Covered about 5K in my PS4s now and they're not wearing that well  :grin:  I don't care though.  I don't buy tyres for lifespan.

Seriously good tyres.  I'll go for them again next time if there isn't a replacement super sport by then.

The replacement has just been announced... the Pilot Sport 4 S..... but only in 19" and 20" varieties.....

I picked up a spare pair of PS4s for less than £130 on Wednesday... can live in my shed until needed for that price

New. Super special one off price from a mate in a major chain garage.... I think they actually make a loss on the sale... Couldn't pass them up though

Me too...but the reviews coming from UK look to be promising and worth a wait if we knew they were definitely coming here.

I have them on all 4 corners of my Ed. 30. I can't say they're bad for road use but I need to try different tyres to compare better. Not suited for track use, that's for sure... I have a pair of GY Asy 2 on my GT Sport and I like them a lot. Just the side wall isn't that stiff but that makes them more comfier and silent, which I prefer for the GT Sport.
