I don't know about you guys over the water but Pilot Sport Cup 2 and similar 'track ready' rubber is becoming standard fit on a lot of performance version of cars in Europe.

As for noise, I don't notice any as roof down with the engine wailing away there is no difference!

Is the ride firmer? Not enough for me to really notice and complain! That said most of my driving has been in hot sunny conditions in very smooth roads in Spain.

Value for money there are probably better tyres suited for mostly road driving. We have Federal 595RSR and Nankang NS2R which are made by companies that used to be known as budget brands. Bang for buck though they are very good.
