got to work today and had a flat :( blew it up but the tyre place next to me said I need a new one (no surprise).

I would like Michelins, I have had Pilot Sport 2 before, are the newer ones Pilot Sport 4S ?

I have Pirelli P-zero on the car at the moment, I don't want to replace them so will I have to match both rears, I don't really want one Michelin and 3 Pirellis!

also can anyone recommend decent tyre places in South Wales who won't wreck my car in the process....
 
Same axle should have the same tyre AFAIK :dont know:

If you have a 4WD car then all 4 should be the same :thumb:
 
only 2wd, so would have to change both rears... having just spent nearly 1500 quid the other week on coolant pipes and other stuff, I don't fancy coughing up another 500 when both rears have plenty of tread left! just one has a big nail in it... so might stick another pzero on for now (even though they are horrible) :?:
 
nail in the shoulder, and it had been driven on while (very) low for a few miles, not fast but still looked a bit brown, they said it was bubbling on the inside (where I can't see conveniently).
either way I don't think I would risk it!
 
What size is it :?

Someone on here may have one lying around :thumb:
 
295 30 R19 - Pirelli P-zero - I would buy a spare wheel with a tyre on if someone had one! good thinking, I did browse the classifieds but couldn't see anything obvious...
