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.

Great tires

I love these tire on my SRT 8. I had slipping problems on my SuperCharged Challenger (630hp/590lb) at the track and certain "stoplight" duals. Now my traction is awesome. Import crowd with all of their stickers and coffee can mufflers are in for more terror on the street now. I never lost before, but now its two of more car lenghts instead of just one.

The only performance tire I'll ever buy

I bought the Pilot Super Sports as the 3rd set of tires for my heavily modified BMW 335i. These tires took my car to a whole different level of performance. Their grip on the dry land and especially on the wet roads are remarkable. My wife was a little skeptical about the additional price, but as soon as I took her out in my car and showed her how dependable and SAFE they are, she literally said to me, "I don't ever want you to buy another tire". The grip and performance are truly top notch and why every supercar and hypercar maker puts Michelins on their cars. These are the pinnacles, the best, second to none. And for them to be priced so that everyday guys like me can buy them, that's just remarkable. THANK YOU MICHELIN!!!!

Very dissapointed

Bought a full set around 9 months ago. I have 15 mile roundtrip commute 4 days a week and have only been out of town twice (less then 600 miles total). My rear tires have lost ALL there tread down to the wire. My mechanic looked over my vehicle for any mechanical issues that could have caused this and there are none. The tires look like a teenager has been peeling out/ burning rubber with them. I had them replaced with a completely different brand of tires. I am very disappointed, especially since my Michelin tires that I had before lasted me 3 years!

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 product for the value

I've had the Michelin PSS on my M3 for approx 8,000 miles. They're a great, solid tire. The cornering and braking capabilities are awesome. Great wear too. Road noise is also very low compared to other tires I've had in the past. I've done one track day with the PSS and they held up really well. Overall very satisfied with the performance and dry traction.

Terrible Tred Wear

I normally put about 7,000 miles a year on this car. Mostly driven on short trips. Last year drove across country, about 7300 miles. The car handles well, but the wear factor is awful. After less than12,000 I am almost down to the wear bar. Needless to say I am looking for another brand of tire that will give longer tred wear.

Finally a quality tire

First of all in my everyday commute these tires are more than up to the task as they are much quieter than the OEM tires on my Subaru WRX Sti. They track beautifully and there is absolutely no wandering on the road with these babies. Just standing still they have a presence of awesomeness with the checkered flag so neatly placed on the sidewall. Yes these truly deserve the word "Super" in front of them and so many products dont these days. Thank you Michelin for your hard work and focus to deliver a tire that is truly jawdropping in performance. I will 100% with out a doubt purchase these again!

Amazing

I had these PS2s on a BMW 525Ti, M package...I can't think of a better combination of performance and comfort. The Super Sports I have on my STI are fantastic: dry grip so high it's scary. But I do a lot of highway cruising. For me, the road noise and relatively hard ride of the Super Sports on long drives (500+ kms) is tiresome...I'll keep the Super Sports for track days, no way I'm giving them up. But for everyday driving, I've bought new wheels and I'm going to install a set of PS2s on them. I'm a loyal Michelin client, starting with XZX back in the day with my '67 Triumph Spitfire...nothing but Michelin for me.

Best Street Performance Tire

Went from the PS2 to this tire. Was skeptical on the switch initially, and wanted to get the PS2s again. Bought them and will never look back. The Super Sports seem softer than the PS2s, so the Super Sports grip excellent when hot. 2000 Audi S4, 600 hp.
