Fast wearing

Purchased these Pilot Super Sport tires for the rear as I only got 10,000 miles from the originals. The handling and smoothness was great. I am a smart/safe driver and regiously check the air pressure but only got 7,000 miles off these tires, especially the right rear, which is the torc side. The left rear still has at least half the tread left but I will have to change them both. I was told that's the nature of the beast. I will think of sacrificing smoothness for a little more wear life and look for something else.

Best tires, I would buy this tires again

These 235/40ZR-18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport XL tires are on my 2007 Audi A4 3.2 Sports Line and they are GREAT!!! These tires have better traction, rides smoother and quieter than before. Most of all, they made the car feel much better, leading to greater confidence when cornering and braking and thus, overall safety. I would certainly recommend these tires to my family members and friends. One should never compromise on brakes and tires and this is a good example of me buying these excellent tires for summer driving. I am extremely pleased with the overall performance of these tires.

Awesome Tires

Bought these Super Sport tires for my 2008 Cadillac CTS to replace the original Pilot tires. Absolute love these tires!! They stick to the road like glue, I baven't been able to get them to break loose yet and I have been trying. I don't see myself buying another brand or type of tire for any of my sports cars ever again.

Great grip on this tire!

I wore my previous tire down to the cord on the inside edge of both tires. Bad camber maybe? They were 265/40/18 and I moved to the Michelin Super Sport 265/35/18 and the ride and grip is amazing. It is totally stable and it grabs hard when I accelerate through a tight corner. It just won't slide on me anymore. My 11 year old Porsche feels like it did the day I bought it! Kudos Michelin!

My love these tires.

I know tires. I have used many sets of different brands of high performance tires through out the years, and I have to say, I am impressed. My 2008 BMW M3 has gone though 2 sets of PS2 and now on its third set of tires. I have heard great things about these Super Sports from other forum members. Since Ferrari have been using them on their most current models, I should give these tires a try on the BMW. The tires offers awesome traction, ride quality and durability. If you are looking to do performance upgrades for your car, just upgrading your current tires to the Super Sports will improve acceleration, handling and braking. I track the M3 as well and these are the best street tires without going to R-compounds.

Huge Improvement in Ride and Handling

These tires replaced the original equipment summer tires on my 2004 S2000. The ride is much quieter, the grip is incredible in corners and the car feels smoother over road imperfections. The Michelins even grip better in the rain. I am very happy with the Michelins and recommend them highly.

Michelin Pilot Super Sport dissapointing

Used it on my 2015 Volvo S60 AWD. Tires are worn out to 3/32 tread after only 19k miles of mostly highway driving with almost no luggage and only me driving. If these tires are rated for 6 yrs and 45k miles, why this excessive tread wear? Tires were rotated every 5k miles and 4-wheel alignment also done every 6 months. The snow ride is very poor and car slipped in parking lot and incurred bumper damage. Only plus for these tires is the handling on curves on dry roads. Overall disappointing tires.

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!!

New Michelin Pilot Super Sport 4S

I drive a small sports coupe as a daily most of the year and experience nearly all types of driving conditions. So far the tires have lived up their reputation. The performance is second to none - very nice grip, predictable, crisp response to steering inputs and good wet grip. They are a bit noisier than the OEM's I took off, but that's not really a fair comparison at this point. (I didn't buy them because they were quiet either!) For some reason I get a bit more steering wheel vibration at speed - the tire dealer has balanced the fronts twice now. Caveat: I only have put about 250 miles on these bad boys.
