Completely shredded - Not worth the price, even unsafe

Had these tires for 20k miles. At about 15k, both front tires had large sections of tread torn off. Good track while they last, but catastrophic failures. Would not let me review tires bought in 2022 - even this this is a part time driven car.

Beware.

I have had to buy 3 of these tires during the first year of ownership of my brand new car. They are expensive and nails, pot holes, bumps, etc, pop them very easy and they wear pretty quick from normal driving. I don't go to the track.

Indifference. Don't know what to make of it.

These were the original tires that came with my Mercedes GLE53 AMG Coupe. I have about 15000 miles on them but I'm see the following issues in the sidewall of the front tires. Not sure if it's wear issue or something else...

Failed to withstand a flat head bolt

After 85 days, this tire took on a flathead bolt. The picture does not make sense. My local tire repair center patched the tire; however, I am alert for further problems.

Frrh, it is unfortunate that this occurred, especially with such a new tire. Road hazard injuries are not always repairable. Fortunately yours was.

Pilot sport 4 Summer tires

After exchanging the all season tires to the summer tires, the grip and performance on summer version tires is a big difference. Soo much better. Bravo

Good tire all around

Great tires for daily or track or they stick well in cornering on dry or wet conditions other than they don't last that long and are not cheap. Good for sports car

great tire but not very enduring

great tire but not very enduring. extraordinary dry/wet handling. no hydroplaning. grips curves well beyond the limits. except that after 12,000 km, only 5/32 remains. not very durable and very expensive

Michelin’s are great!

Bought these in June, 2021 for my BMW 650i and then bought another set of Michelin’s in July for my X3! Performance and ride is great, as is wear so far.

Unexpectantly good…. even in the pouring rain.

At the suggestion of Sipan Tire, I put these on the XKR this time. In a word: Wow. Directional, stick like glue, comfortable and quiet. I was worried that summer rated tires wouldn’t do well in March in Canada. It was all for not.

NOT the greatest "All Season" tire

Good for summer/wet weather, but you should NOT use these in the extreme cold winter months we see in the Midwest. The rubber compound in these tires will harden and, potentially, crack.

bob27, Michelin Ultra High Performance Sport Summer tires use tread compounds that are optimized for maximum dry and damp grip in temperate conditions. As the temperature of the compound nears freezing, the grip level of the tire begins to degrade. Michelin does not recommend using UHP Sport Summer tires when temperatures drop below 40 degrees F or on snow and ice. At temperatures below 20 degrees F, Michelin UHP Sport Summer tires may develop surface cracks in the upper sidewall and tread area if flexed. Do not use, roll or drop Michelin UHP Sport Summer tires with temperatures below 20 degrees F. If tires have been cooled to 20 degrees F or less, let them warm up in a heated space to at least 40 degrees F before being installed or moving a vehicle on which they are installed. Do not apply heat or blow heated air directly on the tires. Always inspect tires before use. Never use a tire with freeze cracks, breaks or damage to the sidewall or tread. If in any doubt, please consult your local Michelin contact or call Michelin Consumer Care at 866-866-6605.
