Thread pattern looks much better. Not more sipes on the shoulder pattern. A bit of PS2 and Conti thread design and from size chart start from 17" woh!

Yes, the PS4 is looking very promising,

Looks like it's also limited to wheels 17" to 18" in diameter?

Probably they introduce in these sizes for initial launch.. and later bigger sizes will come from europe.. once they start producing in asean countries, they'll make smaller sizes i'm sure.

if they implement the PSS dna into PS4 then it will be excellent.

 

[es2611]

nice.
would be nicer if michelin covers 15" and 16" like PS3.

 

[Zeroshift]

nice thread pattern.. Hopefully it comes with a harder sidewall as PS3 is kinda soft for a UHP tyre..

Really? I thought the PS3 was quite hard already. Any harder it'll be extreme category like the RSR no?

 

[KenDiriwan]

now i do hope they cover fifteen

no bro.
imho eagle RS = RSR > Potenza RE002 > PS3.

tested all 4 in the same size.

Yea...They are pretty soft..but that is my opinioin la...

RSR, RE003, Champiro HPY have much harder sidewall compared to PS3...

That why i think it's pretty comfy using PS3 compared to other UHP...

PS3 sidewall is very soft. Harder ones are PSS, but that one from 18" up....

Last time PS2 no 15" but GY GS-D3 have, then PS3 came out with 15" but GY Asy start with 17"....

Not sure if PSS dna can come into PS4

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 - Press Release

Michelin Pilot Sport 4With the Continental Sport Contact 6 already launched, and the Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 3 announced, 2016 is shaping up to be a really exciting year for performance tyres.

Next up, the Michelin Pilot Sport 4. Many people felt the Pilot Sport name lost its direction as the Michelin Pilot Sport 3 didn't replace the Pilot Sport 2, but the slightly more touring bias Pilot Exalto 2. The true replacement for the Pilot Sport 2 came in the shape of the well regarded Michelin Pilot Super Sport.

 

[beatnik]

Why not? :proud:

With the launch of the Pilot Sport 4, Michelin are aiming to get the Pilot Sport name back on track. The new tyre borrows lessons learnt from both the Pilot Super Sport, and Michelins involvement with the Formula E race series. This has resulted in a tyre which has a much more performance focus than the Pilot Sport 3, but still retails excellent tread life, a strong wet performance and the good levels of comfort we've come to expect from a premium tyre.

Let's see. If PS4 is so good then don't need PSS range......lol

 

[cvkit17]

wah !! No size for 15" huh? My PS3 is still sleeping in the store wahahhaha cham...later the rubber hardened and sidewall becomes like RSR
