Are the PS4S recommended for Daily Driving ?

I don't have many miles on my ECS's, maybe 1k at most so far. I run 285 square. I didn't get to run them at the dragon, but the improvement over the Advans in stock sizes is significant. The difference is greater in the rain. Breakaway characteristics are smooth, but I really have to force it with my car being NA. The new Tirerack tests show the PS4S coming out on top, but the difference is small. The ECS had higher overall wet grip and braking, but they claimed it was harder to use the highest levels the tire had to offer than the PS4S. Turn in and response were faster than the PS4S, but dry traction and braking were slightly lower. Honestly, the traction the car has now is beyond my driving skill. Unless I drop the clutch in first, it's not burning out. That's with 330+ and 260+wtq for reference. I live in Tampa, which is primarily why I jumped on the continental tires. Emergency braking is huge for me with all these idiots on the road when it's raining. And the fact I bout all 4 for under $1k is a pretty outstanding deal.
