Shame they aren't going to make the PSS in the 225/4018Y XL size any time soon

^^^^ I wonder why? 225 40 18 is a very very popular tyre size along with 225 45 17 and 205 55 16.

225/40 R18 88Y * (BMW spec) PSS is available in Germany for some weeks now. So it should be also in the UK?

The new BMW M135i F20 comes with these on front factory fitted (non-runflat).  :wink:



ps: shipping to GB is just 4.95 € for a set of four
