Hello,

I am thinking about purchasing the Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires for my M6 M167 rims. Can someone please let me know how much do they usually runs, tires + installation? Any recommended seller/shop in LA?

PS2s for an M6 will run $353 fronts and $436 rear on Tire Rack.

As an alternative, Hankook Ventus costs about half that ($163F/$218R) and were rated very high by Car & Driver .

returned your PM. honestly just for daily driving, Id recommend the Falkens I quoted you for over the Michelins. another popular choice and considered by others as "best bang for your buck tires" are the general exclaims.

PS2 is really good tire, but expensive and wears quickly, if you can live with these cons, its a good choice.

Thank you everyone for your input..i just have one last question

Between these two...which one is better? in term of performance, noise, and comfort.

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus (Ultra High Performance All-Season)
Bridgestone Potenza RE960AS Pole Position (Ultra High Performance All-Season)

Those two are the best all season tires out there. You can't go wrong with either one.
It's like asking do you like coke or pepsi better?

Here we go again... J/K

I have seen the Bridgestone vs. Michelin question several times on various forums...

All I can add is that I have the Pilot A/S and just love them. Quiet, very smooth, good wet and dry traction, very predictable if you go nuts with the TC off. Great tire.
