Bridgestone s-04 or michelin ss?

370ZYZFR1

I really don't like the original tires. I put s-04 on my last g35 and they rocked. I heard michelin are a notch above. I heard however there are flat spot issues with the pss?? Definitely don't want that.

Which one should I buy? Read lots of posts on his and everyone seems torn...

Dunlop direzza z2. Replaced re-11's and they are better than the Bridgestones. Don't skimp on tires.

Everything I read has been saying those two are the best...

Can you afford the PSS?
If so, get them. Case closed. Never heard of flat spots. Just buy them. You get a mileage warranty too

If you're planning on driving it every day Id give the pss a try.

I too read about the flatspotting issues on the pss so got a new set of S04's again.
This is on my G

PSS. Never an issue of any kind here and I do work them!

This isn't my daily driver. So with it sitting sometimes I worry about possible flat spots. The s-04s were such good tires when I had them before.

Yes. The price isn't an issue.

I have the PSS and love them, I never tried the bridgestones, but my next set will be PSS again

It's close! So for those of you who think pss, you don't think I will have any flat spot issues if I only drive it a few times per week?

somewhat correct. you get a half life warranty. it's 30K is its a square set-up. only 15k warranty on a staggered set-up. called them once since i ran trough my rears of PSS's in about 15k miles.

just FYI

sidenote: that wasnt a problem just info on the warranty. once spring comes closer i'm buying another set of PSS'. best tires i've ran. bumping to a wider set this tiem around though. thinking 265/295 set up.

my Z sits for months in the winter in my garage.i maybe move it 10-15 ft back then forward when i start it up once a month to move fluids around and make sure the battery is good and i've never had any flat spots or issues with mine.

^^ thats good to hear about non flatspotting on your ride.

FPenvy

yea its nice but to be honest it wouldnt matter lol i trash a set of tires every summer when i can actually drive my car. so the front tires will be tossed and the rears which are currently spare pirellis i had to put on since with 2 weeks of driving time left my PSS's were showing thread badly on the rears and were very unsafe lol so those rears dont matter to me either. got 4 for $25 each off a local guy for back ups

I have PSS's on my car which sits in a parking garage 9 days out of 10. No flat spots.
I love them. They grip well in dry and wet conditions and are even a few lbs lighter than other tires. The only downside is that they wear out pretty fast during hard driving.
