The PSS is an amazing street tire. Definitely one of the best out there right now.

However if you don't think your driving style is such to take full advantage of the performance, but you still want summer performance, you might want to consider a tire like the Continental DW (not DWS). It should cost a good bit less than the PSS but still offers good dry and wet weather performance with nice wear characteristics.
