Michelin PS4
Two questions on tires for a 2002 Z06.
I have heard that Michelin has come out with a PS4 tire. I was going to buy PS2 tires but I can't find anything on the web about these PS4's even on the Michelin site. Anybody know anything about these?
I also would like to know if there is any reason I can't can't go 305's on the rear instead of the factory 295's. i have lowered the car but just on the stock bolts and not even as far as those could go.
Thanks for the help.

Haven't heard anything about PS4's, and nothing wrong with 305's in the rear...except that they don't make PS2's in a 305. If they did, I would have went with them instead of the 295 as well.

I have the 315/30/18s with 265/40 fronts, they were on the car when I purchased it. No TC issues but the sidewall is shorter on the rears. Had the car for 6+ months and actually just noticed it the other day and now it bothers me, lol.

I'm by no means an expert, but I do work for Michelin. I have seen advertisements on a PS3. I believe that it is going to be released in Europe first and then in North America in 2011. But I haven't seen any PS4 advertisements.
