[s-cars] tire recommendation needed

[northrup]

A friend of mine just put ToyoProxies T1-S on his 5 series BMW.  He had 
the same concerns.  Seems a good price was had here: http://edgeracing.com

Findings on my car would be irrelevent to you, as i have an aftermarket 
exhaust.  I rarely hear the tires.   I'll try to get a ride in the BMW 
next week.

Rumor has it that this need takes just about any ultra high performance summer tire out of the running.  Does anyone have experience with the new Pilot Sport PS2?  What about the Nitto N-555.  Is high performance all season a better alternative (no, I don't track the car)?
