Default Poll: Special Order MPSS 325/19-30 fitment for .2 GT3 RS

there is a *slim* chance that we can obtain a "special order" of the MPSS in 325/19-30 in-advance of its general production/introduction 1H CY2012.

I dont know how much they will cost, or if we can pull this off, but the more of "you" .2 GT3 RS owners that express interest/intent to participate in such a special order the more likely it is that it will happen.

I am not promising ... just gauging the potential interest so I can make the case for this, or not...

pls vote accordingly

With matching fronts in 245 or more, I'll take a couple of sets. Thanks!

If they are more then the 1HCY2012 ones I'd just wait because I have OK tires, but for those running out of their MPSC it's probably worth a bit more to get the ASAP.

You are going to need the MPSS for the OLOA

Default MPSS

I should qualify that I only voted to wait because I have a set of Trofeo's stored away. After those go I intend to try the MPSS for my .2 3RS if available in correct size.

I think the idea is to gain some inertia. To get Michelin to offer an early production. So if you might buy them, then click yes. I don't read this as a commitment. And if it were, I'll buy yours if you don't want them!!

I'm in the same boat. My Corsas are still ok, but next year I will need new tires. It wouldn't make sense for me to pay extra/pre-order when I don't need them now, but if it helps to decide whether or not to produce them at all...

SORRY! ... I forgot.

The fitment will be produced but if we get "enough" interest we might get the special order early!

Larry....I didn't hit das button......only because I just got the MPSCs in July. (Earliest I'd be looking again might be March). Well, also depends on the price for a pair of the rears.........(any ballpark on that)?

I think the poll would have been much higher a few months back when a bunch of folks were looking for the alternative, so for Michelin sure no-doubt people are gonna want them........like miself. (So slap me down for a YES, just not in the next 3 months)

looks like we dont have enough for a special order, so you guys will just have to wait for the offical release next year...
