The grip difference is minimal, most people would never be able to tell the difference if you gave them different tyres on the same car - Only if you were to REALLY push on a track etc would you be able to tell, and to be honest you really shouldn't be driving on the limit on the roads anyway as with the added risk of Diesel, obstacles, cyclists, horses, animals & people you're going to crash whatever tyres you have on.

I do agree to an extent. But the fact is you push those limits up the better your tire, brakes and suspension are.
