That's awesome news.
We just came across this in the Coker Tire catalog: Michelin’s Pilot Exalto in a 185/60R14 size. That was the go-to size for so many favorites: Volkswagen GTI, Honda CRX, Toyota MR2 and, of course, Mazda Miata.
Why is this so important? Over the last decade or two, we have watched the offerings in this size dwindle.
That's awesome news.

The only thing better would be Yokohama re-producing the AVS Intermediate. But this will suffice!

That would also be very good news. I ran them on my Rabbit GTI in, of course, 185/60R14.
This is a Big Deal!
While we're at it, can we also bring back some more offerings in 205/55R14?

Same. Good memories there, would buy both again if offered as new...
I was looking for a different tire on Coker's site when I saw the 185/60R14 Michelin and was like, I gotta stop and tell the rest of the class about this.
And are those tires still effective even though they sport plenty of tread?

I might sell my rs4s and 949s for factory wheels and these on my MR2.
