The time has come for a new set of boots for my car:

I guess my 3 choices (in N-rated) are:
Michelin Pilot Sport2
Bridgestone Potenza RE050A
Pirelli PZero Rosso

As unfortunately, despite having been out for quite some time now, there is still no sign of the Michelin Supersports in N-rated spec.

Is anyone aware of any special offers on any of the above?

This will be my third tyre change since owning the car - it was originally built with the PS2s and I replaced these with the same tyres first time around, but last time Michelins were out of stock so went with the Bridgestones instead.

All advice gratefully received!

I have the Michelin Pilot Supersports and they are easily the best option (if under first 2 years warranty). Are you under extended warranty?

Yes, otherwise the Supersports would be the only choice!

In your position PS2's would be my preferred choice.

Why are Super Sports the best option?

More grip?
Better wear rate?
Cheaper?

Or something else?
