Horribly LOUD & NOT LIKE the old wonderful) Michelins

I bought the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 (ZR rated) for my Lexus LS. These tires are SO NOISY!! They are also hard and you feel the shock from rough roads. They are much noisier than my old Michelin tires. However, they are much better than the Michelin Primacy mxm4 A/s which I swapped for the Pilot Sport. AVOID, AVOID, AVOID both the Primacy mxm4 and Pilot Sport. Being EV ready, they are low rolling resistance, hard rubber and LOUD. They do not perform anything like the Pilot Sports of 5-10 years ago, which were stellar tires. I am very, very disappointed. MICHELIN SHOULD HAVE SEPARATE LINES FOR EV AND EFFICIENCY AND OTHER LOW CLASS CARS, AND A DIFFERENT LINE FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT THE WONDERFUL QUIETER, SOFTER AND SMOOTHER TIRES UPON WHICH MICHELIN BUILT ITS PRIOR REPUTION. One positive: it is good that Michelin has its 60 day swap program. Given the poor quality and NOISE of these new Michelin kinds of tires (all of which are designated by Michein as EV Ready), I will probably move to a cheaper tire mfgr whose tires are grippier and not as LOUD and save the money.

Excellent Overall Tire for Mercedes S-Class

I have the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 installed on my 2016 Mercedes S550 4Matic with staggered 19" AMG wheels. My initial impression was that the steering and braking felt more responsive with the Michelin compared to the competitor brand they replaced, but the ride wasn't as quiet or as smooth as I expected from a Michelin on an S-Class. The next morning, I leveled out the air pressure in all 4 tires to my preferred PSI which restored the comfort level. After a few weeks and many heat cycles, there is no longer any noticeable noise. More importantly the tire provides an insane amount of grip on dry and wet roads. The Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 paired with all wheel drive inspires confidence and encouragement for those of us who enjoy spirited driving.

Michelin - Go To Tires

We put these tires on our BMW 328i not long after we purchased the car to replace the awful run-flats. It was an amazing difference in ride and noise level. Our 2020 Honda Accord 2.0 Touring was purchased from a friend in 2022 that had the standard 19 inch wheels. They may be great for performance but they rode like a wagon and were prone to curb rash. We're pretty conservative drivers. Based on our BMW experience, we switched to 17 inch wheels (which seems to be fairly common) and also purchased the Pilot Sport tires for the Honda. The ride quality improved drastically for the better.

Not durable

I'm extremely disappointed with the durability of my Michelin tires. I purchased them just about a month ago, expecting the quality and reliability the brand is known for. Unfortunately, after a very normal driving experience, one of my tires already has noticeable sidewall damage. This was not due to reckless driving, but from a common road condition that any tire should reasonably withstand. For a premium-priced tire, I expected much better durability and resilience. It's frustrating to invest in a trusted brand only to experience damage so quickly after purchase. Tires are supposed to provide safety and peace of mind, and right now, I'm feeling the opposite. I am hoping Michelin will stand behind their product and consider a replacement or some form of support, as this experience does not reflect the quality I believed I was paying for.

Fantastic all-around tire

Excellent tire. The compound is sticky and aggressive while still offering good traction in cold weather. The tires appear to be well made with a very still XL-rated sidewall. Handling is extremely precise and predictable with perfectly controlled behavior when approaching the limits of cornering grip. The tires are very comfortable and pretty quiet for a performance A/S tire. While I cannot comment on tread life or highway stability just yet, no doubt those will meet expectations as well.

Very Poor Tread Life:(

I Purchased Top of the Line Tires $$$ Expecting Top Performance & Quality. (You Get What You Pay For) As For the Performance I WAS Very Happy with the Stopping, Road Handling (in all weather conditions) & over all Smooth Quiet Ride. HOWEVER… As far as the Quality…. Very Poor Tread Life 3 Years and only 13,000 Miles later and I ALREADY NEED NEW TIRES!! Absolutely UNACCEPTABLE!

Safest tire in the market.

The safest tire in the market. I wish you sell 15's and17's for my Smart Fortwo car. All 4 of my other cars use Michelins.

Huge Improvement Over My Previous Tires

I had these tires installed on my WRX and it was such and improvement on the handling, traction and also noise levels (much quieter). The tires are wearing nominally based on mostly city use. I am very pleased with the product.

Great Street Performance Tires

These tires are outstanding. From road feel to traction and handling they have exceeded my expectations. For street tires I don't think you can do better. The 40F limit of temp is something to consider if you are driving in the mountains.

Poor Durability

Quiet with good handling but wore extremely fast. Went to rotate tires after 7500 miles and my rears were a 3 while my fronts were an 8. Didn't last on my RWD BMW i5.
