A great tire - if you can actually get your fitment...

This is an excellent tire, and I am sure that the forthcoming 4S will be even better, but certain fitments have been unavailable for 12-18 months, with occasional availability nationally of a few sets every so often ... in particular the 305/30-20 ... No matter how great your product is, its academic if the market cannot purchase your product...

Simply the best for street use!

Oh wow, these are very limited in size. Ok, well the Pilot is Michelin's premiere tire. Other than the cup series which will wear fast and probably not be as good in rain and standing water, this is it. The Pilot Super Sport is the difference in your car handling like the supercar it was built to be and some off-brand tire leaving you with an imprecise mini-van like handling. The Pilot has a firm grip that does not roll over under high g turns and inspired confidence as you enter into a turn at breakneck speed. The PIlot Super Sport handles rain with aplomb as well, as long as you don't let them wear too far down.

2017 Lexus IS350 AWD

Great tire for my car. The car comes with A/S tires and the handing was really limited by this. This car isn't driven in the winter so a A/S tire wasn't necessary. Changed the whole Dynamics of the handling for the better. I understand why Lexus puts a A/S on this model but if you really want to experience the capabilities of this car. Make the switch to Pilot Super Sports.

Super sport

I have these on my 2014 corvette. It's a vette! I'm Canadian and the winters are cold. The tires are by far the best. Not so much spring and fall. They cannot survive the cold. I'm looking into the as3+. I hope they are as good as these super sports.

What an upgrade!

Changed the wheels and tires on my tuned 2015 Subaru Brz, I driven two summers about 30,000 km am smiled on every corner, rain or shine. I am probably replacing them with a new version I'm hearing about when I take her out of storage in April

Best tires for my BMW M3

Super Sports came standard on my 2017 BMW M3 (with competition package) I am soon updating my ECU etc with a Dinan ECU tuner, intake and Heat Exchanger. Traction will become a real issue, so I'm upping my rear 275s to Pilot Super Sport 305s. In spite of my present 507 HP the Michelins really grip the road. In tight corners I feel like I'm on rails.

Blown away

I have them on my 2005 BMW M3 and it's real joy in the long sweeping turns, keeps the car planted all the time. In the rain breaks traction only if I'm trying. The backside is the price I'm wondering when is the new rubber coming the 4s. I would like to have them like a track set

Pilot Super Sport on a Staggered Tesla Model S

First off, I buy and have bought tires from other manufacturers, but I always come back to Michelins... They always have the most consistent wear patterns and dependable grip across all conditions. I use them on my motorcycles where they have literally saved my life and on all my vehicles, to trucks, and our two Tesla Model S'. This review is for the cars, which weigh in a a hulking 4825 and 4945 lbs a piece!!! The Michelin Pilot Super Sports shouldn't be able to carry that kind of load, but they do it easily. We use the power of the electric motors and the rear tires show the burden of that power, but it's not the tires fault. Love them!

New Michelin Pilot Super Sport 4S

I drive a small sports coupe as a daily most of the year and experience nearly all types of driving conditions. So far the tires have lived up their reputation. The performance is second to none - very nice grip, predictable, crisp response to steering inputs and good wet grip. They are a bit noisier than the OEM's I took off, but that's not really a fair comparison at this point. (I didn't buy them because they were quiet either!) For some reason I get a bit more steering wheel vibration at speed - the tire dealer has balanced the fronts twice now. Caveat: I only have put about 250 miles on these bad boys.

21,096 KM and outer tread blocks cracking

Purchased in 2015 and after 21,096km, I discovered deep cracking on outer tread block of of the tires (Super Sports). Tires/alloys are removed for winter and stored in installed garage and still cracked/split. Very disappointed and after buy all Michelin tires (summer and winter) for my 4 BMW's, I am now looking for a new tire brand.
