The original stock tires don't warm up on the street and the Michelin PS4S tires I have now don't have a great feel (maybe because they are old), so I am considering something new.
I would like a grippy tire that warms up pretty quickly for normal summer sport driving. Tire Rack shows Michelin Pilot Super Sports, Pirelli P Zeros, and Continental Extreme Contact Sport 02s, as potential likely contenders. What are your thoughts on these tires? Or should I stick with the PS4s? Any other tires that might work that I have not mentioned?
Any feed back is welcome.
Thanks.

I would stick with the PS4S. Its probably the best street tire you can get. The Super Sport is the old previous iteration of the PS4S and P Zero is not even close to the perfomance of the PS4S. The Extreme Contact Sport 02 is the newest of the bunch, but I haven't heard it being superior to the PS4S.
You could try something stickier like the Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD09. I am not too sure how quickly it warms up compared to the PS4S though.
