I have heard a lot of good things about the PSS, but unfortunately they don't seem to make a 255/40/17 to fit the rears of the 17" Boxster wheel. The more expensive PS2 does come in that size, but the mileage warranty is less, and I thought I had read somewhere that the PS2 was an older technology than the PSS.

I have twice now gotten a check for approx 65% of my total tire cost after roasting a set of rears in 5-6k miles (they didn't even ask whether it was tracked when buying replacements.

The PSS is a totally top-of-the-line tire for high performance street and light track/AX use, and is the best I've ever driven in the rain. It does not seem to wear nearly as long on my cars as the treadwear rating would indicate (undriveable in rain after 6k on rears).
