2008 C4S Tire recommendations

Time for another set of tires. Only the third set - about 33k miles.I'm comparing the OEM Pilot Sport PS2 with the Pilot Sport 4S. The 4S gets better customer ratings, aren't N rated and are slightly cheaper on Tire Rack. Has anyone here tried the 4S's?

I only have a recommendation of what NOT to get for regular street use unless road noise is a non-issue. Here: https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires...e&autoModClar=

Just got a set of these. Grip is phenomenal so they would make great auto cross or even track tires but the road noise is something that must be heard to be believed. Can't imagine what they'll sound like with 10K miles on them if they produce this kind of racket brand new.

Lol - thanks. I think that's one thing I'd like to avoid. I don't want to necessarily give up any performance, but I don't track the car so that's not a factor.

The 4S is amazing. Amazing Grip and comfortable to boot.
