THE BEST FOR MY LADY "G"

Wouldn't have any other tire, especially with a sports car like my Mercedes Benz. The brand itself is why I chose Michelin. The ZR rating that the SL500 needs is met by this brand. I believe in this brand, have owned Michelin tires before on other Mercedes I have owned.

Pilot Super Sport

I chose Michelin Pilot Super Sport to replace G-Y "run-flat" tires on my 2007 Corvette. Although Michelin makes Pilot Super Sport tires in many sizes. Michelin does not make size 285/35zr19 available for Chevrolet. (in efforts to drive the sale to Michelin's run-flat series?) I was therefore forced to purchase a smaller size 275/35zr19. I still prefer the Super Sport tires. They are much more comfortable to ride, make the car perform with much more agility. I only wish they made them in the correct size to fit my car.

As Good AS It Gets

First foray into Michelin car tires was on a 2001 Volvo I purchased in late 2000, I think they were MXV all season sport radials. On a trip home from family on I-95 North, I was behind a large truck that concealed a giant car-swallowing pothole, there was NO TIME to react all I could do was tighten the grip on the steering wheel and pray. I was sure we were going to crash from the impeding puncture. The impact was so horrendous my teeth gnashed against each other. Amazingly, the car kept going straight, no flat. When I managed to pull off the highway I could see the left from rim had a 3 inch crack in it. But the Michelin tires DID NOT BLOW OUT. What price can you put on saving your entire family? Michelin, (to borrow Volvo's slogan) "FOR LIFE!" Fast Forward to 2011 and acquisition of an '06 E55, a monster of a car. One set of Pilot Super Sports and here goes. My Michelin Pilot Super Sports have not let me down in the several months I have owned them. I am a very aggressive north east driver with a very stout '06 E55 AMG beneath me. This car can rip mortal tires to shreds under acceleration and braking. I have yet to under-brake going into a bend, come out of a hard accelerating corner sideway and in fast sweepers the heavy (4400 lbs) car does not wander, waver of drift off line. Truly a remarkable piece of technology. I literally trust my life to my Michelins. ** [I dont condone speeding to anyone, a hi-perf car doesnt give you skills to stay safe, not even 21 years of racing will, but the latter does help with instant decision making.]

I'll never buy another brand again!

It was time to start searching for tires for my BMW 550i. Based off my experience with my X5 (Michelin MXV4+), I knew that I absolutely loved Michelin's quality, performance, comfort, and overall feel. In my search for tires I discovered there was a new animal in the game, the Pilot Super Sport. After reading reviews from many of the major automobile magazines, I decided to get the PSS. WOW!!! These tires are amazing! It's hard to believe that Michelin could produce a better tire than the PS2, but they did! In fact, not only is it a better performing tire in every aspect, it gets 10% better mileage on the road and 50% better mileage on the track! 100% satisfied with my purchase and Michelin has gained a customer for life!

Pilot Super Sport on 2010 Vette. NOT happy.

I'm going with average because the rear tires are okay but the front have worn away to-no tread on front right tire & almost no tread on front left front in only 2,000 miles! The rear tires are just fine. Got a 4 wheel alignment with the install so I do not understand why the front are already bald!

Best Tire Ever!!!

One of best wet traction tires on the market. Feels like the roads are dry when it raining like crazy. Best handling tires on the market also. Makes the car handle like it's on rails. I recommend these tires for the best summer tires out there. BEST Choice EVER.

Simply Super

I bought these tires to replace my Pilot PS2's, and so far they have been worth the money. They give my car a lot of grip around the corners. They also have been pretty good in rain. I can't comment on wear life because I haven't had them to long, but they don't seem to have lost much tread. Would recommend these to anyone who has a sports car that they want to get a little more performance out of.

Best Street Tire in the world !

I used this Michelin Pilot Super Sport size 225/40ZR18 on my 2013 Honda Fit. No matter how hard I drive this car on the corner, never once this tire let go ! The Grip is tremendous, the ride is as comfortable as the stock tire, and the noise level is acceptable ! I think this is The Best Street Tire in The World !

Great performance tire.

Purchased these for my Charger SRT8 last year. These are by far the best performance tires I have ever owned! These are summer tires only, I would not recommend these in winter conditions. These tires are very predictable at the limit and great in wet and dry conditions. I will purchase again.

Tires deliver performance & durability

I had my Lexus GS tires replaced in 2012 per dealer's maintenance recommendation. Ever since then, I can feel noticeable change maneuverability: The more precise angle, the stability on muddy and rainy roads. With the new set of Pilot Super Sport tires, driving my Lexus becomes an unforgettable experience!
