Billy,
I need to up my order from one to two sets please, as a mate wants some in this size for his 1M .

What is this you speak of Billy?
I ordered a full set of cups along with some other tyres from Camskill the other week and had them all within 7 days.

Never used them before but was pretty impressed with that, so much so I placed another order for 4 tyres for the S8 this morning.

You got me worried now!!

Basically Michelin have loads of 18 inch cups and can be delivered next day but the 19's are like gold dust at the moment.

Michelin are confirming with me the delivery dates on the 19's as they are all being made now. Shimmy's link at Michelin is on the case for us and Ill update later/tomorrow.

280 / 30 / 18 - I couldn't get a deal = £287.99 per tyre, in stock

Max: 265 / 35 / 18 £249.71 per tyre, in stock

UPDATE:
This has turned into a nightmare. Michelin have gone back on their word on the tyre prices and will not give me (us) a group discount as the previous prices. Frankie from ATS has also tried for us as they gave her the discounted prices. I was going to buy a couple of extras to make up the 10. So 40 tyres ordered in one go.

Tyre dates for cups from ATS are 24th May for front and 17th May for rears.

I told them that most will not order at these prices as they are the same as camskill.

Fronts 235 35 19 = £242.81
Rears 265 30 19 = £326.69

I'm not in the tyre game but i would say that they dont want these going out the door to cheap.

looks like im keeping my 18 inch rims and ordering 4 265 35 18 for 1k when really wanted to run square set up on the 19's on cups.

Those prices are now more expensive than from Camskill .

What has caused the back-peddling ?

[billyboysm3]

You have PM

[Mike RT4]

No chance of finding a German distributor willing to deal direct with us?

[billyboysm3]

Possible, 10 sets is easily achievable.

Not many will need them for trip as Salzburg cancelled, I am now changing mine back to raod tyres for trip and saving the cups for SPA in July :thumbs:

[Trawler]

24th for fronts is too late, but I may take a set of rears. Most likely will not make trip on cups now the track day is cancelled.

Thanks for all your effort billy.

BIG THANX for trying to put this together Billy :smt056
And there was me thinking Michelin were here to help us celebrate the 10th Anniversary in style :clown:
IMHO these look like " F**K Off " prices :clown: so Michelin can have their Logo stickers back :birdman:

[billyboysm3]

Ive tried again this morning to get these prices BUT I am not stopping till we get them.

Sadly will be on normal tyres for trip.

Ill tell you all about it after a few pints in Munich.

[billyboysm3]

UPDATE:

Mike from Michelin kindly sent through the original order I placed.

So ATS have 12 fronts and 16 rears CUPS in stock in branch now..

Sadly the prices are non negotiable and the best is a £50 fuel voucher.

Frankie has to send these back to Michelin by the end of next week so if you do want any please call Frankie on 01223 454640 - mention CSL Register or me Billy.

I know Camskill are cheaper but these are the only CUPS in the UK at the moment thanks to Mike.
