I'm going with Hankooks this time around when I find the cash. My PS2's have been excellent performing and quiet tires throughout their life, but I just don't have $1250 for a new set.
My buddy (Houston_CS4) who burns through three sets of tires on his 07S every year swears by the Hankooks as being just as good as the PS2s or better and they're half the price.
We will see.

Randall, check into the new RS3 Hankooks. They are getting great reviews and doing very well at DE's and auto-x. Only problem is sizes are limited right now and they have less than 10 sizes available. They make a 265/35/18 for the back but up front the closest I found was 245/40/18! I don't think that will fly so hopefully they will make a 235/40/18 or 225/40/18 soon.

I switched from PS2's to the Kuhmo XS and my auto-x times dropped by at least a full second and I saved about $500. I'm sure Michelin makes good tires, but just not for what I need them for.
