are michelin tires finally available for g35s?

I noticed that Michelin now makes the front tire for the G35S. It's the primacy mxm4 which is a grand touring all-season. But they don't have an exact match for the rear tires. The grand touring all-seasons for the rear are the primacy mxv4 and the pilot hx mxm4... What do yall think? After the last winter in Dallas, I want an all seasons. And I like michelins. The stock summer tires are scary on ice.

I recently put on the Pilot Sport A/S' on my 35S. I had to go a bit wider and lower profile than stocks, but there has been zero problems with VDC. These tires are also SUPER!

If you're interested in exact sizes PM me and I'll take a look at what's on my car. Can't remember currently what they were. I know it was 235/255 but I don't remember the profile.

P.S. I am in Dallas too...

If you can post the actual sizes, it will be great as I am also looking at other tires for the G. How does this tire compare to the Potenzas?

Thanks!

235/50/18 and 255/45/18 on mine. Get the new version, the Pilot Sport AS Plus.

They wear well, are great in the rain...and you give up a bit of traction and steering quickness vs. the stock Sport tires. If the stock Bridgestones are a 10 in traction and a 10 in quickness; the Pilots are relatively an 8.5 and 8, respectively.

That said, they work great in most situations, and I've gotten 50% more tread life out of them.

I went with 235/45 255/40 for a lower profile look.
