waht the !!! Michlin super Sports no longer in production!

oilcrankinject · 05-12-2015, 06:44 PM

At least for now, rep told nothing in the production pipeline for the next 4 weeks.

I need 2 275/30/19 super sports but discount tire doesn't have any and nor does tirerack.

I called Michelin and the rep could not tell me why super sports were back ordered and not on the production schedule.

what the heck. Can any provide any info on this or can anyone tell me where I can get 2 super sports from?

I really need new tires. The AS3s would work but I would have to replace all 4 tires since they are all season tires.

Have you tried discounttireDIRECT.com? That's where I got my PSS.

I'm in the same boat. I couldn't find 275/30/19 either. I ended up just getting 265/30/19 instead. It's 0.236in difference in diameter and 0.394in difference in width.

I'm hearing this now that they're really short supply. Maybe they're introducing a new model to replace it?

They show that all 3 of their warehouses have the tires on order.

Can a Michelin rep comment on this?

doubt it. we would've heard about it by now

They're putting the 275 and 255 on the M4. Maybe BMW drained the stOck.

These are summer tires. If Michelin can't make a large amount of these tires and make them available throughout the Spring then they suck. The PSS you all bought were probably made last year or in the beginning of the year. Either way they did not make nearly enough. They have been on BO everywhere for a couple of weeks now. Many of the popular sizes anyway.

I haven't received them yet. They get here tomorrow, I'll snap some when they've been mounted.

no sense spending 2 months with no segment revenue
