Lots of Road Noise

I bought this 2 weeks ago to replace them with my Goodyear run flats due to the high road noise. The handling and performance of the car improved but the road noise is the same ! Specially the rear tires! Not sure if all of them would be the same or only my set has this problem.

THE ULTIMATE HIGH PERFORMANCE TIRE!

I am not one just to skimp on tires to save some dollars or whatever “looks cool” I do my reasearch (i.e. reviews, videos, tech speech’s, etc.). After all what is the point of having a performance vehicle if you don’t go for the best in performance tires? The Michelin Pilot Sport 4s are THOSE TIRES! These things are excellent in every way. You notice the grip (and especially in the turns) right off the bat. The sidewallls look outstanding and the other edge channels to me, resemble small lightning bolts which is just another cool thing about these tires. Much quieter and smoother than other performance tires I’ve owned in the past. I’m beyond satisfied with these tires! If you’re on the fence about these, do yourself a great thing and get them! Great in turns, keep you from hydroplaning in the rain and very responsive. You get what you pay for and these are worth it. After all they are Michelin’s. And come with major Kung Fu grip! Drive with peace of mind and confidence with these! Thanks for making a great tire an excellent tire!

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.

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.

Amazing tires in all conditions

My BMW M2 came with substandard tires from another company so after 10,000 miles I decided to upgrade to the Pilot Sport 4s and immediately noticed a difference in ride quality, noise, overall grip and handling. I recently drove in monsoon conditions and was amazed at the level of grip in an absolute downpour. I now have 5,000 miles on the 4s. I strongly recommend these tires for anyone seeking the best. I am a believer!!

Not what I expected from Michelin.

Bought two sets of Pilot Sport 4S’s and on my wife’s 335is the rears came apart with the tread separating from the sidewall on the inside of both rear tires. Alignment is perfect, proper tire pressures maintained at all times and my wife drives the car properly and carefully. I don’t understand why this lapse in quality occurred.

Incredible Performance Nissan GT-R

I have had Nitto NT01s and Dunlops from the factory on the car. The way that 4S handle is incredible. lighter feel of the wheel, grip at every temperature, they dont have to be warm. wet weather traction is 95/100 amazing tire. will not use anything else!

Performance and comfort

Traction nd handling on the Michelin Pilot 4S tirs is superb. These tires replaced the original Michelin Pilot 2S on my Porsche and the 4S are stellar on dry pavement and seem to handle even better on wet pavement than than the orignal Michelin's. The 4s also provide a surprisingly quiet and comfortable ride on a high performance tire. I would highly recommend these summer tires for any high performance cars where traction and handling are paramount consideration without comromising on comfort and quiet. Very happy with the Michelin Pilot 4S so far and would highly recommend.

Surprising Failures

I've been a solid Michelin tire fan for almost 9 years. They are the only brand I've really come to trust. But now, I'm starting to lose that trust. I've been running Pilot Super Sports since early 2012, buying both Super Sports for summer & had a set of their All Seasons for winter, going to the Pilot® Sport A/S 3+ in 2016. ALL of their tires performed flawlessly, with great handling, a nice "feel", & long life. Then, even though I had a fairly new set of PSS's, the PS4's came out, so I got a set & had them mounted up & put them on. But now, with under 15,000 miles of use, and 6 to 7 32'nds of tread still there, there are problems. My shop guy who rotates my tires every 3/4 months is telling me that the bands inside 3 of the 4 tires are separating. He's shown me the tires & the uneven surface is easy to see. I haven't felt anything odd or heard any strange sounds though. I'm absolutely baffled by this as I've never any issues with a Michelin tire before. I don't know if it's just a bad set, or a deeper issue. Having read another review here mentioning the same kind of issue, it could be either one, or both. I love Michelin, but am not sure what to make of this.

Outstanding performance!

Got these three weeks ago and well satisfied! Outstanding wet and dry traction performance. Far superior to the Goodyear F1’s. I like them better than the old Pilot Sports but they also perform far better than the Goodyear F1’s. Car has an Edelbrock Blower doing 605 HP. Pilot Sport 4s is up for the opportunity! No problem.
