S04's, there's no doubt in my mind. (cost -efficiency). They are a very close second to the PSS. So close that the PSS isn't worth the price difference for 99% of the drivers.
Tire Rack online. The trick is finding someone to mount and balance them without scarfing your wheels.

chances are the S04's are pretty much the same but with better sidewall and tread appearance and comfort.
one benefit PSS has that i noticed is weight. they are quite a bit lighter than the S04's.

I noticed I was driving on steel tread on the back tires when I was washing my car last week. Cost is a huge factor for me right now since I'm not working and I live in SoCal where rain/snow/clouds don't exist. I did a little research and went with the Hankook Ventus V12 and noticed an immediate difference in less noise in the cabin but that could be from not having to drive on steel tread. $210 a piece but I'm happy so far and I'll find out if this tire wears quickly or if I have other issues, that will help me decide what to do when I need new front tires.
