Also keep in mind that the Michelin Super Sport likely will have significantly longer tread life than the others if its treadwear rating is accurate, so it will need to be replaced less often and in the long run might actually be cheaper than the others. Plus, it's less expensive than the PS2 that it replaces!
You're right! But my friends have advised me against trusting the treadwear ratings so I'm pretty confused here. My first set of PS2's wore out in 12,000 miles and I don't consider myself a very aggressive driver (Note: the PS2 had a treadwear rating of 220).
