The two remaining N spec tires have issues. The Pirelli has horrible cracking issues in cold weather and PS2 are very outdated tires and have been surpassed by a number of newer tires. I get the new tires installed in the next two or three weeks.
Post your impression when you put some miles on them. Those weigh a few pounds lighter than Michelin As3+ if I recall, so I'm interest how they handle, as my new summer tires.
