I'm seriously tempted to go back... am i alone in this thought?

I can’t comment on summer PS4S, but I use non star marked PS4S-AS when the weather gets colder, and OEM Pirellis in the summer. I personally like both tires for different reasons. PS4S-AS offers a very comfortable and composed ride, with a more “confident” road grip, and does not seem to need much warm up. Pirellis offer more dynamic and playful ride with better handling around the corners. Pirellis do require some warm up. If you push them hard right after cold start the tires seems to spin a bit. When Pirellis wear out I was planning on replacing them with summer PS4S but your comments are giving me a pause
