I don't know how PSS are in comparison to my RS3s, but they took a good 500+ miles to fully break in. Enjoy them!

TylerT how do you like the RS3 tires? I have been considering a set for the TSX for Dragon trips and possible trip to the track.

500 miles?! That's like 2 months of driving for me!

For the price, I really like them - great value, phenomenal grip when warm, and they do decently well in the rain for a 200 tread wear tire. Funny, I was talking with Tyler about longevity and I could have sworn I had over 15,000 on the rears (which need replacing soon) ... checking the pictures on my phone they've only lasted me around 11,000

Fronts have a fair amount of meat left.

I drive pretty aggressively and I have quite a few canyon runs racked up & 10 runs of AutoX.

I've driven the S2000 VERY little since getting the S4, maybe 2000 miles since June of last year.

Spacers are much needed. I need another alignment and then I'll see how much room I'm working with. Seems like the fronts are already pretty close

They're awesome so far! Much grip, very handle.

.
11k miles and them having been driven aggresively sounds great. Right now I would say I am lucky if I put 3k miles on the TSX a year and it is pretty much always in the sun unless I happen to be away on a mountain trip in it and get caught in the rain. Would you say they are probably better than the PSS? Obviously they are a much softer tire for one.

I've never driven on PSS so I can't give you any feedback there, but the general consensus is RS3s are very competitive track tires for a lower price.

I have no complaints with my set.

Same lol. But I'm cheating in that the car gets 6 months of downtime anyway.

Looks fantastic!

I miss my PSS so much. I can't wait to swap on my summer set in a month or so.

Thank you! I'm in love with these tires. I'm not used to picking up little pebbles and such while driving

I picked up something else today

Nope. But I do need a new set. I'm an OEM snob but I might get the all-weather ones that J has in his car. I really enjoying having a set in the TL and I have some in my other vehicles too.

It was a busy weekend full of cars













Installed!







And one from this morning:



In all honesty, I was never 100% sure about them, but I'm glad I bought them. Pictures don't do them justice. They truly complete the OEM+ look and I'm extremely happy
