Fitted Pilot Sport 4s all round . I think they are better for road use than the LTS Corsa .

Not sure what the load rating is on those, but if it’s anything like the Super Sport they need to run at a much lower pressure than the Pirelli’s - 2bar front and 2.2bar rear. Low enough to set off the pressure warning light!

The Super Sport is the official tyre for the Evora 400 and a lot of older cars run them now too. Not sure about the 4S.

Had MPSS on the front axle and PS4S on the rear (fronts are 18” and unavailable in PS4S). These were replaced with PS4 all round running 33R/31F.

No complaints - you have be driving VERY hard to realise the benefit of MPSS or PS4S over PS4. Not tried Pirellis on the Evora, but I doubt this side of the Trofeo R that they’re in the same league as PS4/PS4S.
