I'm struggling a little with your comments. Based on what I've ready, I'm reasonable sure the PS4 A/S is an excellent tire in its class, but I've seen no direct objective comparison test between it and the Indy 500. I would argue the FiST's party trick is turn in. Here's what tire rack said about the Indy 500 in their last review of it.
With ultra-quick steering response and an authoritative front end, small inputs were all that was required to dive down to the apex, and strong lateral grip made it easy to hold the intended line
Seems to describe a nice match to me. Read hard-core enthusiast feelings about the tire, they're consistently very positive. Regarding the responsiveness, etc. I suspect this characteristic is due to the Indy 500's massive tread blocks. They've actually raised the price of the tire and I suspect that's due to demand/reputation. Clearly this makes its value proposition a little less convincing in the past. That said, the turn in response is really good. I don't think there's a direct alternative in 205/40/17. In 205/45/16 I could see considering the Conti ECS, but even though it's an overall better tire, I'd hate to risk losing the turn in. The Indy 500 is really freaking good and reminds me of a 200tw tire... Take a look at the tread blocks in the PS4 A/S. No matter how good the several year newer compound is, I can't see how there wouldn't be more tread squirm, less response with the PS4 A/S.
