The king has been de-throned!

BTW, why does he keep referring to it as the BMW Supra?

adamkb26 · 02-26-2022, 06:12 PM

PS5S is coming out though…

russell21 · 02-26-2022, 06:13 PM

I live in Florida and wet roads are a every day thing i'm sticking to the Michelins

Edwardsc1 · 02-26-2022, 06:20 PM

That's great and all, but I've got Michelins on my M3, and I'll be putting another set on when these wear out.

swagon · 02-26-2022, 06:21 PM

Very satisfied with my GY F1 Supersports.

Thanks folks

Only Michelin PS4s. All others last very short if You drive enthusistically

DanG · 02-26-2022, 07:00 PM

I am sticking with my Michelin PS4Ss.

I doubt you've tried the Sport Contact 7s so perhaps the outcome is correct. The Sport Contact 7s have a 17% increase in service life vs the Sport Contact 6...that's significant on an already good tire.

Until the PS5 comes out...lol

ScullyD · 02-26-2022, 07:04 PM

All my experiences with the Conti 6s, they were so bad for ride quality that there is just no way I'd buy the 7s until I see more and more tests that say it's a big difference.

I just took Conti 6s off my X4MC and put on Michelin All Season 4s, and they blow them away in the DRY!

Yeah I've heard these are good, Lotus chose them as the tire for the Emira, and I believe some 992 GT3s have been coming with them too.

I've tried to love Conti and Pirelli over the years but they've never delivered completely, and I'm never disappointed with Michelin.

You're right. The GT3 has got the Supersport R, which is a step above the base version. https://news.goodyear.eu/goodyear-ea...rsche-911-gt3/

The Conti SC7 is pretty impressive, but I'll have to wait for others to report how soon they start to howl. The PS4S has plenty of grip and wet traction without getting loud too early, which is a Conti calling card (and the old PSS was the same).

You already know....

It's a BMW skinned as a Toyota.

Wes335XI · 02-26-2022, 07:43 PM

It's about time. I've always wondered why so many people go for Michelin. Every Michelin tire I've owned has been a joke.

Continental has never let me down. And they last a long time. Good to see they are at the top!
