Corvette will be one of the 1st cars to get Michelin PSS5 tires

[DenisC8]

Michelin is replacing the best performance tire on the market PS4S with a new PSS5 tire, and initially it will be offered only to OEMs (Corvette, Ferrari, Porsche, Mercedes, Tesla and Lucid)

Loved the PS4S when I put a set on my C6 Z06. Michelin pissed me off when they didn't have C7 widebody sizing on that tire.

Michelin you can make good by providing "PROPER" sizing on this PS S 5 tire for us C7 people.

I doubt they will as it will be provided to OEMs exclusively for the 1st year or so for current or future production.

I had PS4S in a 335/25/R20 on my 2019 Grand Sport. I believe that the Z06 took the same tire (stock)

Do you have a pic of that 335 size PS4S tire? I was looking everywhere for C7 widebody sizing in that tire but never saw the 335/25/20 size. Tire Rack couple years ago showed the front size 285/30/19 then a week or so later went back online to their site and the 285 size was gone (not listed).

I just checked their site now and they show the 285/30/19 size but no 335/25/20, only 325/25/20 which is pretty close.

Call who Michelin or Tire Rack?? I'm not worried about it right now I'll wait it out to see if the PS S5 will have correct sizing for the ZR1.

Well, either I guess. Tirerack is whom I meant. They respond quickly to email also.

It's hard to buy big money stuff now in the USA. Our dollar sucks and if you send it to a border place (for me NY Niagara/Buffalo) they now charge state tax then you go over to pick it up and if you are not lucky at the border you get hit with Canadian taxes and/or duties.

It was a lot better when US online shops didn't charge state taxes on your purchases sent to a border location for pick up.

I was lucky the last few times going over with the GF shopping, each time told the border person what we got and was waved through.

So Michelin brings out another tire when they can't even supply the existing tires needed for replacements on C6 & 7.

No different than GM announcing another variant of Corvette (Eray) when they can't even build Z's to satisfy demand.

Unfortunately I sold that car so no real good pictures. Michelin does list it as a correct tire size bit whether you could het os a different story.

I am running the 21” 325’s on my C8.
