Kiss your handling goodbye if you get those.

You will sacrifice handling, but they offer all season traction, super quiet ride, and decent tread wear. Really depends on what you want from the tire

The PS2 is totally different vs. the db S2. Its a max performance summer tire so it wont wear as long or ride as quietly as the db does. But the handling will be far superior. The PS2 will last longer, ride better, and be quieter than the stock Advan though. If your looking for a bit more practicality (and I use that term loosely with max performance tires) over the Advan the PS2 would be a good tire. But your really taking a different jump going with the db.
