I was pleasantly surprised to find these tires were factory-equipped on my S-Line Ti A4 Avant (basically the same tire that came factory-equipped on my Porsche Cayman S!). Used as three season tires, I have been so pleased with the way they have performed that I find it very difficult to buy anything else as a replacement (even with the high price point). Many may question (including me) putting such a high $$, high performance tire on a daily driver that won't see an auto-x or road course, but I gotta say that with the way these tires hold and communicate, the resulting high confidence level from behind the wheel (when it matters most) makes them worth every penny. Another noteworthy item Given the PS2s are a max performance category tire, I was impressed with the life I got out of them (>20,000 miles is HUGE for a max performance/summer tire). And when I approached the wear indicators, tire noise, present on every max performance tires I have ever owned, was virtually non-existent. Nice job Michelin.
