Sure, but for me the PSS sucked since the sidewall folder under all the time...what is the maximum load capacity available for PSS, I think I picked up the wrong ones intended for lighter cars..

They do have an extra load version (what I have) 245/40/17XL is rated at 1521lbs. 225/45/17XL is 1477lbs.
Not sure what sizes come in standard load

You have all that motor work done and you're only running a K04? Mind blown!

Reliability is the key word here and what would I do with more power on a Fwd car anyway ?

Going to agree with this. Plus have you seen some of the tunes out there for KO4's now? There's a guy running a UM E85 tune making 385awhp on his Golf R. Granted that's a dynojet, but that's still pretty damn solid haha. Minimal lag and more torque than most big turbos too which is fun on the street.

I found that Advan Neova AD08R at 235/40/R18 is way better the Michelin PSS at the same size thanks to a much stiffer sidewall and wider contact patch. Will purchase the same tires again for sure.

The RE-71R's are the street tire to have right now.
