Tire Replacement

Have a left rear tire wearing down more than the right rear and is about toast. OEM's are Michelin Pilot Supersports 295/30za20's w 101y compound. Was going to just replace with same however have heard some noise about the P4's being better for whatever reasons. I know there are a few threads here about the rubber but most seem to deal with winter vs non winter or Canada but I am in Texas so just hot, flat, and full of potholes most of the time. Just looking for some advise especially if I can gain more mileage, not lose grip, and not increase the noise. I found such replacments for an earlier C63 but asking for help here.

Thanks

Have used many, including the ones you mention, I would suggest switching all 4 tires over to the Pilot Sport 4s if looking for the best street tire possible for warm dry conditions. Will be fine if you drive “normal” in rain as well.

Do you mind my asking in what ways it is better than the stock supers?

Thanks

The 4S is Michelin’s replacement for the Super Sport and is promoted by them as being superior in every regard. It’s a great tyre by all accounts.
