A dual purpose tire that has caught my attention recently is the Bridgestone s007a. It is not as race-focused and loud as RE71R but still considered more race focused than PS4S. It should wear much more evenly than the PS4S due to stiffer sidewall and have about equal dry grip according to most forum discussions. They are also cheaper than the ps4s by quite a bit.
One thing I also noticed is that the M850i with these tires in 245/275 setup ran a faster time than the M5 on 275/285 tires, at same track with same driver Randy Pobst. That shows the tires are at least grippier than the P Zero on the M5!
