PS, not PS2.

Ahh, that makes sense. I had the original PS years ago and they were pretty bad. The PS2 bears no resemblance to the PS. The new wave of super-tires like the PS2, Advan, RE11, etc. are pretty amazing.

I have had the Sumitomo tires on my BMW 335 and love them. when it is time to change the 964 over, it will be to Sumis. Nice grip, quiet, feel light. What I require in a tire.

You must be one of the few Italian men who feel this way

Went to Rome/Florence/Chianti/Milan last June, only saw one boxster and one cayman. Lots of Ferraris though, so you must be in a minority.

I run Pirelli PZero Rossos.

Great in the dry, slippery in the wet. Considering it's wet here a lot I really ought to get a better all rounder.
