That's an interesting argument. I currently have two sets of wheels, with performance winter tires on the stock wheels and the Primacies on RPF1s. I've read two main opinions on good all season tires - one that they are just as good as summer tires and another that they still miss out on things like progressiveness, steering feel, etc.
As I already have a winter set, I don't mind using summer tires. On the other hand, I don't do track and autocross enough to justify dedicated tires for that (even though I could relegate the RPF1 for that and run all seasons on the stock wheels).
Still, perhaps it does drive home the point that super grippy tires might not be needed for the street. I wonder if instead I should focus on feel, rather than outright grip - I know some Extreme Performance tires are known for excellent lap times but poor steering feel, for example.
