Tire Comparison - Soft vs Stif Sidewalls

My current Pirelli P4 isn't even halfway done yet at 13K+ miles.... still looks new .... and I have to send my rear rim out for chroming but when it gets back I want to put a new CT on it. (I still have the spare rim with the Pirelli on the bike now).
I wanted to know if anyone has had experience with soft sidewalls vs stiff sidewalls. The Pirelli is a stiff sidewall tire like the HE, GYTT, Grabber... etc.
