"What does SS stand for?"
SuperSpark.

Unrelated, swapped over from factory spec Bridgestone Potenza RE050A AM2s that were strictly a summer tire to a set of four Continental ExtremeContact DWS06+ UHP all-season tires (245/40ZR19-285/35ZR19 99Y). My god, they're so much quieter and way more comfortable, the car went from the ride quality of an 85 Corvette to a Bentley. Still nice and sticky for some spirited driving, and given our city's tendency to have silly temperature swings, an UHP all-season is way more usable for a sports GT that is driven regularly than summer tires that are more compromised at low temperatures.
