Very good all season performance tire

Came on new 24 Porsche Panamera 4. Total of 4,600 miles to date. Great handling and good in the rain. Works well on light snow too. Tires are different size front and rear so cannot rotate. Time will tell how long these will last. I would be happy to get 30k miles.

Michelin Fails To Live Up To Its Reputation

I brought my 2007 Mercedes Benz CLK 350 in for service inspection as the "brake pad wear" light came on recently. During the inspection, I was informed that the rear tires on the vehicle needed to be replaced. All four of the tires on the vehicle are Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 B 225/45ZR17 94Y XL Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 B 245/40ZR17 95Y XL Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 B I was shocked by the news that these Michelin tires needed to be replaced, given that the vehicle is driven less than 4,000 miles a year, and the vehicle is almost never driven on the freeway, and is rarely driven above 35 mph on surface streets. I have now confirmed that these Michelin tires were installed by Big O Tires on December 7, 2020, at which time the mileage on the vehicle was 90,415. The December 7, 2020 invoice from Big O Tires states that these tires come with a warranty ("Minimum Mileage Warranty: MFG45"). This past week, on Monday, May 12, 2025, the odometer mileage was recorded as 105,606. Assuming these odometer readings are accurate (which they appear to be), this means the vehicle has been driven a total of only 15,191 miles in the 53 months since these Michelin tires were both recommended and installed on the vehicle in December, 2020. This is under 3,500 miles per year. I have never heard of tires lasting only 15,000 miles, and I certainly did not expect this of a supposed "quality tire" bearing the Michelin brand. Honestly, I thought that I was buying the best possible tires for this vehicle - and, in any event, these were the tires that were recommended by Big O Tires. During my second trip to Big O Tires on Monday, May 12, 2025, I asked about whether these tires came with a warranty, or whether the dealership (Big O Tires) or the manufacturer (Michelin) would stand behind the tires and admit the obvious - that these tires are not supposed to wear out within 15,000 miles of ordinary driving. In my discussions with Big O Tires on Monday, May 12, 2025, I was given the clear impression that there was nothing that could be done for me at the dealership (Big O Tires), and that I was free to take the matter up with the manufacturer (Michelin). This seems strange to me, since these tires were recommended and installed under a warranty by the dealership (Big O Tires), and it is the dealership that promotes the Michelin tire brand. I have now done some basic research on the internet, and it seems that many other customers have complained about these tires wearing out prematurely. The loudest complaints seem to be from customers who likewise cannot believe that Michelin tires would last as little as 15,000 miles. Conclusion The more I consider what has transpired, it is unlikely that I would rely on Big O Tires or the Michelin brand in the future, or recommend them to others.

Excellent all-season performance tire

After 22 months & 17k miles: Exceptional high speed handling and control. Extraordinary protection from hydroplaning. Excellent snow and ice performance for a non-snow/ice tire. It takes real work to break traction, even with traction-control disabled during wet weather. Do NOT confuse the Pilot Sport AS4 (High-Performance All-Season M+S rated - 45k warranty) for the Pilot Sport 4S (HP soft compound Summer "only" tire - 30k). Several of the negative reviews on here clearly suffer this confusion over the 4S.

Don't balance, poor quality.

Terrible quality control. Michelin supplied 2 additional replacement sets and all 3 sets produced a vibration. Tires seen bouncing on the balancer and unacceptably high road force. 26lbs is WAY too much tolerance!!! 10 lbs is felt on low profile tires. No longer a market leader in quality.

Easy Ridin’

These tires are a huge upgrade for me. Comfort, handling and traction are all greatly improved. It’s the one repair I’ve made to my car that I can feel an immediate difference with. They seem durable so far, only been a week and two days, but I have noticed they aren’t all that quiet. That could be do to the materials used to build my vehicle too though.

Great tires and would buy again!

I bought these tires to replace the Pirelli's on my Ford Explorer ST and they make the drive to Montana (over 1,000 miles one way) very pleasant! We drive multiple times from California to Montana a few times a year and absolutely love these tires. I'll definitely buy these again when they need to be replaced.

The Perfect All Season Performance Road Tire

Replaced the old Stock Pilot Super Sports on my ‘19 Z06 Convert with a fresh set of Pilot Sport A/S 4’s. Absolutely love them. Pilot Sport A/S 4’s are rated for hot and cold ambients, dry, rain, and even snow. The perfect tire for northern state roads and highways. The Ackerman effect with tight turns, hydroplaning on rainy roads and pebble showers on the bottom of the car common with Pilot Super Sports is gone. The A/S 4’a are definitely quieter than the Pilot Super Sports. The A/S 4’s may have a bit less traction on hot dry track days but I’ll never miss it. I’d much rather have the extended driving season with the A/S 4’s . Thank you Michelin!

Amazing tire at a great price.

I waited to purchase these All Season 4's because I previously had the All-Season 3+'s on my last vehicle. I wanted to try the newest version. The A/S 4 is incredible. It feels grippier and more progressive as it transitions in a slide. The grip level is incredible for an all-season tire. And they're very quiet - noticeably quieter than the A/S 3+. As an added bonus, the sidewall and tread of this tire is great looking. Little details like placing the tire warning's along the rim protector as opposed to on the sidewall and the "velvet-look" logos. I'd definitely buy these again and have recommended them quite often.

Very Good Tires

I bought a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season ZP for my 2014 Cadillac CTS VSport Premium. These are the best riding run-flat tires I have used on this vehicle. I have experienced better wet weather performance, and expect better wear than with summer tires.

No Gimmick Tires

I originally bought the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+ with a wheel and tire package in 2016. Those tires were very impressive and held up well. When I had to get new tires, the Pilot Sport A/S 4's were a no-brainer. I've had a while to give them a full and honest review. In dry conditions these tires perform just as well as any summer tire on the market. There is no lack of grip in cornering and little to no road noise depending on the condition of the road. In wet rain conditions these tires grip the road very well and keep the car grounded through corners. In snow conditions the tires do pretty well, depending how much snow. I have had some traction issues in over two inches of new snow. Obviously in these conditions, you use your best judgement and use an abundance of caution and maybe even opt for a winter tire if conditions call for it. Overall they perform well in cold conditions up to -10 below. I've never had a traction issue on cold dry roadways using these tires. Ice and snow may bring a little bit of traction issues from a dead stop, but once you are up to speed you will have enough grip to make it home. After close to two years of driving with roughy 30-45k highway miles (and not always following the reccomended tire rotation intervals) all tires are at a 7/32 tread depth and still have plenty of life left. Someone may look at the overall price point and opt for a cheaper tire option, I wouldn't call it the most "economical" option. In terms of "you get what you pay for" these are worth every penny. There's a reason you see plenty of performance manufacturers putting Pilot Sports on from the factory. It's not a gimmick. These tires will last much longer than other brands, and will continue to deliver the performance and safety you expect from a brand like Michelin.
