I had ps4’s Fitted last week for £166 a pair.

Impressed with the lack of losing traction and good rim protection.

Good luck with ATS if they are fitting... Make sure that you take photos of your alloys before you start with them...

PS4’s definitely. I’m running them on my 3er with 440hp and 295 rears and they stick like no others I’ve run.
