Getting new Michelin 4S tires! Finally!

Takumi587 · 06-08-2017, 01:18 AM

Going to be replacing my Goodyear LS2s with some Michelin 4S tires. Never loved the Run flats... will post feedback on switch after a couple hundred miles but just very excited to see if there will be a difference in road feel. =)

Be aware you will be getting some new road noise as they are new tires--- for the first little while.

But, you should love the difference.

New tires should ALWAYS be quieter than old. worn tires.

Just put Michelin Pilot A/S 3+'s on my F10 2 weeks ago. Highly recommended. I had Hankook V12's before which weren't too bad either for the money.

I've said it one too many times, life's too short to be riding on run flat tires (or waiting for them to wear out).

I have pretty good idea what it will look like, but still, looking forward to read your impressions once you report back.

love michelin pilot line of tires

had ps ps2 and pss on my old e39, as well as pss on my f10

also had some dunlops and conti's in between on e39 along with hankooks on my f10, and i keep coming back to michelin Pilots!

they are pricey, but worth the price differential imho...
