Apologies, I know this has come up once or twice on this forum and other forums, but am still unclear on what the best options are at present.

Factory Pirelli Zero's will need changing soon at only 7500 miles. I'm staggered by this but that's another conversation...

Looking at replacements but not sure I want Pirelli again. Don't think they perform as well as other brands and they are expensive. Was thinking of Michelin PS4S and seems a few have gone for this option.

However not sure what variation of PS4s I need. There is no Hyundai approved equivalent. Some have gone for PS4s designated for Porsche (ND01). Others don't specify. There seems to be lots of PS4s designations out there for different car makes but none for Hyundai, so which one do I look at. There is an EV specific tyre that Michelin do but this isn't a PS4s. Local tyre fitters aren't that helpful on the subject either.

So for those that are using PS4s, what actual variation or designation of PS4s are you using. Guessing it would need to be EV suitable and match the equivalent load ratings etc...

Anyone able to shed any light or let me know what they are using if they made the switch......?

Thanks
 
I went with Bridgestone RE003 in 225/40-18 and have been very happy with them. More feel that the stock tyres and lasting much longer. If I was changing them now I would go for the latest version the RE005 waiting for the 4 for the price of 3 offer.

I've had PS4S tyres on other cars and they are good tyres but lack the feel of the RE003's which suits the i20N perfectly.
