Ferrari 458 Super Sports - Can’t find any.

[craig511]

I have a 458.

Need a new set of front tyres.

Size is 235/35/R20 Y92

Can’t seem to find any anywhere. Any ideas?

[johnnyreggae]

MPSS discontinued years ago so that could mean all your tyres need replacing due to age - current equivalent MP4S

[craig511]

Ah that’s good to know.

What’s the nearest I can fit in the same manufacturer and range etc ?

Michelin MPS4S, Camskill have them available, well they did yesterday

[craig511]

And can I leave the supersports on the rears ( loads of life left ) and out these on the front with little issue?

Thanks again.

Michelin PS4S are a nice upgrade over the MPSS.
Or if summer dry weather car, then maybe throw a set of Michel Cup 2 tyres on.

Afraid I live in Edinburgh so it’s rarely dry enough for them.

I find the supersports fun enough.

Thanks for this. I just don’t want to change all 4 tyres as the rears are almost perfect, just the fronts.

Just change everything. Tires are the most important thing when it comes to how the car feels and performs. You should have upgraded to PS4S's a long time ago regardless of the state of the old tires - simply because they will make your car feel much better! Now that the old tires are going, it's all the excuse you'll ever need to upgrade.

I recently upgraded two 911 GT3s to MPS4S and they completely transform the car. Highly recommended and I expect putting them on a 458 would have the same effect.

Give Craig Crosby a call at Skidz in Falkirk, he is top class can usually get what you need and most importantly is fantastic at looking after your wheels.

I put them on my 458 in K1 spec and they transformed the car especially in very wet conditions.

[craig511]

These are what I am proposing.

Any opinions or comments? These are the “Porsche” ones whatever they are. They had non “Porsche” ones too.

[IanLTV8]

Im also trying to get a full set of these also, have been trying for a few weeks with no luck, you need to get the ( K1 ) type not the ( N0 ) porsche

[craig511]

Any idea on the difference ?

Craig, how did you get on, I am trying to get a set of K type SS 4s for my 458 but struggling.
Only reason I want to keep the K approved tyre is for the warranty
