Great Tires!

Michelin is by far THE best tires for a Mercedes C300. I couldn't wait to make a purchase to replace the subpar tires I had from the used car dealership. My Pilot Super Sports feel like riding on a cloud or walking in a pair of Cole Haan shoes. Nothing but the BEST! You can't go wrong with Michelin.

Amazing!

These tires are just phenominal! I've always had issues with no traction in 1st or 2nd in my boosted 350z. Now I can go half throttle in 1st and full throttle in 2nd with these tires. I have no traction issue while makign 487rwhp/468trq. Great tires and I recommend these to every and anybody!

Amazing tires.

I bought these to be my 3-season tire for my 2006 Audi A4 Avant. After 25,000 miles and life still to go, I cannot fathom how sticky these tires were. I say "were" because I got a nail in the sidewall last week and couldn't find a replacement set quick enough. Road feel is exceptional with these tires. Incredibly communicative. The grip is nothing short of exceptional. I could turn hard enough at autocross events to lift both my inside tires if I wasn't careful. Compared to the PS2, these really need some heat in them to perform optimally. I also think their hydroplane resistance is not as good as a normal PS2. By no means is it bad, but driving back to back you can tell a difference. With that said, these things grip sooooo much better in the dry than my PS2's ever did.

Fantastic grip in wet and dry conditions

In my opinion these are the best tires in both wet and dry conditions! Better wet weather traction then the various "all season" tires I have used, and fantastic dry weather cornering and handling. I have also had excellent tread wear for a performance tire. This tire is a winner!!

2008 BMW M3

I originally acquired the car with a staggered setup and PS2 tires. I thought the PS2's were the bomb until I needed to replace them with Pilot Super Sports. Michelin keeps stepping up the bar on these high performance tires. Excelent ride handling and wet weather performance.

Great tire for the Acura TL

I just purchased a pre-owned 2006 Acura TL last year, but it needed new tires asap. After doing some research on-line I found several performance tests of the Super Sport, so I figured I would give them a try. I will say that the dry weather performance is outstanding and the wet weather performance is just as impressive (Wet get a lot of rain here in Florida!). The only downside is the wear. With less than 20K miles I had to replace my tires. The tire store did give me credit towards the new set, but it was an expense I was not ready for. I may rethink my next set for something a bit longer lasting as I do a lot of highway miles. Still, for any performance car, I would say give these tires a try at least once.

Far superior to the old tires!

We chose the Pilot Super Sport tires based on the sales reps recommendation and our good experience with Michelin's in the past. The original tires on our 2012 G37 were very noisy, rough riding and pulled left or right with steering wheel input. The new Super Sports are extremely quiet and smooth riding (for a high performance tire) and have exceptional grip! While these tires are new, we are confident that we will enjoy them.

Finally, a tire that lives up to its rep

Finally, a tire that lives up to the on-line reviews I have read. The previous tires on my 08' Mercedes E350 w/ sport suspension were extremely noisy and although they had plenty of tread I couldn't take the noise after 15K miles. The Pilot Super Sports are quiet and grip the road well. I can't comment yet on how much life I will get, but thus far I couldn't be more pleased with the purchase. My Mercedes dealer recommended these tires initially.

I love these tires

I bought a set of 4 Super Sports for my 2006 BMW 330i and I couldn't be happier. I swap them on every summer (set of PA3's for my winter set) and they never fail to be awesome. They have insane grip, great wet performance and didn't even hurt my fuel economy. Five stars all around!

Great Tires for a Sports Car

I have Pilot Super Sports installed on my 2020 Toyota Supra Prem 3.0. 255/35/R19 on the front and 275/35/R19 on the rear. I have had the car on curvy roads and at speed. They are solid, feel solid, and hold the road extremely well. They provide a feeling of confidence when the performance point is at a level is where it counts. While I can't speak for him (other than that he also thinks that the tires are very good), my neighbor has Pilot Super Sports installed on his Porsche GT4, as well. We're a neighborhood commercial. ;-) [When I spec my car on the Michelin site for this tire, however, it says that it does not have a recommendation for my year/make/model/trim. Since they come installed from the factory - can't get a higher recommendation that that - you might want to address this.]
