Hi Guys,

I need a full set of tyres for my 996 C4S cab, I'm not fussed about N-Rated tyres, and ideally wanted to get set of Michelins PS4 However I can't find them in rear size! Any suggestions?

Current tyres sizes are;

Front 225/40/18
Rear 295/30/18

Has anyone recently bought a full set 18" tyres recently? I really don't want to go back to PS2's.

Thanks
 
I've just ordered ps2's in 225/40 for the front of my turbo. The difficulty is finding tyres in 295/30 as its an unusual size which is why I've stuck with ps2's (not sure they make ps4's in both sizes).
 
I'm really happy with PS2s, though it took a while to adjust after several thousand miles on Bridgestones. Just ordered two more fronts for mine, can't see me ditching them until the PS4s become mainstream and go N rated.
 
Thanks for the responses guys, looks like another set of PS2's is the way forward.

Would anyone recommend PS4 fronts & PS2 rears? or is that a no no!
 
Just stuck PS2's (same size as yours) on the back of my Turbo. There is not a whole heap of choice out there - FYI - I found Blackcircles to be the cheapest, but I think that prices do go up and down
 
Alex recommended Falcons to me for my C4S and they have been superb and very long living

I had Michelin PS2's N3 all round fitted in May 2015 where before I had Continentals n-rated from the prior owner.

The Mich tyres are very good.
