Just though i would share the info. Maybe folk already know that Costco have a 20% off Michelins deal running until the 1st July, I've already bought a full set for my 993S at just over 750.00 for 4 tyres. Believe me thats good value because the 285/30/18 rear's retail at 315.00 each usually.
I fancy another set of rear's to put away so if anyone want's to make up to a set of 4 we will get the 20% across the four tyres. You can order four rear's it does'nt have to be a set of fronts a rears. This is fitted and filled with nitrogen as well!!.
I use Costco at the Trafford centre, biggrin

Sounds like a good deal Steve.
Dread to think what they are for the GT2 thankfully mine have loads of meat on the bones yet.

It's a no brainer, nobody else comes close to this deal. Keep an eye on your tread depths mate on that monster of your's! I think tyre prices will rise a lot next year.

Anyone can phone them and ask tyre pricing.

Really? When I was in there the dude called up Michelin's UK HQ and ordered from them direct for me (PS2s for my Cayman) - SS were available as he checked to make sure they weren't N-Rated - dunno about cup tyres, but if Michelin make them, CostCo should be able to get them - which branch did you call? I used Lakeside...

I'd at least ring the bloke at Lakeside then - was a good bloke and happy to help me. They had access to some sort of Michelin database online too.

Costco are not allowed to sell cup tyres as they are track focused tyres. That is same across all stores according to chester branch!!!

I just purchased (today) a pair of 185/30/18 Michelin PS2s from Chris at Exel wheels for a very competitive price fitted collected and delivered door to door. I tried several places and stock seems to be hard to obtain.

He has access to a good supply at the moment - worth giving him a call - 07885 259571

Same story at Manchester. Their sign used to say they could supply "any Michelin tyre", then that bit was covered up with a sticker saying "any tyre supplied by Michelin UK" - they weren't interested when I pointed out that because they can't get Cups (despite them being original equipment on road cars) this was clearly wrong and mis-leading.
