Comments
As a recent owner of PS4S tires, I keep myself up to date on tires for my ND2 Miata. That said I decided to switch to the Conti ECSO2 this spring (2023). I'm glad I did for a variety of reasons, with price and warranty being the two main takeaways. As much as I loved the Michelins, they are always the most expensive and at the peak drop off faster than I'd want for serious touge driving let alone track duty. In contrast, I personally felt the ECS holds up better at the limit and the drop off was more manageable. With a proper street+ alignment, it could eat up the road for hours of fun. It almost feels like the new updated Conti is trying to find its endurance mode similar to its bigger brother, the endurance 200tw tire ECF. Looking at Conti competitors, this tire does the work you'd hope a summer tire would do, but has the longevity to keep you going past what you'd expect. Its wet grip felt on par with the Michelin in almost every way, even in hydroplaning conditions. I've put a good bit of miles on these tires and I'm happy to say I'd easily purchase them again. Not necessarily because it's just as good in dry or wet as the PS4S, but because it's a better price, warranty, and still provides the driver confidence you'd want out of a proper summer tire. An easy win in my book!
What is good?
Overall, the grip level is phenomenal, especially in the wet. The tire hydroplaned little, it is so confident in the rain. I was still able to pull .8G in the wet. In the dry, the grip level is comparable to the Pilot 4S. However, I wasn't satisfied with the handling characteristic. It has a soft sidewall which causes the tire to roll a bit when cornering. It loses the direct feeling compared to my car's OE tire. When I turn the wheel, there is always a delay in response. Also, the breakaway characteristic is a bit more abrupt than I expected. Noise level is pretty good, with slight groove noise when the pavement is really bad.
Comments
Had one dry track day and one wet (heavy rain) track day on the ECSO2.

Comments
Just recently swapped from 4S's to the Conti 02's and have not been disappointed with my decision. Running 245/35-19 on my Golf R and like any space I can get in the wheel wells. 02 seems a bit quieter on paved roads. Mid-turn, I can understand the vague feel comment, but once hooked to finish the turn, I feel the Conti has a bit more positive bite which helps my car feel neutral in the turns with a bit less push. Braking seems as strong with the Conti's as the 4S's and have yet to get too much aggressive driving in the rain. Thinking the slightly wider grooves on the Conti's may inspire a little more confidence against hydroplaning but we shall see.
