E46 320d new tyres - CSC5s or PS3s?

Ta,

Started reading more & figured out the PS3s were not the PS2 replacement that they should be.

Whereas the CSC5s are a nice upgrade from the 3s :)
 
The wet performance of these is unreal!

I'm really rather liking this rubber, feels like a noticable upgrade from the PS2s and it's not just new rubber syndrome :)
 
They just seem unaffected by some surprisingly large/deep puddles... I keep driving through them to double check I'm not going crazy lol (oh, I already am :D)

The slightly softer sidewalls give a more comfortable ride and yet i'm sure they're a little bit more communicative too.

Wasn't expecting such a noticeable improvement from the PS2s.

Did you go from csc2's to 5's?

If so, rumour has amongst the grip improvements road noise decreased, noticed this at all?

No... Michelin PS2 -> CSC5

And yes, road noise has decreased moving between these too.

Quite a few small improvements like that... but the major improvement is by far the wet performance...

I don't remember the CSC3s being this good, but didn't spend long with them in an M3 on a wet track and they may have been low on tread, not sure now.

Not available for your car anyway.

Still die a little inside every time I put my foot down... wish I'd gone for the 545 sport :(

Oh well... not much longer... new car time Q1 next year... if Switzerland goes ahead, it'll be a 991... if USA happens instead, it'll be a Z06.

If neither happens... I'll be sorely depressed :(
