Oustanding commuter

Installed these on my daily driver. I average about 400 miles per week. These tires are extremely quiet, provide a soft ride and handle well on dry, wet, and snow packed pavement. I have put about 7000 miles on these tires in all types of conditions and am very pleased with the performance.

Pilot Sport A/S 3 on Volvo V50 T5

I have much all weather experience driving in Maryland and I am not an aggressive driver but I do like the feel of a sportier tire and do like to throw the car through turns for fun. I previously had two sets of Conti DWS. The DWS do everything pretty well including snow. But, they offer little excitement. I didn't realize this until I got the Michelin Sport A/S 3. The A/S 3 is a very responsive tire than handles incredibly well in dry or wet. The only down side to the tires that I have found is snow traction where they fell short. My A/S 3's are well into the wear indicators and still handle great even in wet. A/S 3+ here I come!

AWESOME TIRES ON CIVIC SI !!!

Ditched the factory Michelin HX MXM4 tires after only 36k due to wear and dry rot. New Pilot Sport AS 3 tires are just AWESOME. Tremendous grip dry and in rain. Smooth and quiet. Really made the wife's Civic SI feel like a go cart. Hope to get 40k + miles on these tires. Almost went with Pilot Super Sports for ultimate grip and ride but the wife wanted all season tires even though this car gets stored during winter.

Michelin quality the best

Purchased a new set of wheels with bigger diameter, so I need it to buy a tire with lower profile . I went from aspect ratio 55 ( also Michelin ) to 45 and I was shocked to see that the ride comfort remained the same, while the handling was unbelievable. I made tests and even post videos on net with the results. They also have a lip that protects the rim from curb marks, very clever. Good price too.

Won't Last to Mileage Estimate

Bought Michilin Pilot Sport AS+ May 2012 with 45,000 mile warranty (235/50ZR18). Have driven 35,500 miles and purchse retailer now says I need new tires. Driving is around suburbs with no long road-trips and the car has been into purchase retailer 7 times for rotate/balance/align as required. Warranty appears to be much less than was represented by sales retailer at time of purchase. Product has lasted 21% less than the expected miles and yet the customer satisfaction credit is only11% of the purchase price of the new tires or 9% of the original tire price (sales retailer is recommending Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3 235/50R18 for my current replacement). I liked the way the car drove with these tires. Especially happy with snow performance as they handled well. But I am upset that the verbal warranty explanation was so much better on the sales end than the reality on the other side. It seems to me that the customer satisfaction discount on the new tires should be double what it is.

Got a GREAT Tire

The AS 3 was recommended by my tire dealer and I'm glad I took his advise. Two days after installation left for 12 day trip to Ohio from NJ. Drive, drive, drive. Great tire on dry and wet roads, highway and/or local traffic and speeds. Gripped like a Tiger, loved them.

Terrible

I totally agree, 3 season tire. VERY scary in even the lightest snow. Wet and dry weather is great...go figure. These tires inspire so much confidence in wet and dry that they caught me off guard when it started to snow. This is totally a stiff UHP summer tire that actually works great in very cold weather as long as you don't get any snow. Too early to tell how they wear etc. All I buy is Michelin tires so this is a huge let down for me. I need MORE brand new tires now and another set of rims. :(

Did not last long

I'm now in the market for new tires. I had these tires on my Ford Fusion -- purchased 6/9/15. I put no more than 24 K on these tires during that time but was told two months ago that I needed to consider new tires and today failed the state inspection because my tires are past due to be replaced. I came here to look for the warranty on mileage because I spent way too much for these tires that lasted the shortest amount of time of any tires I have ever purchased in 30 years of driving. Very disappointing.

Incredible handling

I currently have the most humble of vehicles, a 2000 Saturn LW1 Wagon. It has gone through some personality changes, Koni Sport Struts, Carbotech custom Autocross brakes and now 17" rims wrapped in Michelin AS3 215-45/17 glory. These tires are on par with my 18" Pilot Sports that I had on my 96' Mustang and now my humble wagon grips, stops, handles like a dream. Better than my Mustang and my Z. If these tires can transform my ride into something fun.... Worth every penny.

Good, but some concerns/issues

Awesome tire in terms of cornering and braking, and they are UNBELIEVABLE in the rain - hopeful they perform as well in Minnesota winters. My primary issue with the tires are that they grab every imperfection in the roadway and track so the amount of steering correction isn't always fun to manage. I also had to have them re-balanced and still have some minor vibration through the steering wheel and chassis. The retailer advises the balancing was only off by 1/4 oz on one wheel and slightly more on another and run-out was well within spec, but I still am annoyed by the vibration since the previous OEM tires rode so well. I sure hope they smooth out or it will be a love/hate relationship to 45,000 miles.
