I've already decided on Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires when I'm ready to buy. For what it's worth, I also have a friend who races regularly, including Car and Driver One Lap (on road + circuit driving), and he strongly recommended the Michelin PSS which he has run on a BMW M3. Check out the Tire Rack review here:

What I see from that graphic is a marginal improvement in mixed performance
7.64 for the S-04
7.84 for the PSS

Compared to a substantial price difference

$782.44 for a set of S-04
$1121.96 for a set of the PSS
