Anyone tried Michelin PS2s?
I'm trying to make some final disisions about what I want in a SPF Cobra. On the topic of tires has anyone tried the Michelin PS2s? What sizes did you use and what is your recommendation?

I run Avons on my 15" rims (which I LOVE), however I LOVE the PS2's on my BMW! In fact, just today I purchased my 3rd set. Sorry, can't help you with sizes for your SPF...

I have PS 275/40ZR and 335/35 ZR 17". They have about 4k miles and still look pretty new. I just got my SPF from a private party and don't have anything to compare these tires to. The previous owner had the car set low and I can smell rubber when we hit the a bump on the freeway. I plan to raise the body as soon as I can get the wheels loose! Yes, they look awesome. I've got a Club Cobra photo album you can check out.

I'm on my second set of PS2s on ny 510 rwhp C6 Z06 (345/30/19s & 275/35/18s) and love 'em. Great stick for a DOT (non-race rubber tire) tire. I got 32K miles out of my last set too. Down side = pricey

Those are the only 17" tires we use. They are pricey (about $1400 set), but so are 15" AVONS. You get what you pay for. Ward has the right sizes.

I had the 275/40ZR and 335/35 ZR 17 PS2s, but found them too easy to spin. My tire guy suggested Kumho ECSTA XS; much stickier and half the price. One note, you'll have to step down to 315/35-17 for the back because the tread width on the Kumhos is wider than the PS2s of the same section width (335). Smaller size also fixes the rubbing problem, so you might be able to keep your current ride height.

I have not run PS2s on my SPF , but I run them on absolutely everything else.
Their ultimate grip is slightly less than an Eagle F1, but their transitional handleing and compliance make up for it.
they make a good suspension great, and a great suspension awesome.
they also make WAYYYY less noise than just about everything else in their class.
