Default Out with the old, in with the Michelin 4S

Just swapped out my Sumitomo's fo Michelin 4S. Totally transforms the car.

Smoother ride and predictable handling. Will learn more as I get these broken in, but the difference is huge.

Some of it is the deeper tread, but the Sumis were not totally worn out. Car feels more compliant (less harsh), but I still get to feel what the car is doing in the wheel and seat.

Good to hear. I'm thinking of swapping out the old PS2s that came on my car for 4S as Costco has a Michelin deal going at the moment.

I swapped my 7 year old perfect condition PS2 for Cup 2 Connect earlier this year. Most important “upgrade” for any car.

Went from P2’s to 4S on my 964 and 996 both. The P2’s were worn out in both cases. Been very pleased.
