I've had Michelin Pilot Sports, Pilot Super Sports, Firestone Firehawk Indy 500, Hankook RS4s.

If you want something similar to the PSS, but at much more of a bargain, without significant inside shoulder wear, get the Firestone! Plenty of grip and good treadlife. Plus I got a set for sale LOL

That said, if you want something closer to RE71R, get the Hankook RS4s. Great tire, you'll be holding grip on the last few sessions of a lapping day, while everyone else on RE71Rs are slipping around. Plus they last so much longer
