I had these tires installed on my Audi A6 4.2 and they are a lot noisier than the other tires I have had on this car. The gas mileage is also a lot worse than my previous Michelins. My cabin used to be super quiet and now I hear a loud buzzing noise coming from the front tires.

All of my cars have Michelin tires because I will not settle for less. The A/S 3s had just come out when I bought them. I put them on my E-class to replace my old MXM4s. They are quiet, and handle great. At high speed on the freeway, the car is extremely stable. It hasn't rained in San Diego recently so I can't comment on wet traction. But since it normally doesn't rain here, I'm not too concerned.

Just bought two rear tires for my Lexus IS250. They are very quiet and have awesome grip. They hook up well in the rain as well. My front tires are another brand and now I can hear the noise coming from them compared to the Michelin. The Michelin's live up to their name as far as quiet and smooth ride. That is why they are number one in tires. I always buy Michelin when I can.

Purchased these tires for a 370 Z Roadster. They replaced the OEM tires which had 24K. I have approx. 450 miles and so far I am very impressed. Even in a Roadster, I can tell that these tires are quieter and the ride, grip, and handling have all improved over the replacements. I highly recommend these tires. Will post again after about 5K miles.

Had 225x50 R18 Pilot Sport A/S 3's fitted to my Infiniti G35XS two months ago. Great improvement over the OEM tires - very responsive in dry conditions, sure footed in the wet with a smooth and quiet ride also. Price was very reasonable compared with competitive tires in this size. Definitely happy with my purchase so far - we'll see how they perform when the snow arrives.

Since 1983, I've exclusively purchased Michelin tires which, until now, never disappointed me. Although the Pilot Sport A/S 3 tires handle well, they've significantly reduced my Honda Civic's gas mileage by 10-12%. The drop in mileage began immediately after these tires were installed. I keep my vehicle in top mechanical shape and ensure that all maintenance schedules are followed, so there is no doubt that the drop in mileage is due to these new tires. My original tire choice was the Primacy MXM4 205/55R16 tires. Unfortunately, Michelin had no inventory available for many months. Just my luck, because the Primacy MXM4's are now available!

I purchased a 2005 Crossfire from an auction almost 4 years ago. It had sluggish handling and a rough ride. I was concerned about the right front tire and thought it was brake issue. However, when my mechanic checked, he called and said "It's the tires." He recommended the Pilot Sport A/S 3. I thought I was driving a brand new car. The handling was superb, the road noise was minimal and it was like driving on cloud. I love the tires and would buy another set if needed.

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 bought my first set of Michelin Pilot A/S Radials at 50,000 Kilometres and I am still using them today at 122,000 kilometres! I have owned them now for 8 full years and have never had tires as smooth riding or had better handling characteristics than these! They have just worn down now to the tread wear indicator bars and I will definitely be buying another set soon. I am totally sold on Michelin for qua;ity, safety, performance and long-life! I will not buy any other brand ever! They are well worth the asking price!

I have a 2014 MINI Roadster S. I have been driving since 1962 and autocrossing with success since 1995. I have driven on extreme performance tires, r-compound tires, and racing slicks, both dry and wet. Yesterday I brought home a set of 205/50-16 A/S 3's in the rain. Today it rained harder and I found the standing water puddle on my most driven back road. I heard the right front tire violently cutting through the water at 60 mph but it didn't even tug on the tire nor slow the car as that friendly puddle has always done before. The steering is light. Partly due to 10.5mm of tread and partly due to surprisingly low rolling resistance. Turn in is immediate. Well, surely there must be an actual delay but it is too small for me to perceive. Grip is somewhere well beyond the level I am willing to risk on a public road. They simply track no matter how fast I dare corner with them at gendarme and bad karma attracting speeds. For reference, the car on OEM tires understeered if I tried to have much of any fun cornering. That is, the tires lost grip and the car ran wide which is especially unnerving in a right hand turn with oncoming traffic. These are serious performance tires oh so well suited to a MINI driven in all weathers except snow blizzards and subzero temperatures.
