Both ways have pluses and minuses. But I am grinning more when I drive lately.

Nobody can argue that PS2s are not superior to the Bridgestone RFTs.
But, off the track, the difference is so marginal that I think you'd be fooling yourself if you could tell an appreciable difference.
Personally, I'm not a fan of plugging tires or the mobility kits as anything more than a stopgap - in other words, the tire is going to be replaced.
I think tire insurance depends on the term and cost. Mine cost me the equivalent of two tires - no brainer for me.
But the real benefit of RFTs (especially for those that live in extreme climates and also have family) is that when a flat occurs, your rims are safe AND you can just drive to have the tire fixed/replaced after work.
