I've got 10.5K miles on the stock Corsa tires, so its time to get a new set. I have been generally quite happy with the Corsa AR tires and the way they make the car feel and handle. I would not hesitate to get them again. But changing tires every 8-11K miles seems a bit wasteful. I don't track the car but love to drive hard whenever I find any open back roads or some twisties. Drag racing, burnouts or donuts is not my thing. I do like brisk acceleration from traffic lights, though 
I really just want to get the opinions of those that have switched to MPS4S (255 front and 295 rear). How do you feel about the switch? Does the car's handling degrade in any way? Does it feel bumpier or more squishy? How does it feel in high-speed cornering or twisties?
For reference, I've had Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires on prior cars (911 4S and BMW M3). I was not overly impressed by either their performance or their wear. I replaced MPSS sets on both cars around 15-18K miles. But everyone swears by the MPS4S tires and they are a big improvement over MPSS - hence the question.
