Don't know what treadwear is really like with the RE-11's considering I beat the crap out of these tires with auto-x. I have 5500 miles on the tires and the fronts are shot on the outside, the rears have even wear but are going to be reaching the wear bars soon. PS2's are a good tire but can't really compete against the RE-11 in terms of outright grip, definitely a better all round performer though.
Yeah I considered getting a set of RE-11s, actually, because I know the grip is superior to the PS2. But I ended up going with the PS2 on account of its higher TW.
