Excellent tires!

I have a set of 255/35 and 275/30 on my 2005 M3 ZCP that I mainly use as a daily driver I absolutely love these tires they hold up well, grip superb, and after a few month and a few thousand miles later they still look and handle like I just put them on. Only complaint I have is why I never got these sooner and why wernt they free

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.

Much better than OEM

I need replacements for my Cadillac CTS-V which eats tires. There are few good run-flat options that are also high-performance tires. I decided to go with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports after reading a lot of good reviews on them. So far performance wise they have been great, low noise, and very sticky in the dry. I don't drive this car in the winter snow, so I cannot comment on wet or cold weather performance. I haven't done a lot of mileage so I also cannot comment on wear, but after some "spirited" driving, they have held up well. I gave up on the run-flat option, and just carry a can of fix-a-flat in the trunk. The better ride is worth the trade-off. If they wear well, I would definitely buy these tires again.

Outstanding handling and performance

I run the Super Sport on a 2018 BMW M6, and I wouldn't consider any other tire for that vehicle. I've tried Firestone, Continental and Hancook, and none of them handled nearly as well as the Michelin. The rubber is soft so you don't get great mileage out of them, but if you're buying a tires for that reason get a Honda. The BMW is all about performance, and this the tire that will handle the best.

perfect tire for 911

This spring, I put a set of Super Sports on my Porsche 911 C2S. It is like having a new car. The PS2s that were on the car before were good, but these are much, much better. The handling is crisper and the ride is smooth and quiet. These are the best tires I have ever had on any car.

Transforms good into wow

Got a new 2011 Audi A4 loaded. The car handled ok until the sidewall blew out on 1 tire at 6k miles. Researched 245/40 R 18 fitments and saw the rave reviews about the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tireline. Bought the tires and they transformed the ride, which was already good. As the ratings show some comfort is lost but handling particularly into corners is top notch. The first thing you notice after driving a few miles is that the tires are warm and become very sticky and picked up grit off my driveway. I was already feeling like an F1 driver! If I wanted to wander up and down the freeway all day then the 30k warrantly might scare you off but as I do 10k miles a year I wanted to get everything out of the car as these tires allow me to do that.

Excellent

Had this put on my 2010 Corvette Grand Sport and man what a difference! The original tires were the worst tires I have ever owned in that whenever they hit an imperfection, or a grove in the road, it would slam you to that side. With these tires the car feels like a completely different car, great ride and no pulling to one side or the other. I was going to sale my car but now I'm keeping it!

Great tire besides comfort

Expected more but a great tire in the dry and wet. I am amazed at how well it does with both. The comfort is way below the rating Michelin gives in my opinion. It has been the most harsh tire I have had so far comparing to other summer sport tires in its class. Besides the comfort level everything is amazing and also the tread life compared to others in its class, seems to last around 50% longer than tires that are just as good performers in the dry.

PIOLOT SUPER SPORT...WOW!

I have a 2003 BMW 530I w/ sport M suspension. As soon as I installed Michelin Super Sports my car evolved to the next level. They are very smooth riding and quiet yet are great for aggressive handling. So far, minimal/very good wear. I would buy again.

Be a Hero

This is the very best street tire ever made. Wet or dry, there is no street tire which sticks better, is more perfectly round, or wears more evenly. Do not expect 30k miles: I get about 15k miles. I do not do burnouts or other silly things. I am a racer, and an instructor of road racing and high performance driving, and have done these things for many decades. I'm also a certified master tech...and I know tires VERY well. Once you've driven on these tires, you really can't bring yourself to buy anything less....I am on my fifth set, and the only time I take them off my car is when winter comes. Exactly as advertised, these tires will bring you to a dead stop if you try using them in the snow. But they'll make you a hero in the wet or dry!
