Had an interesting conversation today with Michelin.

I asked what tyres were available for Gen II Vipers with 18" Wheels and it turns out NONE!

Pilot Sport 2s for the rear are sometimes available but the 275/35/18 front tyres are in Runflat format only (for the later Gen 3s) and are not recommended to mix runflats with Non runflats. Other Michelin tyres in the size are not Performance tyres and are not recommended for the Viper.

So it looks like Toyos or Prelli from now on unless you import from USA.
