I just checked Tire Rack...seems the 245/35 Front is @ $299 each, but the rear 265/35 isn't.

$600 just to replace the fronts, and I can't imagine the rears will be any cheaper that would make a set of tires at least $1200 (plus tax/shipping) ... that's quite expensive!!! Especially given the tire-chewing potential of the car... ):

The first set of information by Michelin was excluding the rear sizes for 1M or M3 Comp. Pack. which is 265/35 19. The front 245/35 19s were present from day one. Today, when I was switching from my actual car's winter tires to the summer ones, (I was in a Michelin dealer) I checked with them and I saw a factory list which includes 265/35 19s as well, almost 40% more expensive than the fronts but good news is it already exists. It might be a regional release for wider European area; maybe not yet for US market.

I wonder how long until the PS2s are discontinued?
