Also are the Sports Contact 5P not avialable in this size in the EU either?

I see in T-T's review he thought he had bought some for the American market, but am sure The Bruce (who is German) rates the 5P so must be avialable there?  :confused: Or did you buy in a different size Bruce?

I've seen the SS in the same config on an american site bu if you look at the michelin website, it's not listed.

yeah i checked the michelin website and got same conclusion as you.

Looks like might need to see if the Goodyear Eagle is as good as everyone says..

I'm going for these based on the positive forum reviews too.

yeah am not keen on trying the Pilot Sport 3 or SC5 without the "P" as with over 300 horses going through the front wheels I dont think they will be up to the job and the semi slicks invalidate the insurance  :surprised:
