Michelin PS AS
Are these good tires?
The reason I ask is that Tire Rack is currently out of stock on Continental Contisport 2's in a 305/25 - 20 and they're figuring they won't get any in for 2-3 weeks. My car should be done in a week or so and these Michelins are available immediately. Only thing is the Michelins are 295/25 - 20
WHat should I do, wait or get the PS AS?

I have a set of Michelins PS AS on my 2003 Vert. I like them. I had a 2000 with Goodyears and the noise drove me nuts. The Michelins are quiet, and they seem to handle my driving habits , I have not had them in rain or snow. I live in AZ and the seller who lived in Idaho put them on when I bought the car. I only have about 2,000 miles on them so far but for now.....they are doing fine by me.

I love my michlen PS AS i have 10,000 miles on them and you cant even tell they been on the car. the road noise and the rough ride is gone that the junk emt goodyears had now you can here the radio while you are driving and if you get caught out in the rain you dont have to worry about slideing into the car in front of you while you are trying to stop.
I give them a 9 out of a 10 rateing for everything

That's awesome. That's what I wanted to hear. I went ahead and had them ordered. It'll end up costing me about $144 more than the Continentals but I won't have to wait 3 wks. Absolutely ridiculous for a manufacturer to not have any production plans for a product they could easily have a monopoly over.
Thanks for the info guys!

I have Michelin PS AS ZPs. Love them for all the reasons stated above
1. Quiet
2. Great treadwear
3. Better handling/driveability than OEM
4. Great price through Tire Rack

What about the PS2's?? I've heard alot of good things about them, I'm thinking of getting these after the runcraps die even though they are not runflats.

Instead of wasting your time wondering why people are different than you... dance in the glory of all the freedoms we have - and the right to be different from ones neighbor.

That will indeed be your loss. If you can't seperate the two, then there's not much I can say.
