Car is about to come out of storage this weekend and I'll need new tyres at some point, curious to know what other people are using? Currently have Pirelli P Zeroes on mine.

When I bought mine I got the dealer to put Michelin Pilot Sports on. Was back in 2015.

It has six or seven year old Pirelli’s from memory with lots of tread but I wasn’t that keen on such old tyres.

PS4S would be my choice in 2022

I’ve been looking everywhere for Pilot Sport 4s and can’t find them in 285/35/19. frown

MPS4S. Fantastic tyre, although I've read that there are shortages at the moment.

Had some fitted a few weeks ago, totally transformed the car.

I can't find PS4s in a 19 at any of the usual suspects, only in a 20. I wonder if there is a supply issue.

In what way? Curious to know.

We’ll probably mainly due to the 10 year old rubber which was previously on there! Front end actually feels planted to the tarmac now.

Lol, fair one. Not sure if mine are quite ten years old but they've been on there a while. You might be interested in these perished rubbery bits, all 16 have just been replaced at GTO Engineering. I suspect these are as old as the car:
