Have to say these ASY 3's are lush, I feel like i'm in a different car, one that rolls faster and corners better. It just feels like they gel with the car.

Can't wait till I get an alignment next week :D

Costco also tend to be competitive on pricing of Michelin tyres. Especially at the moment when they have a £50 off offer if you buy 4.

PSS are SAAAAAVAGE! So much grip its insane. swapped the rears from Dunlop sports maxx as thats the crap that was on it and the diffeence is ridiculous. before i was going round bends and the back was coming out and i i was thinking it was me trying to get to know the charecteristics of the car but it was the shitty tyres.

thought F1's where good but this is another league.

So Camskill sadly didn't have enough Asy 3s to meet demand so back to the drawing board :(

Now I'm tempted by the Michelin PSS, although there was some talk of their replacements being released in Jan 2017:

Anyone know anything about these beyond the obvious? Likely price and release date?

PS4s only in certain sizes in 19.

I'd go for Pilot Sport 4.

They are brilliant. Love them on mine. You simply do not need more tyre for the road.

Quite easy to spin the wheels.
Diesel torque, poor tarmac, cold and wet. Not an indication of tyres really.
