I replaced my rear tyres with Michelin Pilot Super Sports 1.5 months ago. However, one developed a bulge without me knowing which has annoyingly led to an MOT failure.

I need to replace the tyre ASAP, but I can't get hold of one for a not-extortionate price. Therefore I might need to replace with a Michelin Pilot Sport 3.

Do you reckon they are more or less the same and mixing won't be a big issue?

Cheers

I doubt it'd be a disastrous issue.

What size are they and where have you looked?

Camskill, lovetyres and tyre leader all have them.

Thanks, I didn't know about Tyre Leader and they have stock. Have you got any experience with their reliability of delivery?

None at all but I'd be surprised if it wasn't fine.

If they are all new I'd be tempted to wait a couple of days and get the MPSS to match.
