I got the PSS 17g miles fronts so far amazing how much depth still remains, and rears still have room to go, all even wear, no flats, still appear running smoothly no vibration.

BTW have had Contis a few times, worse tire on the road! Wouldn't want them if they were free.

Yeah, from a marketing standpoint, if the car can't do what they say it can do because they switched tires, they can be in some pretty hot water.

Posting a NR lap time as marketing material is pretty specific. Those tires would have to be not a sec off of the PSS to keep that statement accurate.

Not sure what you're saying. I don't see anywhere on the site that they say PSS? If they DO advertise the M3 and M4 coming with PSS< let me know, because I want to insist on them!

AND, someone on another post said that this size/type of PSS has been discontinued by Michilin. Is that true?

I think they had to add a second supplier. I got a PSS replaced this week and it took 4 days to get one so Michelin is having some kind of supply issue

Curious, which continentals did you own and why did you hate them?
