Initial Reactions

Purchased set for daughter's Jetta Sportwagen 2.5 last month & was impressed. Just put a set on my Jetta TDI Sportwagen and am very impressed. Ride is much smoother than with OE tires, and it is quieter. Car now also corners much better--much better. Braking is superb! Will follow up after several thousand miles.

Worth the wait! Amazing tire.

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!

On cadillac sts

I installed Michelin AS3 on my 07 sts , they work as advertised, Excellent performance in all conditions My only complaint is minor the rear tires are 285/40x18 On 9 1/2" rims and road noise is a little distracting but true to Michelin standards they are smooth and responsive in turns and when I'm standing on the gas peddle. I've turned 18000 kms and still Have 7/32" tread showing ...for a performance all season tire They are awesome !!

Great tire if it lasted

I love Michelin tires and when I got my new Audi A6 in 2014 I pulled the stock tires and out these on as they had great reviews and I always felt Michelin tires are superior. Well,these tires ride and handle great and are quiet. I was shocked when I was in for an oil change at 14,100 miles and they told me I need tires soon. 4/32 on two tires and 5/32 on the other two, what? I had pure summer tires that held up better than these. Also,had a competitors UHP A/S uni-directional tires that cost half as much that lasted far longer than these. Considering the Michelin price premium I will be replacing these with anothe brand soon. If you do not mix them wearing out early then these are great tires, otherwise find something else.

Wow, very impressed

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!

I would buy this product again and again

I have owned several corvettes and the first thing I change is the tires to run flat pilot sports. The car handles much better but the reason I buy them is for the quiet ride! I can actually talk to the passenger with the radio on! This is the BEST tire made!!!!

Pilot Sport A/S 3 tread wear

I am a traveling sales rep with most miles being freeway highway miles. I was very disappointed in this tire. I have less than 22 miles on my tires, and my treads are worn and it has been suggested by my car servicing station that I frequent often as well as tire retail shop where I purchased, that my tires are worn, and need to be replaced. I am extremely disappointed and have expectations that Michelin should review and assist with replacement, warranty was 45,000 miles and I would think when frequenting mainly freeways I may even receive more. I ask that Michelin work with me and contact me on this issue.

Outstanding Performance Handling

These tires handle beautifully under hot/dry as well as hot/wet conditions (and cold), can be pushed to the car's limit without problem, and have tread-life much longer than I would have expected for such a performance tire. Although not great in snow, they can do it, even with a rear drive sports car, on the banged-up US freeways! Comfort is the best I have had in a performance tire, by far.

I had high expectations for this 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.

Louder than expected, worse gas mileage

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.
