All these tires have been testing but usually its for tracking.

There isn't much, if any, testing data for "bite" for a roll-on WOT or from a stop with cars like ours.

The thing about tires like RS3s (140 treadwear) or AD08s (180 treadwear), it may take some heat in them to get them to hook up well in straight line acceleration. But once they are hot they are fantastic (like any track tire really).

The PSS is 300 treadwear and so these tires don't need as much heat in them to grip. However they tend to melt when pushed at the track on a hot day. The RE11 is 200 treadwear and is probably the best all around tire if you only want one set of tires.
