£132 including both VAT and fitting isn't bad for 235/19's.

Presuming that 18" people are buying PS3 (or PS3's) and 19" people are buying PS4S (or PS4S')?

A set of 225/40/R18 PS4 can be had for about £320 fully fitted at Costco if you wait for the next round of Michelin Promo discount.

I just had to buy a pair of 245/35/R19 for my A4 and they're about 30% dearer than 255/35/R19 - thanks for picking the obscure sizes, Audi.

I went with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supersports and they seem very good in performance and feel - much better than the Contisport 6 they replace.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

The £427 I paid was for PS4, 225/40/18. Wow, £100 would've been quite a saving. Still not sure I would've gone for it, at least my wheels are unmarked!

The PS4s grip, traction and ride comfort are excellent. I'm not too sure about feel as yet, and I think I'm getting some tramlining. I'm going to drop the pressures to 36 to see if that improves things.

Costco are incredibly anal about wheels and they look after them in fitting. PS4 in 225/40/R18 on our Polo GTI+ feel a lit better at 36PSI fronts/34PSI rears than the recommended 41/38PSI and still wear evenly.

Getting fitted tomorrow and Michelin have offer on 19", £40 cash back for two and £100 for four!

I already cashed in the last pair of tyres and they paid my bank account within about a week!  the dealer paid the bill and I got the cash back  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
