Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Replacing OEM Yokos with Michelin A/S 3 +

I recently replaced my Bridgestone Potenza's with Michelin A/S Pilot Sport Plus. They are a major improvement, better grip, softer on bumps, much quieter. I went with an exadurated stagger, 225/40 ZR19 in front and 285/35 ZR19 in the rear. The narrower front tires make the steering noticeably tighter and more responsive, with less pulling into the road ruts. The rears with my 15mm spacers fit the wheel wells perfectly. They do not rub, even with "spirited driving". I can just see the tires sticking out in my rear view mirrors, very cool. These hook up with far less wheel spin than the summer only Potenza's they replace. I am still getting used to the less power sliding and more forward thrust on my favorite back roads.

I am moving to northern Ohio soon where the roads are bad and so is the weather so I went All Season. I am very happy with these tires so far after a few hundred miles.
