Question 2019 Best Tires for '12 C63 AMG w/ Performance Package

As the title suggests, looking for your opinions on the best tires for a 2012 C63 AMG with Performance package in 2019. I've seen another thread but its very outdated.
Not taking my car to the track, simply street driving/road tripping! What are some great tires that emphasize comfort along with keeping up with the beast V8?

Michelin pilot sport 4s are great. I daily my C63 and they have been holding up just fine. No road noise, no ride issues.

No idea lol. Probably around 15k-25k miles a year. I drive in manual mode 99% of the time, spirited sprints pretty frequently and the Michelin lasts really well.

Continental Extreme Contact Sport! Had them on my previous 09 BMW 650i w Sport Package. AWESOME tire. One of the best. I currently drive a '18 Macan Turbo. Ran a set of Conti Sport Contact 6's on 20" wheels. Terrible tires for that particular use. Replaced them with Goodyear Asymmetric 3's. Much better ride. With all that said, the next set of tires on my '13 C63 coupe with the AMG Dev Pkg will see a new set of Extreme Contact Sports.

Recent Aussie 2019 performance tyre test had the Michelin PS4S as the overall winner in this comparo. Only won 2 of the 5 disciplines outright, but was a consistent tyre overall.
