Tyre availability

[Not a Diesel!!!]

Just had a look as was thinking of replacing my front Michelin PS4s on my Megane with the same tyre to match the rears. Not desperate.

Seems like thin pickings on most premium tyres.

Has this been going on post covid?

Not needed Tyres for a while.

What size are you after? Sometimes switching to a far more common size is best.

235/35/19.
I think that is fairly well used on the larger hot hatches.

There are some on Ebay and Goodyears available. So can get if I want.

Just did not know if there was a shortage?

If it's anything like PS3's in 205/45/16 on 1*2's, there was an initial shortage in 2020 then seem to have come in waves since then, sometimes everywhere has them, sometimes hardly anywhere. Might be worth waiting a bit and seeing if stock appears if you're not desperate.

Pilot sport 5's are available now, so maybe they are phasing the PS4 out.

That’s a good shout actually, could only see PS5’s for my Dad’s car when I looked the other day.

Yeah was going to wait a bit see if they come back.

Depths are ok but a bit of cracking on the shoulders. So may have been worth changing going into winter.

Yeah I saw a youtube on that.

Could be right running down stock before launching PS5. But there were none of those either or normal PS4. Just Cup-2 and some all season tyre.

Camskill have both in stock, but PS5's were cheaper than PS4, which suggest the stock levels are getting low in PS4

Buy PS5's, cheaper and better.

Win all round.
