MPS4S?

Costco hadn't even heard of them 10 days ago.

Call your local Costco and ask. It's not posted online. Those were ordered by the manager a week ago.

Ordered 265/35/19 and 285/35/19 at Costco to take advantage of the coupon, they arrive in a few days. A little over 1200 out the door.

I've had my MPS4S for about a week now and have put around 400 miles on them. They are superior to my old MPSS in all categories but one I was surprised is how much more dry traction I seem to be getting. I would spin my MPSS 285s in 3rd like they were nothing and that doesn't happen on the 295 MPS4S.

I have them on my ZCP all tho on aftermarket 20s and Swift springs. They seem a little better than the MPSS in all categories. Comfort, NVH, turn-in, side to side grip, and strait line performance. I have not driven them in the rain yet.

In terms of grip with these are you still getting wheel spin with them in 1st and 2nd?

STG2 E30 mix. Most powerful OTS tune they offer I believe.

I have not really floored my car in those gears yet. Not something I do often. But I would guess they would spin as I'm probably making over 500tq . I would spin in 2nd on my 305 RE11 on my 15 w/ JB4 Map2 E30 mix.

domino_z · 03-13-2017, 05:25 PM

Dmk can you post some pics, keen to see how the 295 looks

Oh wow 500TQ! Is that just from the tune or any bolt ons or other mods too?

Rhedrick17 · 03-13-2017, 09:08 PM

Can anyone give insight to how these stack up vs yokohama AD08R?

NorCal f80 · 03-14-2017, 12:20 PM

AD08R is a little grippier than a PSS/PS4S but trades that dry grip for wet grip and a worse ride quality. It's actually more of a MPSC2 competitor -or a middle ground between the two.

I imagine these tires are just now getting broken in. So the grip should be better now, than when first installed.

Also were your last PSS Bmw star rated?

I feel Michelin does not really have a tire to compete in the "Summer Extreme Performance" category (AD08R, RE71R, RS-4, g-Force Rival, F1 Supercar, etc...).

The PSC2 is more of an R-compound, meaning primarily designed for the track but still street-able. Whereas the AD08R is primarily designed as a street tire.

I joined the PS4S club today. They will arrive this Friday but I'm not sure if I want to mount them before or after my track event next month.
