Default anybody know the model name of the sport tires?

I have an '05 with the sport package. I know the tires are Michelin, and I *think* they are pilot sports, but I'm not completely sure. Can anyone set me straight? thanks!

Big difference between Pilot Sports - "PS2" vs the all seasons - "PS2-AS". the ps2 is a max performance summer tire, good handling in wet and dry but not snow. The ps2-as is the all season and is okay in snow I've heard. I live in Florida and only go with the ps2.

These tires are great -- but they wear rapidly and become noisy.

I had the AS versions on my allroad.
