XM2, CC5 & AR10 all can't compare to PS3's performance when it comes to dry & wet weather handling. These three tyres are just normal replacement tyres. When it comes to spirited driving, they can't perform as well as PS3. Safety as well. But please be prepared to pay premium price for PS3 due to it's legandary status. Or you can consider Goodyear F1 Series or Hankook V8 / V12. Just as good for cheaper price.
Would recommend to get Hankook from Tek Ming. They even lower the price if you trade-in your old tyres.

Hankook is Made in Korea. For tyre price list & shop details, you can refer to the one on Lowyat or Autoworld. I personally use Hankook because it's value for money with performance almost as good as Michelin with no premium price.

I've used Hankook Ventus V12, Eagle F1 Directional 5 and just bought a set of PS3 yesterday. By the looks of it, the PS3 seems to be the best one so far but the V12 is the most bang for buck tire ever! Grip wise the V12 would lag behind by 10% or so, wet grip pretty good, sidewall kinda soft so response slower than the F1 and PS3 but DAMN is that thing cheap! PS3 i bought RM288 a piece, V12 only at RM205 a piece. More than RM200 savings if you get the V12 compared to the PS3 and thats what i call value for money
