I have one of my back tyres, a Michelin Pilot Sport 265/35/ZR18 not far from the legal limit. The other one is new so I was thinking to source one new Pilot Sport but it seems impossible. My understanding is that this is an old model not any more in production.

Do you have any suggestion how to find a new Michelin Pilot Sport 265/35/ZR18?

Alternativitely I will need to change both back tyres. Since I have new Pilot Sport 3 at the front I was thinking to get matching Michelin at the back but they are the most expensive in the market (arount £ 600) and I am not sure they are worth it.
I have seen Pirelli's PZero for 400 which seems a good price.
What about other brands? I have read some posts about Falken tyres. Are these any good? They are definitely cheap (less then 300 for 2)

Thanks,

F

Falken 452's are great tyres and about £200 each too.

At Blackcircles they have a PS2. A tad more than a Falken though at £259.21
