Then again, I don't have a supercharger on top of my engine, so that might have made the difference. I think the stocker + Snow/Ice mode in the rain would have been fine, as Snow/Ice mode numbs down the throttle input.

If you never track then PS4S is fine as long as you are cool with the price. I just can't give up that combo of track grip and value on mine.
Agree. On my Michelin Pilot Sports, I had to put it in Weather mode anytime it was below 40F and / or raining. I’ve been running in “Sport” mode without issue on the Conti’s.
