Poor quality and disappointing

My 2025 Gle53 amg has only 14632 miles on it and this tire has already failed. I am surprised at the dry rot and i have a lot of tread left on this tire and the other three but it is no longer safe to drive anymore.

10 Year Old Design!? Seriously!?

Michelin FAN Boy Here! If it was 2020, this would be a 5 star rating. But it is approaching 2027!v This is coming on to being a 10 year old tire - crazy! I needed a new set of tires for my 911. I was about to purchase a 3rd set of PS4S tires. But I then had the opportunity to drive on PSS5s. SHOCKED! I then realized how out of date these 4S tires are. There is even competition now catching up. The OEM spec versions are still good but could be GREAT!! People are still giving these tires 5 stars because they don't know what Michelin could do in 2022...until you ride on a set PSS5s and take them to track day. I am a huge Michelin fan, understand this! But I am a quite disappointed that Michelin made the best in Jan 2017 and keeps selling it because they can, instead of raising the bar when they could, and should! In car racing, when you are winning a race, you don't slow down to win less! You go as fast as you can and win to break the record when it is feasible and safe to do that! It is an attitude that Michelin should have in this category of tire! Don't go drive a set of PSS5s, you will suddenly see what is being held back and you will want to downgrade your recent ratings of this tire. Where is the PSS6 for everyone? I decided to hold off on a new set of tires for a bit longer. I might just go purchase a set of Conti Sport 2 to cancel out of this race to win but slow down mentality! But I do have to say - wow -what a great tire the 4S was to have lasted this long and still beat out the competition! That there is no denial!

The best tire money can buy

When I tell you I'll never buy another tire again. I mean it considering what I've experienced with these tires. I already knew that these tires were very reliable. Due to me having them on my motorcycle & previous vehicles. But Monday sealed the deal for me. I ran over a collated nails in a construction zone. Totally unaware of it, my tire began to go flat. When I looked at the tire I could only see for nails. But when I took my car to the tire shop & they removed the tire. You could see the actual extent of damage that occurred. And just how well these tires held up, keeping my son & I safe. Needless to say I purchased another set of the same tires with a warranty. I'll vouch for these tires every single time.
