Default Successor to PS4S tires coming soon...

Sounds very exciting. My PS4S tires still have a lot of tread left, but this will be definitely my next tire in 2 - 3 years. Michelin upped their game again especially with the handling response and the outer shoulder design.

Has anyone seen these new tires available anywhere yet? I have checked discount tire & tire rack. These were supposed to be available March of this year.

The Pilot Sport 5 S is not even listed yet on Michelin's website. https://www.michelinman.com/auto/bro...formance-sport

I noticed it took about a year for the All Season 4 to come out in RCF sizes. I wouldn't try to hold out for the PS5S if you need tires soon, since it may realistically be a while before they are widely available.

I have 35K miles on the original tires that came with the car. There is some tread left. But, I've noticed a little bit of cupping on the tread since rotating is not an option. replacement will be soon

Yeah, saw this review. Continental was the best tire it seems.

MIchelin is focusing on OEMs with the PS5S for now.

Once that is all ironed out then they will work on other sizes for the general public.
