Suggestions on New Tires

Thanks for the information everyone, I just wanted to make sure they were the standard tires before back. I did my research here and told them about the correct TPC spec for the car before ordering. He either forgot, or the warehouse sent the incorrect tires.

Yes, it is a PP so the 285 is correct. I did not know about the V club discount and will join and talk to them about that discount.

Is there a coupon or link to the additional 10% from Michelin?

285 is only correct if you have Cup2R tires. Precision pack cars with the PS4s use the same TPC spec and size (275 front) as all other blackwings.

That’s what we found out. The installer called his Michelin rep and got the correct numbers for the TPC front and rear. Michelin had the standard PS4S listed on their website for a 2026 5BW with PP. The rep said there was no 285 TPC so they are ordering the correct rear, and 275 on the front. I’m more interested in the quieter foam insert for the street than a marginally wider tire. Thank you again for the help and information everyone.

The TPC has a significant amount of Cup2 compound blended into the outer tread blocks too. The TPC rear has the inner rim guard removed to give that tiny amount of extra clearance.

It's unfortunate they're only available in the stock sizes, I went with regular PS4s when I went wider.
