MYP 21' Michelin Pilot AS4 Sizing

[LionelHutz]

Just ordered them from Tirerack today as they added the part number. Expected delivery is Nov. 21. Need to call to order them as they’re not listed on their site.

Invoice says 12/04 for the 275s? Did the rep say otherwise?

Rep said 11.21 for both sizes!

Rep said 11.21 for both sizes! But glad they finally got a part number so I could order them.

Good to hear!

Michelin just released stock F&R sizes for the MYP in their Pilot Sport A/S 4's. Apparently they are also considered "Tesla Originals" (T0) and have the acoustic foam too.

Would these be better than the 265/40 and 285/40 A/S tires? I was thinking about those to get a little more height/rubber, even though they'll slightly rub when parking.

Do you know for certain that these will rub? 10.4 inch tire width for the 265/40 versus 10.0 inch tire width for OE 255/35 front tires.

Yes, there were a few threads about people with this exact tire installed. It's only a slight rub when parking, but even then you're going so slowly that there's no wear/tear on it and just a slight smudge on the plastic of the wheel well on the fronts.

You do you, but I don’t think that kind of rubbing is acceptable for a tire fitment. An occasional rub on strut compression is one thing, but rubbing your fenders in parking lots isn’t great.

Another data point here--the rep at my local tire shop called Michelin directly about the Tesla-specific fitment. Michelin confirmed they are in production, but with no ETA for release.

I think I'll do the 265/35 and 275/35 setup, and replace with the T0 tires as they wear out.

*Edit: FYI, Tire Rack is now showing as backordered to December for the 275/35 non-Tesla fitment. If you need to get these tires for the winter it would be a good idea to lock down a set now.

I was worried this would happen. Thank god I bought these a few weeks back.

This is amazing news for MYP. Do you know where to order these Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4’s. When can we order tires?

having trouble finding the 255 and 275 35 R21 out there in the "TO". Are the standard Black Wall adequate for the 2021 MYP?

Anyone have experience running the non TO Michelins All Seasons on the MYP.. Without the additional acoustic foam? Is it much noisier?

I have the non acoustic version. I haven‘t noticed an increase in noise. The ride is a little better and after about 500 miles I would say the range is better as well.

Much better than the P zeros

Great news! Are you running 255 or 265 in the front?

I have a couple hundred miles on this setup now. The noise is much less intrusive. I couldn't tell you whether the absolute dB level is lower than the Pirellis, but the Pirellis have an unpleasant roar/boominess. The Michelins basically sound like white noise. The ride quality is also far more supple than the Pirellis.

I couldn’t wait for the OEM T0 tires and just went ahead and purchased the 265 & 275 from discount tire direct. Got 10% off and 25% off road hazard.
