Tire Replacement

Have a left rear tire wearing down more than the right rear and is about toast. OEM's are Michelin Pilot Supersports 295/30za20's w 101y compound. Was going to just replace with same however have heard some noise about the P4's being better for whatever reasons. I know there are a few threads here about the rubber but most seem to deal with winter vs non winter or Canada but I am in Texas so just hot, flat, and full of potholes most of the time. Just looking for some advise especially if I can gain more mileage, not lose grip, and not increase the noise. I found such replacments for an earlier C63 but asking for help here.

Thanks

Have used many, including the ones you mention, I would suggest switching all 4 tires over to the Pilot Sport 4s if looking for the best street tire possible for warm dry conditions. Will be fine if you drive “normal” in rain as well.
