If it's any consolation, after what I've experienced with the RR I would not hesitate to put a set of PROs on a daily driver for the summer. They have incredible grip for the price, I and a couple of friends have been able to remain competitive on the RR. I would assume from the RR they will have good cold grip, making them good in the wet as long as you don't go through puddles.
I’ve been a Federal fan for a few years now. Downfall of the RR’s was the road noise, the Pro has fixed that. Can’t wait to hit the track this year with them.
I like them for the price. Grip is great and noise is definitely less than the RS-RRs. They are certainly not RE71s or Rivals but I can buy two sets for the price of top tier. They also run wide as hell. They also wear like iron. Same as the RS-RR.
Buy the cleanest one with the least deferred maintenance, oh and Michelins, you can't go wrong buying a car with Michelins on it.

I drove pretty regularly all winter. It was getting to the point that the stock summer Bridgestones were getting scary in the cold and wet with very little grip. So, in that respect it was a huge improvement in cold weather handling. If we're comparing ideal condition, yeah the winters do not perform nearly as well. The turn in isn't quite as sharp and responsive, there's less steering feedback, and the limits of grip were lower, which was especially noticeable under hard braking. Still, this car is intended to be my primary form of transportation and I didn't want to stop driving it just because it was cold or raining. So, while it was a bit of a handling detriment compared to ideal conditions, it still had plenty of grip for the street and still put a smile on my face every time I got behind the wheel.
I have Michelin Pilot Super Sports 245x45x17 on all corners. Love them! Quite, good handling (I also have Koni Adjustable all around).
I am on my second set of Michelin Energy summer tires from Costco - they are H-rated 175/65-15s made in Germany and meant for the base Mini. They have the BMW star on the sidewall.
So unfortunately my Macan needed new tires...Excellent service, not a single scratch or mark on the wheels, perfectly balanced, on time and as promised, bill had all information including warranty, even to what spec they torqued the wheels bolts, yes, to Porsche specification which is 110 ftlb, tire pressure sport on. I was also very impressed about the friendliness of the staff, they all were knowledgeable, no pressure. Needless to say I may try them again going forward.
I'm about to purchase a 2014 class A that has about 51k miles..original Michelin XZA3 date code 3813 so about 5 years old they look in really good shape although I'm getting an independent inspection on Wed.
