Michelin is about to release the Pilot Sport 5!

Wonder how long it'll take these to come to market??

Probably not soon enough to be mounted on the new wheels I've got coming next month...guess I'll have to settle for the [now old] PS4S

Did they have a pilot sport 4? Seems they're following the iPhone naming convention now.

Is this a joke? Or do you mean Pilot Sport 4s vs Pilot Sport4? if so then yes they did have a PS4 IIRC.

Not a joke. I didn't know they had a pilot sport 4. I only know of the PSS and the PS4S.

A successor to the PS4S has not been announced, yet.

Good catch. The article I linked above didn't get to this level of nitty gritty (and it's understandably confusing bc the nomenclature is so damn confusing)

"It's important to note that while Michelin has unveiled a Pilot Sport 5, it hasn't come out with a replacement for the even higher-performance and arguably more important Pilot Sport 4S—the successor to the magnificent Pilot Super Sport. But seeing as how that tire has been around for nearly 5 years now, we suspect a 5-badged variant will come soon."

Even thedrive is confusing this info by using 4s and 5s to mean plural 4 & 5! Seems like it’s time for some Michelin tire model name changes…

The PS5 is the replacement to the PS4, a more vanilla tire than the PS4s

The successor to the PS4s is presumably the PS5s but has not been announced.

Bro, that's precisely why I'm getting out of my 513Ms and into some proper 19s. The tire selection in 18x9 and 18x10 is abysmal.

My new Vorsteiner VFF107s are 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 so I'm able to get 275 and 305 PS4S. I'm cautiously optimistic that'll allow me to finally put some power down (in BM3 stage 2 93 oct)
