I use a dedicated set of NT01 for dry days and have used the PS4S for DD or if it rains, and occasionally at the track on a dry day. (Spares/punctured track tire/worn out track tire before I could get a new set ect)
The car is basically 80/20 track street. Unfortunately my home track uses a brick like over run in certain places and if I touch it under load it rips a piece of the tire off. The solution is to not hit the rumbles, but it's somewhat tricky in the rain, plus I'm used to running all over them on my racing line because on my track tires it's fine. I think the narrow tread blocks get ripped off if you hit the rumbles strips while the tire is loaded and slightly rolled over. This only seems to only affect my fronts and PS4S. I can full on slide into the rumbles sideways with the NT01 and not cause damage.
19x10 wheel
Is there decent rain/DD alternative tire that has wide shoulder blocks that might be less prone to damage? The RE71s have fairly wide shoulder sections but suck in the rain. If not I guess ill just have to try and be careful but if you bump the dang things it's a 370 dollar mistake, 800 if you bump both sides.
