Swapped out the sticks and cleaned a sticking R1 tonight. Very pleased with the results.
Bought three sets of sticks because I couldn't decide. Ended up using the aluminum ones; they feel great.
Edit: After a night of using the aluminum XB1-style sticks I can't really recommend them. They're not bad, but my thumbs slip around on them too much. Precise aiming with them is a pain in the ass. So, I swapped in the DS4-style ones and so far they're great. Hopefully they'll hold up better than the original sticks.
That said, $40 is a damn good price, and I'd jump on that in a second if I needed another controller. The DS4 is a great controller, and its issues are easily and cheaply resolved (just test your earphones with it before you can't return it).

Not in my experience. I have a blue DS4 that was bought in September. Its thumbsticks have worn down to total smoothness (but haven't torn, which is something), and it has an additional issue where it creates interference/static with my noise-cancelling earphones plugged in to it.So are the issues resolved in the newer DS4s? Need a new pc controller and xbone/ds4s on sale on amazon for 39.99
