View Full Test >>2021-11-04 - Hey there, is or will this tire be available in sizes for BMW M2Comp? That‘s 245/35 R19 and 265/35 R19.
I believe there is now a star marked PS4S for the M2 Comp, it was released with the M2 CS.
2023-08-05 - hi.. I did order 4x PS4s* for my bmw m340 but ran into an unexpected situation. My retailer was sent by michelin - 2x PS 4s* 225/40 R19 for the front axle - 2x pilot super sport * 255/35 R19 for the rear axle. i am a bit skeptical about the setup i was given. it is not what i ordered. but the retailer keeps insisting pss* is essentially the same as ps4s* .. i did ask them to write it down but they wouldnt.. shall i insist for them to provide the ps4s*...?
The PSS is definitely a different tire to the PS4S, even in * marking. I would expect quite a different level of grip in the wet, meaning your car would be more likely to oversteer in the winter. I would try and get the correct rear tires.
