Body shop replaced PS4 with Super Sport....good or bad?

[phuxtick]

Sorry I'm a scrub and don't know enough about the tires here.....was this good or bad for me? I have a 2020 Stinger GT1 RWD with K&N intakes, 2-step plugs, Borla exhaust, and JB4 tune map 2...did something really f*cking stupid and drove home in the rain after having too much to drink at a bar and spun the Stinger into a ditch at like 30mph causing $32k in suspension damage. Caliber Collision replaced my PS4 with Super Sports......am I good, or should I press them for PS4? I feel like they are way grippier already (just got the car back today after 3 months, so I could be pretty wrong), but I'm curious if these tires are worth a shit on our cars. I was already planning on swapping full PS4S and new wheels next year, but I'm wondering if these Super Sports gave me a little more time to tackle other things like sway bar and better brake pads (EBC) while I save for working with Fitment Industries for wheels/tires.

Maybe this will help?

I heard they are pretty similar though.

Super sports are the “old” PS4S model. They are good.

The Michelin Pilot Super Sports are the OEM tire on my 2016 C7 Z51 Corvette, so they are a good/great tire, I’ve been really happy with them. So far, I have a little more than 30,000 km’s on them, but they will need to be replaced early next summer.

The one drawback with them is they cannot be used/moved in below freezing temperatures. Under 7 deg C (approx. 20 deg F) the rubber will crack (apparently, even if the tire pressure is changed).

I will be replacing them with either the PS 4 or PS 4S.

$32k? That's a typo, right?

Ya thinking write-off.

Heh....I wish. Have the paperwork to prove it. First estimate was $21k, supplemental for another $10k, then they finished off with another $2300 supplemental all sent to USAA.
