Designed, engineered and built for the fast lane. From cornering and braking to sheer power and responsiveness, Focus ST delivers a thrilling driving experience.

I've started designing some shirts and stuff for the ST crew - simple design, based on the newer body style '15-up

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S are Installed
Finally got the appointment to have the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires installed - a little wider than stock by 10mm, and 1/2 aspect ratio smaller (40 vs 45) - which doesn't affect the speedometer, etc...
The techs at America's Tire loved the ST and said I would absolutely love the Sport 4S tires - they're super high rated, and knowingly so since they're the successor to the insanely popular Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires...
OEM size of the Goodyear Eagle F1s are 235/45R18 which are a bargain compared to the Michelin rubber, to be honest, less than 1/2 the price!!
Just check the specs! 👀

We will see about how long these tires last :) LOL
I'm sure they'll take a few miles to break in as the outer skin wears through - but I'm very impressed with the noise on the road and they feel VERY plush for an aspect ratio of 40!
Even though pricey - I give them 👍👍
Ordered a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S - install pending
Our ST has chewed up the OEM tires, took only 23k miles... but what do you expect from a little rocket that you throw around corners. I'm surprised they lasted this long! 😆
I've had the Michelin Pilot Super Sport (PSS) on my AMG E55 and even on our 2011 Mazda MX-5 - the handling and grip is amazing! So I looked for those as a replacement - and found them for $149/ea at America's Tire - alas they're an older set of PSS that they're discounting due to age, and they're being phased out...
So we ordered a new set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S which is the successor to the ever popular PSS.

We had to go up 10mm in width to fit the Focus @ 245/40R18 (OEM is 235/40R18)
Install is pending this week... feedback to come!
