Looking forward for the new sizes to come malaysia next month.

if it is replacing the PS3... then maybe our neighbour will produce 15" size also...
just really hopefully either PS3 or PS4 will be available during my next change within 1~2 months time...

Driving a Pug 208 which stock tyres are Michelin XM2 195/55r16. Found out that Michelin Malaysia doesn't stock my tyre after bursting it trying to avoid a rock... so now looking for alternatives. Dealer suggested 205/55r16 but it doesn't fit into the spare wheel well in the boot. Any suggestions for other tyre brands?

can get falken for this size.bridgestone turanza and achiles atr sport and neuton

Something more confusing :

http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Article/Miche...ess-Release.htm

From the article, there won't be successor for PSS soon and most likely shall be succeeded by pilot sport cup 2.

It says this new PS4S is the replacement for the PSS, just that they are now making the name more uniform hence they drop the Super Sport name.

Hardly found this PS4 yet.. price still sky rocket now..

how much did you get quoted for? i was told its rm 400 a piece for 16"

Is it recommended? price different is around RM30-40 for size of 215/45R17

i have checked over the weekend

245/40/18 RM1k each
225/45/18 RM800 each

Treadwear 320
Traction A
Temp A

Quite an ok treadwear..

confirm no 15?

Any pricing indication on the 17". would luv to try this new shoes
Heard that it will be launching in 2 weeks.
Anyone selling this now?

Sizes and RRP on Michelin's website

http://www.michelin.com.my/MY/en/tires/pro...ilotsport4.html

Going by their RRP of my require size, i have to fork out Rm2920 for 4 new shoes.
That does not include B&A.
What are the market price, I'm thinking around minus 20% of the RRP.

Yeah at the moment about 15-20% off the RRP. My friend just bought a set for his car, size 225/40/18 for about rm800-850 per tire (the RRP is rm985).

They drop 15.

How can they do this to me. Whyyyyy

Maybe later more sizes will come...

eh I tot its ad fix like in the official web?

if you are at the stage where you NEED to change tyres, definitely you have to go with what's available in the market for your desired size. unless you can wait and see if manufacturer decides to make for your size. e.g. for me on 16", GY didn't make the Assym2 in my size, only for 17" and above and again for Assym3, and I do not want to change my rims.

for 15", I guess you could either stick to PS3, or go for RE003, Fleva V701, V12 Evo2, etc...

Most likely no 15" for ps4. Imo they will still keep the ps3 for the mid level mass market as for ps4 the pricing is between ps3 and pss. Slightly pricier than ps3. Btw they are replacing the pss with the new PS 4 S

http://www.bmwblog.com/2016/09/29/michelin...ris-motor-show/

Is PS3 EOL?

Do these come in 205/60 R16?

Nope. But they do have 205/55/16 which is >3% lesser than your base tire

Imo they will still keep producing the ps3 for the mid level mass market

For those who using PS3. Did you guys face peeling on the side wall?

Look at mine.. worse

I don't think it is restricted to the PS3. It can happen to any tyres too. I presume these are the front 2 tyres. Do the rear tyres show this as well?

I wonder how you drive your car until the tyres show this kind of pattern. My presumption is only the outer part of the tyre will show cracks or peeling when the car is subjected to hard cornering. But your tyres show cracks or peeling on the middle and inner side too. In other words, the pattern is uniform across the section of the tyre - the outer, middle and inner sides.

My tyres only show cracks or peeling at the outer side of the front two tyres with cornering at high speed. Little damage on the middle with no damage to the inner side.

The front tyres (heavy damage) :



The rear tyres (very minimal damage) :

All 4 tires having the same issue. Not just me but I had 2 other frens using PS3 facing the same issue.

What I know is I don't have this issue on potenza. I enjoy both tyres very much. I love the PS3 in wet the most. To my surprise my wife can feels the charateristic difference when I switch between a PS3 and potenza on her car.

price for ps4.surveyed from shah alam
215/45/17 rm 470
215/50/17 rm 550

That is weird if the peeling of the tyres is with 4 tyres front and back. If that is the case, the peeling is likely not due to cornering at high speed then but something else.

Last time my F1-D5 were much worse than that for the front and similar like that for the rear!

So now ps4 available here?

I m waiting very long to change my PS3. Already overdue.

Will check at Shah Alam.

Any other place for best price?

Why your PS3 profile is different from my PS3 profile?

Comparison test of the PS4 vs RE003:

http://www.zerotohundred.com/2016/tyre-tes...braking-slalom/

Detailed and thorough review. From the review it sounds like the Michelin PS4 may be the tyre of the year. Sounds unbeatable.

If that's the case I presume you must be doing quite a bit of drifting with your car. I thought I was already quite brutal or harsh with my high speed cornering that caused the damage to the front two tyres.

Yes, sounds very promising and definitely on my target list to consider for next time. But this review was just braking and slalom only, not yet full lap time attack, plus only against 1 tire (RE003). Later when it goes more comparisons with others like F1A3, CSC6, etc2., then it should reveal more if it's really the best.

Occasionally I push them but most of the time I drive slow2 only, already uncle driver leh.

AutoExpress UK review: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/accessories-t...-car-tyres-2016

Nice, thx for the reference.

plan to change to this next month.. any pros and cons?

Just bought 4 donut for size of 215/45R17 for RM 440 per donut. Cheap or not?

Considered OK since PS3 of that profile sells around RM380.

Michelin PS4? Can share the contact?

215/45/17 ps4 rm 425 latest price surveyed at bukit kemuning shah alam
previously surveyed js motorsport bukit rimau rm 470

Anyone has any idea where can I get PS4 245/45R18 ?

This post has been edited by amdxp: Nov 1 2016, 05:29 PM

425 including balancing alignment and gst??

not include gst.balacing included.

mine is RM 440 including GST.

If RM 425 + GST = RM 450.50

The location is in Kuantan. PM me for details.

Got this size 205/55R16?? But i prefer quiet tyres...

ps4 is not noisy though.but for quiet go for 3st better.

Ps4 is quieter than my stock

"Stock" would be Conti MC5, no?
That's good news to me as I intend to switch from MC5 to PS4.

got 215/55/17 pricing?

PS4 should be everything superior than MC5

PS4 215/50/17 quoted RM 650 per donut in Kota Kinabalu.

Michelin tayar harga haram, due to shipping I guess.

PS3 same size 575

if u trying shipping from peninsular maybe can save u like rm 100 per piece.tyre here are lot cheaper lol.

Can consider this.
But warranty wise...

ya..warranty wise is a problem.but michelin seldom have problem because of its quality.
furthermore,most tyre shop especially michelin centre can claim the tyre if have issue,but the problem is they lazy to do it because no money earn.this is what i heard from tyre shop.

225/40/18 - RM720 in klang ..

Using PS3 for my ride now. There are no sizes for 15" 195/50 or 195/55?

How about 205/40/17 for my other ride?

205/45/17 available, just checked fron thier tyre size list..
Smallest size is 205/50/16..

That's what I saw too from the PT list.. So sad.. My car can't use 205/45/17 cause will sagat if full load

205/55/16 RM 394.24 Incl GST
http://www.lazada.com.my/michelin-pilot-sp...51254.html?mp=1

boss, how much for 225 50 17

215 45 17 4pcs average 465 per pc, including balancing, alignment, chamber, air tube valve & gst.

Performance wise...dont feel any different than my previous mc5, mayb handling just slightly......better. Abit disappointed

what about noise compare with MC5?

You mean PS4 only slightly better than MC5??? Have you really pushed the tires hard, or just drive normal2 only like most people?? If just drive normal2 only then of course would not feel much difference.

not much different. im expecting will b significantly better, but somehow dont feel much different.

Like i said, comparing with my previous MC5. To compare of course i must drive normal, if not then how to compare? U mean just bcoz i change to PS4, i hav to drive like a track racer then??

Because PS4 is a high performance tire whereby the difference with mid level MC5 is mainly in the performance level. So in order to analyse if the PS4 really delivers its supposedly higher performance level, then you can only know that if you push the tires harder or else the difference will not by much noticeable. Or later if you got into an emergency situation (knock wood won't happen ya) then you'd notice the difference. Probably just noise, comfort level, and later durability are the criteria that you can compare if just normal drive but that's not the main aspect of a tire like PS4. That's why when reputable journalists provide reviews on such tires, they push to the limits with measurements and therefore can then see the real difference.

the extra you've paid only shows during extreme conditions, for eg heavy rain cruising or high speed emergency braking in wet, that's where you'll see the differences.

i've learned to appreciate good tire engineering and technologies during a long trip which it was pouring really heavily, my car feels really planted eventhough i'm travelling at a relatively higher speed compared to other cars on the road, there are a few cars fishtailed in corner, some aquaplaned. even my mom who knows nothing about cars was impressed

if you pot around town at 40-60kmh in dry, most tires will sound/feel the same, you might as well go for comfort based GT tires instead of UHP ones

quite agree with u..normal driving only,if u use goodyear excellence,achiles 2233,rovelo etc might feel not much difference with expensive uhp tyres.

Believe it or not I started to avoid Michelin as their tires are more prone to screws or nails

How could you come to such conclusion??

Your bad luck claim the tyre?

just because of luck man..there are so many users with good/positive feedback.

That's why I said believe it or not. And I never said that tire is bad either. 1 year more than 10 times kena nail. As soon as I change tire never kena..talk about bad luck 🙄
It's physic bro.

I use ps1 from beginning.

After ps1 change to PS3.

Now ps4

Not even a nail or puncture with whatever before.

I don't even said that I m lucky.

Yeah you are right it's the PS series that much more prone to nails

bro may i know which shop?

someone is jealous of ur michelin tyres

As suspected, still non conclusive evidence so we take it as just your bad luck, nothing to do with the tires.
He actually said he has been suing the PS series since the first version and contrary to you, NEVER get punctured. I've also used Michelin;s PS series before and did not get punctured often or even once if I recall.
