So my conclusion, more front end grip with wider and stickier PSS tires up front is still better for quick lap times. However, this would decrease turn-in response. This could be compensated through adapting driving style (as mentioned by 4sevens) or by adjusting the suspension (camber and/or toe).

Am I correct?
