Very good all season performance tire

Came on new 24 Porsche Panamera 4. Total of 4,600 miles to date. Great handling and good in the rain. Works well on light snow too. Tires are different size front and rear so cannot rotate. Time will tell how long these will last. I would be happy to get 30k miles.

Disappointing Longevity and Performance from Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4

I recently purchased a Tesla model Y equipped with a set of Michelin Pilot Sport All Season tires, compelled by the brand's reputation and the specific design tailored for electric vehicles. Given the premium price tag, my expectations were understandably high, both in terms of performance and durability. Unfortunately, my experience has fallen short in several key areas, most notably in the longevity of the tires, which has left me questioning their value. First off, Michelin claims these tires are engineered to meet the unique demands of electric vehicles, promising enhanced traction, efficiency, and a quieter ride. While the initial performance was satisfactory, providing a decent grip and a somewhat quieter experience, the tires quickly showed signs of wear far sooner than anticipated. The manufacturer advertises a certain mileage expectancy for these tires, but my set began to show significant wear well before reaching even 50% of the promised mileage. This was under normal driving conditions, without excessive hard braking or aggressive cornering that might otherwise justify such rapid wear. What's more frustrating is that when you invest in a Michelin product, especially something as specialized as the Pilot Sport EV tires, you expect durability that matches the premium outlay. Unfortunately, this has not been the case. It's disheartening to see a product from a brand as reputable as Michelin fail to live up to its mileage claim, which is a fundamental expectation for any tire purchase.

Michelin Fails To Live Up To Its Reputation

I brought my 2007 Mercedes Benz CLK 350 in for service inspection as the "brake pad wear" light came on recently. During the inspection, I was informed that the rear tires on the vehicle needed to be replaced. All four of the tires on the vehicle are Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 B 225/45ZR17 94Y XL Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 B 245/40ZR17 95Y XL Michelin Pilot Sport AS 4 B I was shocked by the news that these Michelin tires needed to be replaced, given that the vehicle is driven less than 4,000 miles a year, and the vehicle is almost never driven on the freeway, and is rarely driven above 35 mph on surface streets. I have now confirmed that these Michelin tires were installed by Big O Tires on December 7, 2020, at which time the mileage on the vehicle was 90,415. The December 7, 2020 invoice from Big O Tires states that these tires come with a warranty ("Minimum Mileage Warranty: MFG45"). This past week, on Monday, May 12, 2025, the odometer mileage was recorded as 105,606. Assuming these odometer readings are accurate (which they appear to be), this means the vehicle has been driven a total of only 15,191 miles in the 53 months since these Michelin tires were both recommended and installed on the vehicle in December, 2020. This is under 3,500 miles per year. I have never heard of tires lasting only 15,000 miles, and I certainly did not expect this of a supposed "quality tire" bearing the Michelin brand. Honestly, I thought that I was buying the best possible tires for this vehicle - and, in any event, these were the tires that were recommended by Big O Tires. During my second trip to Big O Tires on Monday, May 12, 2025, I asked about whether these tires came with a warranty, or whether the dealership (Big O Tires) or the manufacturer (Michelin) would stand behind the tires and admit the obvious - that these tires are not supposed to wear out within 15,000 miles of ordinary driving. In my discussions with Big O Tires on Monday, May 12, 2025, I was given the clear impression that there was nothing that could be done for me at the dealership (Big O Tires), and that I was free to take the matter up with the manufacturer (Michelin). This seems strange to me, since these tires were recommended and installed under a warranty by the dealership (Big O Tires), and it is the dealership that promotes the Michelin tire brand. I have now done some basic research on the internet, and it seems that many other customers have complained about these tires wearing out prematurely. The loudest complaints seem to be from customers who likewise cannot believe that Michelin tires would last as little as 15,000 miles. Conclusion The more I consider what has transpired, it is unlikely that I would rely on Big O Tires or the Michelin brand in the future, or recommend them to others.

Great handling & ride

Upsized to 18" wheels & ride is even a bit softer than the AS3's on the 17" wheels. Steering at low speed is a bit heavy with the larger contact patch than the OE 215's. Good grip cold, much better when warm. Side wall flex is a big improvement in cornering.

Amazing tire at a great price.

I waited to purchase these All Season 4's because I previously had the All-Season 3+'s on my last vehicle. I wanted to try the newest version. The A/S 4 is incredible. It feels grippier and more progressive as it transitions in a slide. The grip level is incredible for an all-season tire. And they're very quiet - noticeably quieter than the A/S 3+. As an added bonus, the sidewall and tread of this tire is great looking. Little details like placing the tire warning's along the rim protector as opposed to on the sidewall and the "velvet-look" logos. I'd definitely buy these again and have recommended them quite often.

Hooo Doggies them is good tires

Mounted these tires on my Mazda 3 GT in May of 2021. Got about 7,000 on them now and I have been well pleased with their performance. Seems I chicken out before these things reach their limit as I have yet to have them squawk back to me during sever cornering, severe stopping, severe acceleration, ( well it's a four banger should just call it snappy acceleration).The performance is just outstanding in all conditions. I would like to find some fault with them but I have nothing to complain about. Good job big ol squeezy Michelin Man.

Met Every Expectation

I purchased these tires so that I could drive my Vette so I wouldn't be worried about late season mountain drives. I have just over 2,000 miles on them and couldn't be more satisfied. The ride is great, the handling seems to be better and there's virtualy no road noise.

Great ultra high performance tire

2009 pontiac g8 gt this is my 4th set of pilot sport a/s3 plus and it's a great tire it's on the edge of calling its self a all season tire by the winter it starts to crack from the extreme cold I believe and the tread life is horrible I do less than 12k a year and I only get 2 years out of them but I am a aggressive driver. Traction is great you can really push the car hard and still be comfortable at the limit even in cold weather rain the sidewall is really stiff its great for control but makes it a little ruff over bumps I have tried other tires in the same category or looked into a higher mileage tread life tire but always come back to the pilot a/s3 plus

CRAP-tastic fuel efficiency

2015 Mazda3 sTouring I have about 1000 miles on these, and was absolutely floored when I looked over the difference in fuel efficiency compared to the OEM tires. There is a drop of almost 20%! I checked the tire pressure with multiple gauges (2x analog, 1x digital), so they're not under inflated. The warehouse also inflated them with nitrogen if that makes a difference. I'm doing mostly highway commuting, so the nuances of 'better' handling may be lost on me, but they do feel like when I put my snows on- kind of mushy - on the road. After I get home (about 20 miles), the tires are very warm to the touch, even when it's raining. Don't know what they'll feel like in the summer. The warmth does make sense, if these tires have such a high rolling resistance, the energy is spent as heat. As a commute car, there really does not seem to be any difference in handling wet or dry pavement. There doesn't feel like any benefit to braking, and possibly a decrease in ability to accelerate. I am really disappointed in these tires so far. After reading all the positive reviews, I really wonder if anyone considers fuel efficiency. Maybe wearing these down to the support layers will improve fuel performance, but I'm not holding my breath for that.

Thank you for providing your feedback in regard to your experience with Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires. New tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires. As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases. Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve.

Amazing tires at first AND THEN THEH WERE JUNK

Randomly worn in a section of the tire between the centre and outside edge of the tire. Only had them on my X5 for 25,000 km Always been a fan of Michelin but this is the last set I buy. I don’t even want to attempt a warranty claim because they still aren’t worth it.
