From: Things turn out best for those who make the best of the way things turn out
Just been to Costco Lakeside and been told from 19/1/07 to 18/2/07 they are offering 20% of all Michelin tyres
Current price for 235x 45x 17 Y94 186mph+ For 113.96 fitted each Is this a good price?
I need four
The above price is before the 20% by the way
Any comments please.

This was shown in the Costco Spring Offers booklet. You must buy set of 4 tyres and only 2 sets allowed per customer. Last time they did this some were buying them and sticking the tyres in the loft and then going back for fitting when they needed it, as you'd already paid for the fitting in the price they didn't charge you again for the fitting.
Shame as I only really need a couple of 225/40/18 probably later this year. I've had PS2 on my car for a couple of years and no probs at all with them.

I got a set fitted the last time they had the offer on. They are a very good tyre and the price is good. I find they tramline slightly more than the toyo T1/S I had before and think the toyos might be slightly better if you hit a big puddle too, but otherwise I have no complaints. Car is a JDM sti 2001 and size is 225/45/17. They seem to be wearing quite well too, must have done 10k with them and they still have lots of tread.

If Michelin make them then Costco will order them in.
And the 4 tyre deal is good, I got four for the scoob, but the G/F's Golf only needed 2 but they are happy to sell you four, fit 2 now and fit the rest later.

PS2`S. Had them fitted last night seem a lot quieter and definitely a different ride, no tram lining
although I don`t think they will have the same side wall deformation.
Grip to be confirmed wet and dry, need to scrub them in a bit first!

had them out in the rain last night, what a great tire... I have had all the big name tires and these are the best by far in the wet,
haven't had dry time yet but if they are anywhere as good as in the wet I will be very impressed, and having come from the mighty RE070`s
they will need to be good to better them in the dry
On ride quality they seem to have taken the Beast out of my BeeSTi
........Anyone else found this happening , very smooth and quite...a bit scary?
