I had these once before. They don't have the cool tread in the middle any more in this new version, but they handle as well. They stick to the road like glue. I love to drive and driving curvy mountain roads is a joy with these tires. The only down side is that the mileage expectancy is a little lower than what I usually hope for. These are expensive, but worth it to me to feel safe and know I can drive the mountains with no worries. They are a tad noisier than the primacy tires I had the last go around. Overall I love them.

The Pilot Sport A/S Plus tires previously on my car offered incredibly traction even in packed snow. They did suffer from unusual wear though and for that reason I decided to try the A/S 3 tire. However, shame on Michelin for introducing new Ultra-High Performance tires that go backwards in terms of traction by a fair margin. The tires perform worse than the A/S Plus even in dry/wet conditions and pretty poorly in snow conditions. Yes, overall they are better than typical All-Season tires but I would go back to the A/S Plus tires in a heartbeat.

These Pilot Sport A/S 3 tires are supposedly "Ultra High Performance All Season" but are barely usable on anything but the nicest of summer days. When it is wet, cold, snowy or any weather condition OTHER than perfectly nice and sunny, these poor tires slide all over the place. They have the worst traction in cold than any tire I've ever owned, and by "cold" I mean anything under Fifty Degrees Fahrenheit. That is truly pathetic. Trying to accelerate onto a freeway is a tricky and DANGEROUS proposition for these UHP tires, the back end of my car slides all over the place and just cannot get a grip. Horrid tires, buy ANYTHING else.

I BOUGHT MY FIRST MICHELIN TIRE FOR MY CADILLAC IN 1985 AND HAVE BEEN BUYING THEM SINCE THEN FOR ALL MY VEHICLES. EVEN WHEN I PURCHASE A NEW CAR, I CAN'T WAIT TO WEAR THE ORIGINAL TIRES OUT SO I CAN REPLACE THEM WITH MICHELINS. THE MICHELINS ARE SO MUCH SMOOTHER, QUITER, AND BETTER TRACTION IN WET WEATHER. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO TO MAKE A GREAT TIRE EVEN GREATER.

Purchased tires after reading all the websites and they sounded perfect. They did do a great job through the winter, but after 10k two tire need replaced, and 4k later the other two. Car was aligned at purchase, and tire were rotated at the next oil change. I wish I could say my wife races ever weekend, but just back and forth to work. The OEM tires made to 40k.

Our car: 2008 Mustang Shelby GT500 Convertible with Ford's SVT CAI upgrade (540hp-500pound feet torque). Immediately rode better, smoother and quieter on the new Pilot Sport A/S3. Great traction (mostly dry roads as I try not to use in wet weather conditions). Installed May 2016 so this is second summer of use.

After 3 long months my PS AS3 arrived today. All I can say is what a tire! I put these on my S5 and can't believe the grip, and ride. I previously ran a competitors summer tire but had to sacrifice the poor tread life for grip . After reading the reviews from the testing in New Orleans, I opted to make the change for a long life performance tire. I have only had these one day but I am sold! Way to go Michelin!

Just got these installed today and wow, I can really tell a difference. Purchased them for a 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata Grand Touring and the ride is very smooth. It was raining when I left the tire store and these wide tires have plenty of rubber to grab the road. I really felt safe in the rain. I still can't get over how smooth the ride was. The A/S 3's are a must for a sports car. Very impressed!

Waited for Sport Pilots A/S 3 235 55 18 100v Well worth the wait Great soft feel with all the grip and control needed Car was transformed These tires made a huge difference Braking, cornering and handling improved The straight line ride is luxury smooth No slip or hydroplane in rain My 06 Dodge Charger R/T never was better.

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.
