So as most of all you GP owners know our tire options are limited

(I like extreme to ultra high performance summer tires
The GP is my DD and I need a higher tread wear than r compounds have)

I currently have 215/40/18 BFGoodrich KDW 2's on...And I need to replace them
Well they've discontinued them in ALL SIZES FOREVER

So next I looked into the "Holy Grail" tire Michelin Pilot Super Sports PSS
Well in sizes 215/40/18 there are few and far between, Special Order Only

Got them shipped to CA, so I should have them mounted early next week!

 

215 and 225/40/18 are a little tall.
Why not a Michelin PSS in 205/40/18 (stock size)?

If you're sold on 215/40/18, also consider the
Conti ExtremeContact DW (light, comfortable, and great in the rain,
and no slouch in the dry) and the BFG G-Force Sport Comp-2 (heavier,
a little stiffer, good all around UHP tire).

 

Interesting about the Michelin PSS. I just searched on TireRack and the Michelin Pilot Super Sport 215/40-18 is in stock at $200 per tire and $70 rebate on four tires.

 

Yes in stock as we speak, but not in the future called 3 different tire shops all told me the same thing

 

Not wanting the DW's have had them before, DWS's on the MINI in snow actually
Yokohma S-drives, AD08's, BFGoodrich's, Hankook's, etc. etc.

Have tried many different tires just wanting some input from anyone out there who works for a tire shop.

The GP has a weird tire size

 

DW and DWS are completely different tires.
Former is a max performance summer tire and latter is an all season.

 

Got PSS's
Excited for them to come in
