Default PS2 Question...

What is the tread depth on a NEW PS2 tire please.

Also is there such a thing as "just" at Pilot Sport? (w/o the "2"), and if so, how is it identifiable?

Thanks

I thought new tires had a 10/32 tread depth but I could be wrong. I've only heard of PS2 never PS

I found used "Michelin Pilot Sport" tires that feature 6/32 tread, even all the way across. I'm trying to decide if they are worth buying or not, for less than $100.00

O.K. I don't know why I didn't look at Michelin's web site myself, (duh!). There IS a "Pilot Sport". AND a "Pilot Sport 2". The tires in question are Pilot Sports (only).

Tires for this car are beyond my reach. I need to find used.
