Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus. There isn't that much difference in the tire diameter to worry about.

Thanks for the onfo!

I was able to get 18k out of the Yokahamas.. just got Michelin PS2s last week.

NorCAlJoe · 03-11-2012, 08:42 PM

Well the fronts have some tread left, the rear are bald. Too much fun in my car.

I ran some Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s last summer...while not an exact match they looked and performed great. Yokohama Avan Sports are very sticky, but they really don't last very long. I was hoping they would come out with with the Michelin Super Sports that would fit the NISMO, but since they haven't I will probably go with the Pilot Sport PS2s again. There will probably be a two week wait to get them...

I too have been eyeballing the A08s. For some reason, they are cheaper than the ADVAN Sport and are supposed to perform better. I am going to give them a shot when I get back. If I don't like them, I will either get RE11s or another set of ADVAN Sports.

I have the Yokohama AD08 and they are great they seem to handle much better than stock re050s.

We ran the ps2 at spring mountain in zp format and I loved it. Very good feedback and progressive.

look at the tirerack survey "dry" ratings. any great tire will have dry feedback/traction in the 9s. which is why hankook v12's and continental dw/dws tires are numb, cause they have soft sidewalls, thereby having a low feedback rating. i say this from experience going from the the stock re050 to v12's cause i was strapped at the time and needed a cheap replacement quick. never again. my suggestions: re11, ad08, nt01

i dont know what you're talking about..the extremecontact dw has a higher rating then the re50. its rated second to the michelin pilot super sport. the dws on the other hand...has a very soft sidewall
