Awesome ride! I replaced some worn Primacy MXM4 set with the Pilot Sport A/S 3 set. Love the cornering improvement! The ride is as smooth as the Primacy's when they were new, but I think that the grip in both wet and dry pavement is better. Love these tires!

The most responding tire ( a previous Z rated by another manufacturer was wormy and way less direct in comparison). These track superbly. By far less road noise too. The ever so slight firmer city ride is by far outweighed by the safety factor in direct response, highway smoothness. Side walls are firm, I had to replace a previous manufacturer's several times due to bubbling. Even the tire installer said that he felt a huge difference in the side wall thickness to old ones that were Z-rated. I am dying to try them in the snow and wet as I read they are top rated there too. Add long lasting to the mix and you can't beat them. Great Tire.

After many years of owning several sets of the A/S Plus version of this tire, I had high hopes for the A/S 3 when it was announced. I got 53k miles out of my A/S Plus in 245/40-19 front and 275/35-19 rear which is incredible mileage. I drive conservatively (I'm back on my stock sizes of 225/50-18 and 245/45-18) and have only managed to get 13k miles out of the A/S 3's in the rear. I have alignments done regularly and the wear is even. The fronts look nearly new and I don't track my car either. The tire is great in traction and has a nice ride assuming it will last. I had longer life out of the Pilot Sport summer tire on my previous vehicle. This is an otherwise phenomenal tire but the lack of longevity kills it for me on the all season rating. I would expect this from a summer tire but against the backdrop of my experience with the A/S Plus, the very short lifespan is disappointing to say the least.

I have been a long time Michelin purchaser, but the company has out done themselves with the development of the A/S 3. The best thing I like about the Pilot Sport A/S 3 is the non-directional tread. The tires handle superbly and they provide a comfortable ride at the same time. The performance in the rain is second to none for a performance tire. Outstanding product.

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.

Have put 2000 miles on them, they are great tires. Quiet and smooth riding. They hold well in the rain- as you know Mini's are quick turning cars and these tires hold the road. My dad recommended them after finding that Michelin made a lower cost tire that fits my car. I hope to get more than 29k miles which is what I got on the original supplied tires.

I started using Michelin tires in the 1970's when the major retailer I worked for began selling Michielin tires in their auto centre. Since that time, I have been riding on Michelin tires, and have been completely satified with their wear, traction and handling features. Recently, I purchased a set of Michelin Latitude X-ice winter tires. They performed better than I ever expected, which gave me great confidence while driving in all winter conditions. Last month I purchased a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3 (XL). I chose these because I could not obtain a Michelin winter tire for my vehicle with 20" rims, and these are rated "all season". My only complaint is that I had to purchase the Pilots in Michigan, as there were no tires available in Ontario. My wife drives a Mini Van and she is riding on Michelin Defender tires. She has noticed a positive difference in the rain/snow handing of her vehicle with the new Michelin tires. In summation, if you have a choice, choose Michelin!

I bought these tires for my daily driver (2008 Subaru WRX). They work great for my needs. The Pilot A/S 3's are a great mix; they handle like a sport tire, but are higly durable. I've used these tires in rain/snow and they provide great traction. I have not had any problems thus far and really like the tire. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a great all season tire.

Replaced OEM AS which I thought were great tires @ 28,000 miles. The AS3's are head and shoulders above the factory installed tire. They're quiet, grip like crazy in the dry and wet and offer a firm but comfortable ride. I live in the Deep South so snow performance was not a requirement when I purchased these tires. For an MB E Class sedan these are probably the best tires available in the Ultra High Performance category for my driving style and conditions. Without a doubt they're worth every penny spent on them.

I had the A/S 3 tires installed on my wife's 2014 C7 Z51 Corvette when it was delivered in December of 2014. Living in Buffalo, NY I wanted to be able to use the car in late fall and early spring [cold weather, light snow]. We have made two trips to Florida and the tires have performed much better than I expected. They provide a soft, quiet ride. Traction and cornering is very good. Wear is much better than I expected to get on a Corvette. We currently have over 31,000 miles on them and still have over 4/32nd tread depth remaining. I will be replacing these with the new Pilot Sport A/S 3+ before our next trip to Florida.
