FINALLY bought brand new TYRES!

[Khalid]

so, hey everyone, i would like to thank Northern Rider for his help and support about choosing good performance tyres related to traction, handling and grip. I have finally bought my Michelin Pilot Super Sports and have been trying it for an hour, they are just superior and GRIPPY!
The Size is 245/45 ZR 18 for all 4 sides, they are really amazing, Much better than the continentals that i used to have.

Those are great tires, personally I'm a fan of the Continental Extremecontact DWS but you can't go wrong with the ones you purchased.

Those are the ones I put on my Mazda Speed3. The C has Yokohama YK-520 255/55x18.

Almost any tire is going to be an improvement over the stock Continental tires. I hated those things.

Yep Northern rider knows he's stuff.

but guys, i was suffering with those tires, i was never able to make any 0-100 timings due to the worst grip ever, but now with Michelins PSS, i think i will need a new budget for some gas

[Northern Rider]

Glad you like the PSS's, Khalid. They are the grippiest street tire that I have ever used.

A couple of things to keep in mind -

First - super sticky tires also wear out faster than others;

Second - keep a close watch on your tire pressures. Keep them above 35 psi at all times for street driving.

Enjoy!

Glad I had the dealer take 'em off and put the GYs on. They lasted 46K.

i have a little question over here, is michelin a french company or a U.S company? coz the tires that i bought are made in france. Any idea?
