Might as well compare a Ferrari to a Civic.

If you can afford an M2 you can afford both.

There is no tire that's going to beat the PS4S for a daily tire, keep your standard wheels for those tires then pick the track rat tire/wheel combo for the type of laps you'll be doing.

TW is more important than SW.
Not kidding, I'm genuinely interested in treadlife between the two. Am I going to get 1 season out of an A052 or 2-3 seasons? The PS4S wore great on my Z06 and Cayman and I got 3 seasons out of it (but both were not DD cars). I'm not sure if the A052 will wear a ton faster or not. Do you have some experience to share with DD/track on a 200 treadwear tire with the M2?
