I've been running Michelin PS4S in 245/35/19 on a set of OEM 19x8.5 FK2 wheels that I kept from my previous MY18 FK8. Would love to run the BBS 20" all the time but where I live is pothole city so they only go on for special occasions. The PS4S are nearly 6 years old and feel as though they're losing grip. Looking at replacing them with something a bit grippier.
Use case :
- Weekend spirited street driving, maybe 1000 miles per year
- Maybe the occasional track day but at most once per year
- It gets to below freezing where I live but the car is in a garage and I'd always be driving during the day when it was above 10C (50F)
- Never driven in the rain
The cost of the RE-71RS is $AUD495 and the Cup 2 Connect are $AUD650. The Cup 2 are 240 treadwear, seem to be the better fit for my use case and are a lighter tyre but cost more. The RE-71RS gets rave reviews but being 200 treadwear are more track focused than street.
