Need Tire Recommendations For The Track
I'll be taking my CLS63 AMG with stock 19" AMG wheels to Laguna Seca in a month or so and wanted to get some recommendations on streetable tires that are also good on the track.
Thoughts on:
Pirelli P-Zero Corsa
or
Michelin Pilot Super Sport
or
Michelin Pilot Sport PS3
Thanks much,
John

FF. W212 E63 M156 non-pano 18" P2 ParkT NightV (gone but will be missed).
There was a thread (likely on C63 side) within past 6 months about Michelin not covering for damage sustained on the Track on PSS despite Michelin advertising PSS almost like track tires for the road. You might want to check out that thread before you decide on it.

It's a lot of weight for any of those tires. Of those PSS is probably the best and will handle the abuse the most. Corsas are amazing but are only 60treadwear so they will be toast in no time.
If they make a Dunlap Z2 star spec, or Potenza 71-R in your size those would be your best bet be they have super stiff sidewalls and have insane dry grip
