Oh and in case you were confused, the "PS2s" that you keep talking about as being amazing.. are Michelin but you posted a picture of Bridgestone. I posted Falkens because we are talking about Falken Tires. The pictures just go to show what a company you'd deem a "budget company" with "budget tires" can do. Their tires must not be worth a damn if they are sponsoring all these drivers in competitive motorsports.

These are tires that come from the factory on some of the word's premier sports/exotic-cars, and downgrading from that level is quite laughable.
So you are saying that if the tire isn't a "PS2s, RE050A PPs, F1 GS-D3s, PZeros" then it's a step down? You don't mention RE-11s?
