW star marked)...they are great, but the reviewers say the 4S is better, and the S5 is just around the corner for launch in the USA in 2025 they say... Cup 2 is the tire Ferrari uses on all their newer tracked focused cars, so interested in how they would perform over the original equipment P Zero Corsa.

I get where you going with Cup 2. But, are you tracking Ferrari? I mean, considering your location, I wonder if those "lesser" tires like PSS, P4S, or 5S work better.

Rarely, but wanted to keep a tire with similar spec to what it came with (bragging rights lol). Most owners of the Scuderia are using either Cup 2 or RE71RS now that the P Zero Corsa is no longer available. Only occasionally I see some using P4S.

I think P4S would also reach a faster operating temperature there. I get bragging right, too. But then again, it is not a vehicle for some downpours anyway.
