To keen and no brain

Ordered 2 brand new Michelin Pilot Sports cup + on E-bay (235/35/19)for £450 just to find out that the Sport cups + don't do the right size for the CSL at the back.

I think those tyres are for the new M3 only.

Called the chap the next day to explain the problem and he agreed to send money back,but only now to find out that he had spent the money and that the tyres are arriving with me today.

I have already ordered as well 4 regular sports cups arriving tomorrow.

Looks like i have two new front tyres i can't use

ah well learn by your mistakes and get them back on flea bay.

Did the Michelin Super Sports not replace the Cup+? They have great reviews,
I need to order a set of Super Sports shortly. Tyretraders seem to be the cheapest at the moment.

No the S/Sports replaced the PS2's.

Im running Cups at the moment but will probably go S/S's next.

I have a pair of brand new 265 35 19 cup+ to match your fronts.

I ran this set-up with no issues whatsoever.
