Toughts on tyres - Michelin PS4, CPC5?

[revell]

Hello,

Does anyone have experience with Michelin PilotSport4 or Continental PremiumContact6? Reviews give a slight edge to Michelin, but I'm more worried about actual defects, quality issues & etc. Does anyone know where they are being manufactured in Europe?

I know some Continental's are made in Romania (and Poland?), Michelin has factories in Spain and likely both have silos in China.

Looking for a new set of summer tyres after having Goodyear Assy3. They looked like a bargain and as with everything - you get what you pay for. Only one of the set showed 1mm difference in thread thickness and for the rest - well it took awhile to balance the whole set. You wouldn't expect these things to pass quality control...


Cheers

Not the PilotSport4, but I had the Michelin PSS and had no issues with them. Excellent grip and very stable. Currently, I have a set of Toyo T1 tires that I got from 4wheelonline. So far, I have no negative things to say about them.
