Getting my HRE FF01 in soon. Which tire should I buy? PSS OR V12? It's my daily drive. However I do like to step on it and need reliable traction. My car is an e92 335 and pushing around 400hp. Any suggestions or feedback on anyone who has owned these tires would help. PSS are $300 more, are they worth it??

Assuming you're aware they are both summer tires on a daily driver, go with the PSS or Conti DW, but yes worth the $ over the V12s.

Overall, you probably won't notice much better straight line traction with PSS over the V12's. However, thew PSS shines in cornering. It is a dual compound tire. I've read the inside tread is like a 360tw rated rubber and the outside tread is like a 160tw rated rubber.

I'd recommend moving to a true 200tw rate tire. They are about the best performing tires you can get that are still street legal. They get pretty hard in anything <60f though. Makes sense for a summer tire.

RS3's have been on clearance. I'd recommend the Re-71's though or the new RIVALs.
