Those tires are priced correctly on our site. At this time the 225/50-18 front's are $166 ea and the rear 245/45-18's are $277 ea + shipping. Of the two or so sizes we've had so far they are going to be an awesome tire. Should have stock in the sizes mentioned early April.

Thanks for the confirmation Neal. I am getting excited about wearing out my current set of NITTO Invos so I can upgrade!

Me too and thanks again Neil. Maybe my REO50A's will have a premature ending.
Although I really don't think they would last any longer than past this upcoming summer. I'm still running my Blizzak LM60's and will have then on till early April.

This is great information. My stock REO50A's only have 12K on them .... will probably replace them this summer. To say that I drive aggressively would be an understatement. I love how it corners on rails )
I don't drive in the winter and I don't even like to drive when it rains, so my G lives a pampered life.
I'm looking for the same great performance of the OEM tires, but would like to see a little bit longer tread life. :-)

I didn't read enough about it before I bought it cause I had a flat that wasn't repairable. Now that I read more about it, I think I have a bit of a problem. The front and back sizes are different, and PSS is asymmetric, doesn't that mean that I can never rotate them?

ya you cannot rotate them. but that is true for stock G37S as well it runs 225 in the front and 245 in the rear. and they are directional as well so no rotating. I actuall upped my size and went 245 in the fron and 275 in the rear. What sizes do you have?

I just got the Michelin PSS on my Audi S4, and they are awesome. Hands down the best tire I have ever had. These replaced the stock Bridgestone RE050A (same as the stock tires on the G), and it is a much better tire. They are slightly louder, and you feel a little more of the road, but well worth it from a performance standpoint. Also, if running the same size front and rear, it comes with a 30k mileage warranty (only 15k if staggered).

I just had a set of Yokohama S-drives on my G (and about 10 other ultra/high performance tires), and the PSS are the best yet. I can't recommend these highly enough.

If you are looking for inexpensive summer tires, go with the Hankook Ventus V12. Mid-priced go with the Conti DW, higher priced go with the Michelin PSS. For all out summer tires (no rain) the AD08, RE-11, and Star Specs are all good tires depending on what you are after.

I just got PSSs on my G37 a month ago. Phenomenal tires. They look great and they rid so much better than the stock Potenzas... Oh and for the time being they cost a hell of a lot less, barely more than the Hankook Ventus V12s.

I don't anticipate them remaining this cheap for long, so if you're going to be in the market for them in the near future, you might want to go ahead and jump on them. In the four days that it took me to research and finally purchase these tires, the price went up on both my front and rear sizes.

I stick with the stock size cause my friend said it could throw off ABS. Anyway, the PSS runs great, but looks really ugly IMO. Maybe because I got the stock sizes...
