You can't get PS2s for my 20" RS6 wheels at all right now. Been guys waiting on back-order since the end of last year! So I am having to fit new Dunlops to my Audi tomorrow [] My OPC initially quoted me 1400 for my Pirrelis and then they dropped that to about 1000 when I asked them to go back and check again. Strange that!! Definitely shop around...

Pilot sports or Cups? I think I know the answer, but just wanted to clarify that the OPC is charging nearly double the price of the comparable Pirellis P Zero Rosso's I just bought

Neal, they didn't say but it was a direct replacement for my Bridgestones, so guessing sports garyw

Yep it'll be the sports the cups would be noticably more from an OPC. Shop around, I know at least one place not too far from you that should be able to do Michelins noticably cheaper. When they changed mine late last year it was approx £400 less than the OPC for a full set.
