Finally got the rear Michelins, have waited a very long time for these . Twice I had written to Michelin and they did'nt know when they would become available, and they are dated 6/21 so brand new.

I want a set of pilot sports and have had the same sourcing issues. How did you get them as I still can’t find them online

Hi @Martin Sullivan Depending on your sizes, I have used Black Circles for sometime now. I bought the fronts 225x45x17 just before the first lockdown. Then when I went for the rears 245x40x17 they were nowhere to be seen untill now ( Brexit , Covid , Suez Canal ) who knows.
Good luck.

I got my set from Bathwick tyres, I am on 18” though. They have transformed the ride and handling well worth the money.

Michelin own Blackcircles so one would expect a good selection of tyres, seems it's not the case at the moment. I've dropped pilot sport 4's for Cup sports basically the next tyre up which is an entry track tyre.

Nice choice of tires. How much did you pay for a set? I am torn between that and the Continental tires I was checking out on 4wheelonline.

Hi @Reverie27 . It won't help you any what I paid as online tyres change price all the time, go for what price and preference suits you. They were purchased quite a few months apart and they are different sizes so prices were all over the place.

Ive just put on a set of Michelin PS5 tyres for the 2.8. They are awesome and if anything have too much grip!!
