Honestly, it would be fun and worthwhile to have a general tire guide post. Structure as a loquacious shitpost but with serious pros/cons for track/autocross, performance, and everyday tires.

As an example; what will you put on the wheels of the 300C when its factory rubber date-codes out? What would you put on the rear wheels of a corvette with more than 600 hp used for Racing In Mexico? What did you run in the Singer Milan (so long as cost was not a factor) etc, etc...

I have used the predecessor tire (Pilot Super Sport), the tire in question, as well as the successor tire (Pilot Sport 5). I think the PS5 offers more “performance” than the Pilot Sport Cup 2, in fact.

I would be hard pressed to consider any other brand, even on a vehicle for which Michelin was not among the OEM tire options.
