You say PS5 are nothing special, although I haven;t tried the 5, surely they have to be up there as a benchmark tyre on which to base performance of your diff on the road?

PS5's have very large gaps in the outer tread blocks compared to GYF1 ASM 5 for example, which may be one of the causes especially when cornering harder. I picked them for grip and comfort for the 1st replacement set (car still had original tyres on when I bought it) so not complaining, but they aren't the last word in feedback. The lighter wheels and discs I now have do make it more sprightly, but the next set of tyres will be more sport orientated.
Asymmetric 6 are a more sporty feeling tyre as are the Bridgestone Sport. Tyrereviews tests over the last couple of years have said the Michelin isn't the most sporty tyre and yet every man and his dog continues to rave about then 🤷

I'm not saying though that it's not possible there are better tyres but I don't have the luxury of trying lots of different ones so I can make an informed choice. On my second set now and would happily go for another set. Nearly went for the Goodyears this time but I got the PS4Ss cheaper and I didn't want the gamble...
