Big fan of the MPS4S. Ran them on my M2.
Yeah and I really like them as well DT. I've been really happy with the MPS4 on the 370Z too.

I'm a bit of a Michelin fanboy to be honest, but I do remember a time in my life when I genuinely couldn't afford to put Michelins on a car though, so I'm grateful that I can now really for sure.

Change them now if you can Lee - 3mm IMO is the lowest tread to use; after that they're nigh on useless...
They're capable of being nigh on useless on an M4 at 7 or 8mm as well Dan in fairness though! 
All joking aside, they do always recommend swapping them at 3mm as you say for sure.

I only had a short time with the PS4Ss on my 130i LE and 95% of the time they gripped superbly... But I did go for bit of a hoon from my pal who lives out in the sticks in Samlesbury, just outside of Preston; lots of local country lans and single track lanes etc... I nearly ended up backwards in a hedge after one bend... I slowed down after that

.greased my sunroof seals AGAIN cos the creaking was getting on my nerves.
If it's the rubber on rubber seals that's doing it; Gummi-pflege is what you need (if you've not got it already); it's brilliant stuff: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Liqui-Moly-7182-Rubber-Ca...danb79 said:

That looks superb on the road; the wheels work really welldanb79 said:
Oohh pray tell...
What suspension have you settled on?
After a bit of consideration I ended up going for BC Racing coilovers. Got them on the Clio and they're really good, I'll lose the EDC but these with the EDC delete kit were only £300 more than the KW HAS spring kit. I'll probably upgrade again in the future but my mate reckons they'll be more than enough for me. I'll see how they go, they've been delivered to the garage already and it's in Tuesday to have them fitted. What suspension have you settled on?

They're not my fave in all honesty; they're too much of a one size fits all etc - but they will do the job nicely, more so if fitted and set up properly
Just hope they can dial in the ride comfort for you well

I get you, I think this side of Bilstien Damptronics or Ohlins I'd end up replacing them in a year or two anyway. These I reckon will be better than the stock setup in the short term I hope. Funnily enough my mate just messaged me asking what height and suspension settings I want. They're not my fave in all honesty; they're too much of a one size fits all etc - but they will do the job nicely, more so if fitted and set up properly
