My PR4s are about 90% done and still grip like nothing else I've tried, both wet and dry. These are the first tyre I've ever lost the chicken strips on (without even trying).
I'll need another rear in a month or two and my mechanic wants me to try a Pirelli Angel GT. I'm told similar life to the PR4s, if not longer, with almost as good wet grip (should be enough). And the stiffer side wall is supposed to give a better feel even on lighter bikes than they are primarily aimed at.
I put the PR4s on because of massive tar bleed on my daily commute. Be interesting to see how the GTs handle it.
