I dont get Michelins Website?



  Renault Sport 182
If Michelin have discontiued the Pilot Exalto PE 2 why do they still have them on there website along side the Pilot Sport 3s if you select the Clio RS 182? I know they dont actually replace that product line but if the PE2s are no longer available why advertise them as a current product.

Maybe the too busy awarding Stars to Gordon Ramsey of something to change their website...

Oh bought my 182 with a set of these:

The tread is pretty much like new but are they worth upgrading to the Michelin Pilot Exalto PE 2 or alternative, will i notice a big difference?

Thanks as always.

iirc maxxis tyres are pretty good

at fcs lat year they had a trade stand and they were fitted to the cars they were using
 
  Discounted 1*2 parts
PE2 is still available in some sizes, that'll be why it is still advertised.

I had maxxis tyres on an old vectra and they were terrible, road noise like you had 4 wheel bearings gone!
 
  Renault Sport 182
Not really driven the car much as im still ironing out so issues but i have noticed some bad road noise so much so that i thought the rear bearings had gone, changed the rear discs with bearings (genuine) and it was still there. Then thought it was my tyre pressures low so checked them and there ok, road noise still there :dapprove:
