Good Tires but not much time with them Yet

I bought these tires a few weeks ago. They are on a 2014 Porsche Boxster. I like the handling so far. I noticed that they feel loose when they are cold but seem to get stickier when warmed up. Still too early to say how they are overall as I have no experience in wet conditions yet and less than 1000 on them.

The Best all around tire

I've had the Pilot Sport 4S on my BMW 1M for about 3 months. These are outstanding. I was particularly impressed by the incredible performance and road holding in the rain. Too bad they don't make these in 285 or 295s otherwise I would've bought them for my 911 4S (would've been match made in heaven)

Stones stick in the tread and damage the tires

I replaced the tires with the All Season verison after 75 miles. Tires pick up small stones and the stones leave holes in the tread when removed. The all season version don't pick up stones and are perfect for street driving. These are track tires and shouldn't be sold for street use.

Michelin Pilot SPORT 4S AMAZING WET AND DRY PERFORMANCE

AMAZING WET AND DRY PERFORMANCE. BEST TIRES MY Volvo S60R had on. It is like my car is glued to the road and rides on a track. Handling is superior at any speed or road condition during the summer period. I do not use these tires during the winter time. After 2 summer drivings I would purchase them again and I would not think about any other tire on the market. ; As an additional bonus the tire on my car looks great thanks for all the detailed work on the sidewalls. Thanks Michelin for putting on the market this superior tire.

Awesome!

Just replaced the the P Zeros that came with my 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera with these tires. What a difference! Much better ride and they’re much quieter on all road surfaces. I do not track my car, so I can’t compare the two on the track. But I’m told that they handle as well if not better than the P Zeros.

Helps Make Porsche a Porsche!

Put Pilot Sport 4S on my 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S. It's a proven tire on that car. Performs great. Lots of grip in the dry, and pretty good in the wet, too. Obviously a summer tire and not made for winter or cold conditions. Very happy with the tires!

THE ULTIMATE HIGH PERFORMANCE TIRE!

I am not one just to skimp on tires to save some dollars or whatever “looks cool” I do my reasearch (i.e. reviews, videos, tech speech’s, etc.). After all what is the point of having a performance vehicle if you don’t go for the best in performance tires? The Michelin Pilot Sport 4s are THOSE TIRES! These things are excellent in every way. You notice the grip (and especially in the turns) right off the bat. The sidewallls look outstanding and the other edge channels to me, resemble small lightning bolts which is just another cool thing about these tires. Much quieter and smoother than other performance tires I’ve owned in the past. I’m beyond satisfied with these tires! If you’re on the fence about these, do yourself a great thing and get them! Great in turns, keep you from hydroplaning in the rain and very responsive. You get what you pay for and these are worth it. After all they are Michelin’s. And come with major Kung Fu grip! Drive with peace of mind and confidence with these! Thanks for making a great tire an excellent tire!

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!

XXXcellent road & track tire!

Put a set of Pilot Sport 4 S tires on my Corvette C6 this summer. Quieter on the street than I expected. On the track - wow! I pushed my 'Vette much harder on corners than I ever have before, and still feel like I haven't come close to driving these tires to their limit! Extremely solid traction and control. Can't imagine any tire that could do better.

unsatisfactory

I just replaced the Goodyear tires in our MB S class and I'm shocked to tell you how noisy these tires are! I just drove 150-200 miles and I think I'll take it out ... at this point I'm looking for another option and I'll probably test two or three variants and as soon as I'm satisfied with the performance I'll find it I'll warn my friends to avoid making the same costly mistake as me. On the other S Class car I used the Yokohama brand and they didn't look as noisy as the much acclaimed Michelin Pilot Sport 4S! I will also test SP SPORTMAXX GT which seems to be very quiet and smooth ... even other brands seems to offer good variants.
