Transformative ride

To date, I've only had the OEM Bridgestone Potenza summer run-flats and Blizzaks for the winter on my 2013 BMW 335is. I took the plunge this week and had the new Pilot Sport 4S installed and it has transformed the driving experience. The ride is smoother, quieter and grippier. I also notice an improvement in fuel ecconomy. My only disappointment is that I suffered with the OEM tires for a couple years! A road trip is imminent!

Noisy and unsettling

Michelin is usually my first choice, but the PS4S has a strange, imprecise feel, most noticeable when entering a fast, sweeping bend on the highway. The car feels like it yaws and wobbles before settling into a turn. The tire is also strangly loud over most highway surfaces, with an annoying, resonating howl. Definitely noisier than the older PS SuperSports were.

Amazing wet and dry performance

I just got my first set of Michelin tires and they were these Michelin pilot sport 4 s tires. I've gotta say I was on the fence because of the price but as soon as you experience the capabilities of this tire and regret is instantly gone, it's been pouring rain the last week every day and not once has my confidence dropped while driving on these tires and in dry weather the level of performance is absolutely incredible

The best of the best!

Honestly, I have been waiting to replace the OEM Pirelli's with a set of Super Sports or PS2s since I purchased my car. Fast forward a couple of years and now I finally had the chance last week. Luckily the PS4S were available and I just love them! Granted this is not the first set of high performance Michelins, I've tried the PS2 N2/N3 and the PS4S on my other vehicles. But having these on RS has been brilliant as they really transfer the power and agility of the engine and the all wheel drive system to the road so effortlessly. Rain or shine they bring a smile to my face after every drive so far. They are not only quieter, more compliant and more predicatable than the Pirelli's but they also feel and look good too!

AMAZING TIRE!

I've had the PS4S' installed for a few months now and what a difference in performance. The grip is unreal compared to my previous max performance tires. They're great in the rain as well. The most impressive quality, to me, is how much smoother and quieter they are. This is just an amazing tire!

More than just superior handling

I switched to the PS4S from an OEM run-flat, high performance summer tire of a different brand. We went on a 1,400 kilometre trip soon afterward that included western mountain roads, where the Michelins were outstanding. They took our sports car to a new level! Bonus: they ride much better, transmit less road noise, and do not ‘tramline' (lurch into pavement grooves and sags). They were well worth the price.

Great Traction Great Road Noise

Bought the PS4S at the beginning of summer with much excitement and after three balancing, two alignments I have concluded the price of traction is road noise and high frequency vibration. Super disappointed that these tires transmit so much road noise through the steering wheel that as much as I enjoy that these tires can hookup and handle 680HP, I have been looking forward to putting on my winters for a smoother ride. Missing my Super Sports.

Completely Changed the Driving Dynamic of my Benz

I'm always amazed at how tires can completely change the driving dynamic of a car. When I purchased my Mercedes-Benz a year ago it came with the original OEM run-flat tires which were absolutely horrible. They gave such a harsh and noisy ride which one wouldn't expect from a luxury car. However after replacing all 4 tires with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S it now drives incredibly smooth and quiet. I feel like I have a brand new vehicle. This is how I wanted it to drive from the beginning. The handling is more predictable and solid. I even feel secure and sure-footed when driving in the rain. The thought of trading it in for a newer model crossed my mind a few times prior to getting the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S but now I've decided to hold on to it because it drives so well!

Confidence inspiring!

Changed out from the stock run-flats, which wore out so quickly and developed a drone overtime, to the Pilot Sport 4S. Cannot imagine going back at this point. Smooth, quiet, yet far more sticky which helps boost the confidence of the vehicle! Will definitely buy more in the future.

PS4S - Great for track and street

bought the tires last summer 2020 and been perfect for street tires. words of cautions. - first 100 km, the tires feel like hockey puck. only after heat cycle aka after around 150 - 200 km of driving, you can feel the stickiness of the tires on street on the track in CTMP/ Mosport , I need to cycle of track run on normal speed to warm uo before going high speed.
