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.]

best tire ever amazing grip, amazing conering grip ,very quiet and they're comfortable.by far the best tire I have ever bought. I currently have H&R coil over kit installed on 2011 Acura Tsx I -4. Best combination ever. The car can corner now better than 03 evo 8 stock.

Amazing, Sticky even in the rain!

Just put a set of these on my 350z Roadster and the grip is amazing. It's been raining here for days and the conversion from the old tires has happened during the rains. This has been a great opportunity to compare the old tires to the new and the difference is night and day. I accelerated aggressively from stop into a 90 degree right hand turn and not a hint spin from the rears. In the past I would get a little sideways before the traction control would kick in. Not today! Just acceleration without spin. Stop is just as amazing. I whole heartedly recommend these tires to sports cars enthusiasts.

PS2 to SS

I had to replace my OEM Pilot PS2 and was choosing what to do next. people in the PCA website and tirerack would say that Michelins were great and since they were OEM, I figured to stay with them. Knowing that the PS2 only had a 20k shelf life on them, I opted for the Pilot SS with a 30k life. What I got was a extreme performance tire with a smooth ride and it soaked up the Massachusetts road imperfections much better than my PS2's.

Up Grade to Pilot Super Sport

Just up graded my tires to 18 inch Michelin Pilot Super Sport. The same tires on my Z06 Corvette . Very happy with this tire on all my cars . I drive hard . My Honda Accord EX-L Touring Sedan came with 17 inch Michelins . I wanted more meat on the street , went to 18x8 wheels with the Super Sport tires . Better grip in turns and braking . Off to Road Atlanta to break in the new tires . Thanks Michelin ! Another great job .

Awesome Performance Tire GREAT PRICE

My Nissan GTR had the stock run flats. By Changing Tires to the Pilot SuperSports It completely change the driving dynamic of the car. No more wawawawawawa tire noise. The ride is smoother, They track straight without grabbing every line the road. Over bumps you don't loosen your organs. The may squeal slightly more but it does not bother me at all. I am a huge fan of PS2's and I give the SuperSports a 10 out of a 10. Michelin Makes the best tire in the world hands down. Thank You for keeping my car and family safe, Cheers, Ryan

Quietly the Best Handling Tire Ever

This tire is clearly the quietest best handling tire I have owned. In wet roads, hot roads, traffic cornering, and basically all levels of traffic conditions and weather they are great. My car is powerful and these tires handle the torque, acceleration and braking without the excessive noise I was accustomed to. Fantastic - another Michelin winner.

Michelin Pilot SuperSport on Lexus GS350

These tires have been smooth riding as most of the traveling is on California Freeways and about town. Never any issues with going out of balance or any other similar problems. Wear is excellent, and peace of mind riding on Michelins is a dominant factor in choosing tires for the Lexus.

Great Tires!!!

I'm very happy with my super sports. I have a 2007 Porsche GT3 that I drive on the street as well as the track and these tires do an exceptional job at both. They are much quieter that the RE-11's that I had on the car before the PSS's. The grip is more consistent on track days even if it's hot out. I've only had them on the car for a few months but I'm expecting them to last much longer than any other tire worth putting on the car so it's a win-win! Buy with confidence!

OUTSTANDING TIRE FOR TRACK USE

I JUST FINISHED A FULL TRACK DAY IN MY SATURN SKY RACE CAR EQUIPPED WITH PILOT SUPER SPORTS. THESE TIRES HELD UP BETTER THAN ANY OTHER STREET TIRE I'VE EVER USED FOR TRACK. THEY WERE VERY PREDICTABLE AND HAD EXCELLENT GRIP, EVEN WHEN HOT. WITH A PROPER TRACK ALIGNMENT, THEY WEAR EXTREMELY EVEN. STARTING THE DAY, TREADWEAR WAS 9/32. BY THE END OF THE DAY, THEY WERE WORN TO 7/32 ALL THE WAY ACROSS. BY THE THIRD SESSION, I WAS DRIFTING CORNERS DUE TO THE LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE THESE TIRES GAVE ME. EXCELLENT TIRE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. THANK YOU MICHELIN FOR ANOTHER GREAT TIRE.
