I will say that I prefer strong planted feel to loose feel like skidding coming out of a stop while turning right (for example).
Any thoughts would help me decide, is the rear wing bad or good? Especially rear window blockage?
If I get the PP likely would get new rubber so the price difference is not as great looking at that way. Plus maybe I would like the better reinforcements and suspension of the tS?

The car is pretty planted even with the shitty "prius" tires. A lot of it is how you drive. before i changed tires i only ever broke the tail end out once by accident and that was before i took a turn harder than i should have.
You can skid this car no matter what tire and wheel setup you have. My friends "drift" right hand turns all the time and they are running sticky Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Hankook RS4's.
A few things to consider. The rear wing will add down force. It also adds weight. The Aero package adds downforce. The wider tires add more contact to the ground. Everything there is for maximum grip from the factory. It will also weigh a bit more. You would be surprised at the difference between having all that vs not. That being said the wing doesnt make a huge difference unless you are at high speeds 80+.
A big question is. Are you planning on modding this car at all? If so maybe the extra suspension wont matter to you if you plan on ever lowering the car or getting coilovers. If the car is going to stay completley stock then yeah maybe the tS will be worth it for you. But if you plan on doing any sort of mods, maybe a PP would be the better deal for you as its more of a base stock form than the tS would be.
