I'm a huge fan of the MPSS tyre so I'm hoping for great things from the new MPS4S tyre.

GoodYear Eagle F1 Assym.2
Great in the dry, excellent in the wet, and seems to be wearing a lot slower then Michelin PSS or PZero.

I've got these, they are very good
I think they're on version 3 now

i had them on a s3 i thought the compound and the side walls were among the worst premium quality tyre i had driven , you could not get them to a pressure that give you a confidence through the fast twisty roads. they are good for comfort but hard driving with fast direction changes no.
i think i will end up seeing over 12k out of my current mpss which is good for the abuse i give them.
better than the continental contact 5's the previous owner had on. i used 5 mm of rubber in about 3000 miles

I've found the first place that seem to be selling the new Michelin PS4S but they are £269 each plus fitting
Anyone got link or knowledge of any deals going?

What size? I got a set for my 20's at much less than that from Pneus. Oponeo had them as well.
When I got them last month 255/35R20 were £154 each plus VAT with free delivery for 2 or more.

Interesting. Pneus seem to price the 4S at less than the SS, but don't have that size in the 4S.

if you a member of costco try them they buy direct so cut out the wholesalers and uk distributors and often get good rates or they used to
