Michelin doesn't sell regular Pilot Sports any more. Are they PS2s? Pilot Super Sports? ...or ZPs or PS2 ZPs? Also, are the G-Force Sports 'regular', or super sports?

Assuming we're talking about regular PS2s vs. regular g-Force Sports, the PS2 is a *much* better tire. Although running mismatched tires is far from ideal, you should be able to make due in most relatively dry road conditions by driving very conservatively. Please consider staying out of the rain, since this is where the mismatched tread pattern will cause the most problems.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
