In the market for these tires. I have searched everywhere locally and nobody has in stock or know when they will be available. I need new tires asap and definitely don't want to run on Pirelli Pzero again. Any help locating a set would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Also anyone out there running Dunlop Sport Maxx RT or Continental Contisport? My service adviser recommended these two over the Pirelli Pzero as a good substitute if I couldn't get the Michelin.

I have a brand new set of 285/30r21. Ordered a second set in case I needed it on my trek from Maryland to Texas ACNA bday.
Where do you live? PM me as I don't need it right now.

Do you still have stock blade wheels? Wonder how fitment of 285/30/21 PSS will be on stock RS7 wheels - width.

Arent those tires a bit big for that car? By about an Inch and a half. Sweet looking though.

I have the same tires on my rs7 blade wheels. They fit perfectly.

I had given up on PSS on the RS7. This is great news.

It may not be much help, but on my ADV1 21x10's I ran 265/30/21's MPSS's. I believe they were readily available. However, if you're trying to meet an oem size, then I would go with the 285/30/21.

I have searched everywhere. I even had a supplier contact Michelin directly and they said they were on back order and could not give an exact time of when they would have more in stock.

I know it's only a small difference, but did you guys change the size in vagcom for the larger diameter tire? Deciding between pss and oem Pirelli.

Order update - Shipped! Ordered 1/6/15 from Tire Rack. Just got shipment notification! 17K on OEM Continentals. Can't wait to install the PSS.

Better late then never......gald they came in for you.
I gave up and just ordered Hankook's due to price just to see how they'd do. Jury is still out on how many miles I will get from them, but other then being slightly louder then the Pirelli's I hardly notice a difference. If I can get at least the 9K miles I got out of the shitty Pirelli's I'll be way ahead.

I got about 11k out of the factory Pirelli's. I have since changed wheels, went down to 20s, and got Hankook's for the price and performance I think it's the best bang for buck option. I have about 15k miles on them and probably have another 2k before I need to switch them out. I do plan on getting the PSS to see how it compares to the Hankook's

Just got home from a week in Seattle and Jackson Hole and 4 of these had just been delivered, 192 days after placing my order. By comparison, it took 190 days from order to delivery of my RS7. These damned things had better be good...http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/07/16/478740bc82ae813a8e409c28aa22dad4.jpg
