Jhandy,

It looks like your tires are very different and may not be a good match.

Michelin PS2- wear rating 220, very sticky amazing summer street tire, lousey in cold weather.

Pirelli Asimmetrico- Several models, wear rating 420 I think?? decent all season tire, fair grip in summer, good grip in winter.

Mixing brands of tires is ok as long as you stay with the same tire performance type. Using tires with very different characteristics is probably causing your handling problems. Go back to your tire tech and explain the problem. Maybe you can find a better match.
