Terrible Tires

I had these tires installed on my 2016 Dodge Challenger Hellcat. The road noise was ridiculous loud and the ride quality was terrible. I could not get any traction between 0 and 80 mph. At 80 mph on the interstate if I floor the gas the car slides all over the interstate. I tried different amounts of air pressures between 35 psi and 50 psi and nothing worked. I used these tires for 2 weeks on days between 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit and could never get any proper traction. I do not recommend these tires for any Hellcat drivers. I did not use these tires under any race conditions. Only driving around town and on the interstate.

Changed my car

I purchased a 4Matic MB Coupe fitted with the Michelin Primacy tires. I switched to a set of Pilot Sport 4S tires to achieve better handling. The 4S gives a much more supple ride and greatly improved handling. The difference was significant and dramatic in ride quality and handling as if I was driving a different car. Note, I live in the south and really only drive the car in warm, dry weather. When things get cold and/or wet I drive an all-wheel drive vehicle with Michelin Defender LTX M/S which are awesome.

Lifelong customer

I remember going with my dad to get tires on the family car when I was a kid. He told me Michelin were the best tires made. On the way home he was so excited and couldn't stop pointing out to me the qualities of the tire. Now as an adult, all I mount is Michelin. Even if money's tight at the moment and new tires are needed, I mount Michelin. Ive had luxury sedans, luxury coupes, and sports cars. Currently I am running Pilot Sport 4S with a spare set in the garage just in case. Even when the tires are completely worn, they keep you fully confident. Michelin should sponsor me given how much I brag about their tires to everyone who brings up the subject.

Michelin Pilot Sport 4S - best tires

I have been a long time Michelin summer tire customer starting with the Pilot Super Sport model. I have used these on Audi A4, BMW 335i and FR-S. I have been using the Pilot Super Sport 4S on Mercedes SLK55, Jaguar XFR and Range Rover Sport. I have tried other tires including Pirelli PZero, but prefer the Michelin for the handling in wet/dry, cornering and less noise. I would recommend these tires to others.

WOW

Bought these tires yesterday. Replaced the Hankook tires that had 27,000 miles on them. They are ok tires but the PS4S are amazing. Super quiet, firm on the ground and totally changed the dynamics of my Audi TTS. Now I know I have only had them for 1 day, but had to express my enjoyment!

Best Tires Ever!

I cannot describe enough how these tires make my 2019 Dodge Charger 392 Scat Pack drive. They belong on this car from the factory, but I am happy to see and feel the difference now! These tires run perfectly over the imperfections in the road, handle very crisply on turns and acceleration, but the most important to me is the steering response. The wheel input is immediately translated into the tire to the road and that to me is the best feature. These tire could only last 10k miles and I would buy them again and again. Thank you Michelin for the best tire for my car ever.

225/19 from France 255/19 from USA

Service Adviser had to explore several distributors before he could find staggered set for my M3. We both got a chuckle when we discovered the front tires were from France and the Rear Tires were from the USA. Happy with the sidewall aesthetics. First ten miles have been fine @ 55F Of course wouldn't you know that I change my summer tires and now we have snow on the way to South. Winters late hurrah 2017

Amazing wet and dry performance

I just got my first set of Michelin tires and they were these Michelin pilot sport 4 s tires. I've gotta say I was on the fence because of the price but as soon as you experience the capabilities of this tire and regret is instantly gone, it's been pouring rain the last week every day and not once has my confidence dropped while driving on these tires and in dry weather the level of performance is absolutely incredible

Jaw Dropping

I purchased these tires for my '14 Audi S5 and am blown away at the performance. My car had been modded so it's putting down close to 500HP and these tires have literally transformed the way it handles in the corners. Audi's in general (as any Audi Enthusiast can tell you) are plagued by understeer and cornering performance suffers. Initial I upgraded the H&R Springs and Trak+ spacers which made a big difference and I was happy for a while with the stock Dunlop Maxx GTs that came stock on the car. However, once I put these on this summer - it's like I did the next level upgrade - and now my confidence in corners is through the roof. I cannot recommend these tires any higher and I am an avid car enthusiast and tried many high performance models. Don't even think about purchasing another make and model. Buy with confidence and watch you car's handling transform!

Benchmark summer tire

Having owned 3 types of Michelin tires on my Audi S6 I can confidently say this tire is the benchmark for Preformance vehicles. My introduction to Michelin started with the AS3+ which was a great tire for dry, wet and occasional snow. After wearing through these tires which are now discontinued I decided to opt for the revised AS4. Unfortunately I found these tires to be quite a downgrade compared to the AS3+ for enthusiastic driving in dry conditions especially in corners. Living in California, I decided to run a summer tire year round and replaced the AS4 for a set of PS4S. These tires are fantastic. The grip these tires provide in cornering and acceleration is very impressive. The tires feels planted and confident at autobahn speeds and are responsive enough in corners to get on throttle far sooner than any other tire I have had on this car. Well done Michelin, I will be purchasing these again.
