Tires, again.

I feel like I ask this question a lot, but all the threads I could find searching were old.

So, here goes:

Need tires for the Boxster. I'll use them on the street, but only in niceish weather. I'll also use them for DEs. I want them to last fairly well on the track, but also be as grippy as possible.

I've got Yoko AD-08s, which have lasted two years and something like 12 track days, which seems hard to beat.

The other option is the Potenza RE-11, which are on sale and $200 cheaper for the set.

PSSs are supposed to be great, but the shoulder wear on those is worse than the Yokos, at least from anecdotal experience.

Any others worth considering?

EDIT: Looks like the PSSs are $200 cheaper than the Yokos, too. That might make my decision for me.
