I bought the Michelin Pilot A/S Sport 3 in March of 2015 for the rear of the S500 Sport Pkg with 212843 miles. The ride at first was very smooth and comfortable (that's the reason I have stayed with Michelin) but @ 219183 miles the rears are bald, rough riding & cupping - tire centers will not balance the tires saying they are to far gone. I am in Southern Ca. I am extremely disappointed with Michelin for this product, Michelin has been my tire of choice for decades but this speaks to quality- I hope to hear from Michelin - again excellent initial tire for this car but the mileage is horrible. I hope Michelin can correct this issue. Unhappy

My new car came with other than Michelin tires. I tried to get them to change them but they would not. After driving for a month on my 'other than Michelin tires", I returned the car for a change to Michelin tires which at 80 years old, I have always had. What a difference!! Now my new car rides and handles as it should. What a joy. The performance by comparison is a world of difference and all due to my Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3 tires front and back. Thank you and buy this kind, you owe it to yourself to drive in the luxury of Michelin.

Had the dealer put these tires on my 2012 Buick Regal GS after the stock summer performance tires had worn down. Pros: Great grip, good handling, and very nice on wet roads. Cons: SO NOISEY! I've got less than 4,000 miles on them and am going have the dealer take them back. I don't know if I got a bad batch, but I literally cannot stand to be inside my car @35 mph, @ 50 mph or @70 mph. I was hoping after the first couple hundred miles the noise would go away or at least subside, but alas, it has not. My wife refuses to ride in the car on long road trips because the growl/howl of these tires is annoying. I turn my radio up so loud in an attempt to drown out the noise. I am on the fence on whether or not I will get these replaced with another set of A/S 3's (assuming the 4 I got are a bad batch), or try something else. I've always known Michelin to be a great tire as my parents had them on the majority of the Cadillac's they owned without any issue. I gave the comfort portion a "Below Average" grade because riding in the car is far from comfortable. Hopefully the next set isn't as awful...

Terrible in snow starting, stopping or turning. I REALLY hope I don't wreck my car. Any amout of snow....dusting, blowing, 1/4 inch or 3 inches these tires are simply over matched. Ride is rougher too but I assume that will translate into great grip on the corners when we take it to solo2 this summer.

I own a 2009 Bullitt Mustang and enjoy a spirited drive... read I do NOT thrash the car around. I purchased 4 new tires. For tires that claim to be "Ultra High Performance" in my opinion they are not even close. They feel like 6 year old tires. I wish I had more driving time within the first 30 days to return them. I did not... now I am stuck with them. If I had the money I would replace them now. For this car these tires do not live up to their name. Very disappointed.

When I switched from my OEM Michelin RTF to A/S tires, i was expecting smoother, quiter ride. However, overall quality of ride was not as good as the original tires. It was very noisy as well. Had trouble getting replacements within 30 days because of staggered wheel sizes on my BMW sports package and summer tires were out of production. I do not recommend these tires if you have a BMW 3 series with sports package. Heard good review about pilot sport summer tires.

bought these tires for my little Audi A4 at 66000 miles. At 86000 miles my dealer balanced at my request but refused to rotate since the tires are" worn to the wear bar and cupped badly". Loved the quiet ride and road dependability but will sadly took for another brand now. I use the Audi around town 60% and highway 40%. I am very disappointed to be needing a new set of tires.

First Impressions. Just purchased 4 Pilot A/S 3's for my '06 Corvette, Immediately noticed the harshness of the ride was gone, how much more quite the interior was. True I only drove 50 miles on county roads and no interstates. Will see how things go in a couple of thousand miles.

I had read reviews of the back to back comparisons that Michelin did in identical cars late last year with these tires and those of competitors-the reviews. I had to wait for over a month after ordering the tires as they were just being released-I'm happy to report that the wait was totally worth it. These tires have a great balance of comfort (low noise, and smooth) combined with excellent feedback and cornering grip in all conditions. My friend asked if I was even going to put snow tires on this year-not sure I will go that far but may delay just to see how these do. I've already recommended these to several other people, I am very pleased and the treadwear durability expected should outshine the prior competitor tires that were on my BMW 335d M-Sport.

Size: 245/45ZR17, ZR rated Y speed rated. Took the first drive on them, there was a horrendous drone noise over all speeds. Excessive harmonics at 50 – 55mph, and again at 70-75 mph; so loud it’s difficult to hear the radio. Tire needs redesign. Harsh ride due to thicker sidewalls and reinforce bead buildup (creating low tire compliance). Source of noise: Tread shoulder too wide, sipes and grooves on shoulder too wide and rounded, shoulder blocking grooves are normal to the direction of travel leading to tread blocks slapping the pavement. Resolve this noise by angling shoulder grooving between tread blocks. Overall Poor tire due to noise.
