Over a grand for a set of 4 :surprised: :surprised:

I'd want the tyres to enable me to be Sebastien Vettel and suck me off afterwards for that :laugh: (the tyres not Vettel)

Phew....  :scared: but unless youve got an 18" girth i doubt the tyre will give much gratification!

Its not a bad price for 19s - I paid around that for ps2's in the same fitment about a month ago, the price for 265 35 19 will make you wince

though that website looks a little dubious, Ive searched the internet for these and none of the big sellers (tyre pneus/mytyres/camskill/blackcircles) are stocking them yet so it makes me wander how these chaps have got them in when their website looks like its from 1990s  :confused:

well i ordered the tyres about noon, and just got a mail with this:

might be a set of PS2's in the post  to you lol.  Keen to see how these tyres are actually.  they dont do them in fitment for the little vRS ive ordered :stupid: come to think of it, alot of tyres arent available in the size i need. 
205/40R17 or 215/40 R17.  Might be a wheel swap in order i think to a 7.5" rim for some better tyre availability

The Michelin Pilot super sports are now available from your local Costco  :happy2:

My nearest one (Chester) fitted a set to a Focus RS at the weekend, sounds expensive!
