Agree. I've had pilot super sports on the car since February , they are rock solid tires on the street and so far have very little signs of wear and I drive the car a lot and its low with a pretty aggressive setup. Imo for the money one of the best tires for warm weather driving, above freezing temps at least.
my two cents

OT question concerning tires. I'm thinking about going from the 235 on 19's in the front to 225 on 19's, is there a big difference in cornering? The reason I'm doing that is the space between the wheel well and tire is pretty tight and a 225 would give me a little more room.

probably no perceivable difference in street driving. Wider tires often don't give you more grip and there are so many other varibles that who the hell knows.
