For us they are out already. For you, no clue.
PS: using us and them on an international forum gets confusing, right? Never realised that bimmerpost is a us forum only...

The U.S. is expected to start seeing the new Michelin roll out around March-April 2017.

I'm aware that these are available in our sizes in Europe already but does anybody know if/when there'll be a BMW specific model with the star on it? They normally apply their own tweeks to the tyre before they approve it. Don't see anything about it on the Michelin website btw.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Availablilty in the US
Quote:
News Flash: Companies actually make different web sites with different information for different markets. http://www.michelinman.com/US/en/homepage.html is an appropriate site for the US market for passenger cars. Pilot Sport 4S can be found via search on this web site, but information is very limited. No size list was apparent. When searching by tire name, a 2016 M2 cannot be fitted with Pilot Sport 4S. A guess would be because they are not yet available. A chat on the site resulted in and indication thata Pilot Sport 4S tires will first come to the US market in March with 19" and larger being the first sizes available before smaller sizes. If you find more information, please share. |

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Event in Palm Springs Tonight 1/16
Just saw a short clip on Periscope shot by an attendee at a Michelin Pilot Sport 4S introduction in Palm Springs, tonight. The car on which they chose to show the tires was a M4 GTS.
It appeared the individual streaming on Periscope had not seen a GTS before. The isn't much to see in the video. They are apparently going to the home of BMW Performance Center West at The Thermal Club in Thermal, CA a little south east of Palm Springs tomorrow.

If the cars are built in Germany, won't they get the tires sooner? Obviously need to be US spec, but I would not be surprised if the tires are actually made in Germany. |
