Great Tire

Used on the street and at the track. Great longevity and very good handling on the track but still good on the street and in the wet on the track. The only way to get a better handling track tire when it is dry is to go to a track/dry only tire and they do not last near as long. You sacrifice a little dry track handling for excellaent longevity and wet performance.

Extraordinary handling

I was impressed with the Pilot Super Sports on my BMW M6 so I bought them for my wife's Nissan 350Z when it came time for replacement of the OEM tires. The car was absolutely transformed! Already a quick handler, turn in became more precise, lateral grip eyeball bending and ride much quieter and smoother. Neither of these cars goes out in winter weather, so the limitations of a tire like this on driving in the snow are irrelevant. I now have Michelins on all 4 of my cars and am completely satisfied. The Pilot SS is the best street tire I have ever experienced.

goodbye runflats, hello Pilo Super Sport

Finally ditched the OEM runflats off my 2011 BMW Z4. These tires have such great lateral grip, on/off ramps will bring a smile. Much quieter than previous tires and of course, gone is that awful juddering across uneven surfaces when turning. Looking forward to finally feeling the car handle as it was designed.

Best tires around

Best tires I've ever owned; I've tried a few different tires for track days and by far these are the best handling and comfort wise . I put about 8k on these and still have 8/32 wear. These are the perfect tire for any driving enthusiast. Definitely will be buying Michelin for my other cars as well. You know their a good tire if Porsche and other high end sport cars put them on as a stock tire . Thanks for making the perfect tire :)

My Mini JCW Coupe is HAPPY NOW!!!

These tires WOKE UP my Mini! The handling is incredible and road noise had dropped over the factory runflats to half or more! Handling is off the charts, compared again to the factory runflats. I now can't wait to drive my car every day! I love these tires!

Superb tires

I purchased the tires in June for my BMW 650i convertible and have driven cross country - some 6000 miles - in the last two months and have beem amazed at the ride comfort, lack of road noise compared to the factory run flats and the handling and grip of these tires. I tend to drive aggressively and the tires have responded well in every situation. Highly remommend these tires.

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.

Wobble under accelleration

A tire I want to love, however on high powered Mustangs and Corvettes they have a wobble issue under acceleration. Sure wish this wasn't the case but it is. Do a search on the internet, it's a common issue. I have a 2014 GT500 and the tires will scare you as they are unstable with 600hp. Traction, handling, wear, all excellent, stability under acceleration poor. Michelin, I'd love to talk to someone about this and get it resolved in a future high performance tire.

Excellent tires

I have a set of Pilot Super Sport in my BMW M3. I am an spirited driver and often drive my car on the race track for HPDE events with several auto clubs. These are the best Michelin that I have ever had. The dry traction is excellent , not to mention the wet traction, it feels like you are driving on dry pavement. They have a very quiet ride for being and extreme performance tire. The gas mileage is great. All in all they are excellent on the street as well as on the track.

Best tire ever

I have driven every top performance tire out there over the past 20 years and the pilot super sport tires are hands down the best tire ever. I have a set of super sports on my Audi R8, when I push the turns very aggressively, I feel totally safe and confident at max G forces, not even a chirp from my pilot sports. I have rented several Audi R8's on the tracks in Vegas, and the R8's with pilot super sports were hands down far superior to all the other top brands for grip, handling, and braking. Keep you and your family safe, use Super pilot sports to avoid the craziness out there.
