Good spot Nick, they literally must just be released in 16”

I agree with Stefan, the Pilot Sport 3 is a 15 odd year old design, so I’m sure compounds and tyre technology have moved on a lot in that time,

I have 5’s on my GTD and they are great

Good news for the older cars that run 16’s, I wonder if they will bring out a 15” option?

Will this mean they kill off the Pilot Sport 3🤔🤔

I bought some tyres (PS4S) for my Audi a little while back and afterwards was invited to an online video call with a Michelin representative to provide some feedback and thoughts on their products generally. One of my asks was for an update to the PS3 in a 16" for the Clio. Pleased that they have now decided to go ahead with the PS5 :)

Hi James - where did you get them from? are you ok to share the price? cheers
Camskill. They seem to come and go in terms of stock.

The site said two were available but it let me order four. I had to email back and forth a bit with one of their sales people but they managed to find another two.

I think they were about £110 each.

They look amazing! But the car isn't quite ready for them yet.

Thanks James. According to Camskill's website they are £115 each, so £460 for 4 plus £23 for P&P = £483. Do you have a good tyre fitter?

Just checked - £486.60 delivered.

I should get cashback of £30 from Michelin.

I'm not sure I know a good tyre fitter, but I'm going to refurb my wheels, so I'll get them fitted then.

I haven't had chance to swap over yet, but I will try and give a review. Bearing in mind, I'm coming from 5 year old Yokohama AD08 RS.

James, any chance of a few pics to see what one of the 16” ps5 looks like out of the bag🤞, Interested to know what the side wall and thread profile looks like in 16” vs the ps3😊
