Pilot Super Sport - Grip - Guts - Glory

One of the best tires I have ever owned. The Super Sport summer tires gives me confidence on all road conditions. This tire has grip in wet or dry weather. The offer me full control when approaching sharp curves and rounding corners. My MB C300 Spot 4 Matic already handled well the Super Sport makes it even better. My tire installer told me when I got these tires that thy had "hops" in the front pair and I am not sure what that means. What is a "hop"? I just hope that these "hopped" tires don't translate into premature wear. The only thing I don't like about these tires is that I will have to take them off in the winter.

It is the thing

I have a 1000 mile on the pilot super sport installed on my infiniti G35 Coupe and it is a fun experience. The grip is phenomenal and the handeling is superb. I just want to verify if they will last 2x as there compatertor, if this the case...then i found my tire brand.

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!!!!

Outstanding performance

I drive a high performance sports car and I depend on the excellent handling that Michelin tires provide. I recently decided to try a different brand tire. What a huge mistake. The other brand tire caused the rear end of my car to drift dangerously around corners. It was even unstable while going straight on the freeway. Luckily I bought them from a store that took them back and replaced them with Michelin tires. I will never change again. I never thought that there was such a huge difference in tires. I'm a true believer now! My car will always have Michelin Super Sport tires from now on!

Performance Tires for my Audi A4

I got these tires by mistake - Audi dealership, despite my request to get all season tires gave me these and tried to persuade me that these are just as safe in cold weather as all season tires. I did not think that is the case. I have to say during summer, they are great. The only things that bother me are when I am in my building's parking garage on concrete after it's rained, the tires make this annoying noise. Other than that, all good.

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.

GREAT TIRE!! FAR SUPERIOR THAN THE PSs

Just put the Super Sports on my 2005 Porsche Boxster and I am absolutely beyond impressed! These new tires already handle better, ride better, look better, and sound better than my original Pilot Sports ever did. The only downfall was I had to wait 2 months on back order until they finally arrived. However, it was most certainly worth the wait.

Great tire- but...

I have a 2017 Cadillac ATS-V with 12,750 miles on it. The tires have awesome grip but the ride is harsh. The tires have to be changed (told by my Cadillac dealer) from everyday driving- not 1 burnout (I know). Is this it for the life of the tire? I thought it would last a little longer- also what’s up with the cracking in the tires?? I live in Los Angeles and it gets hot but should I buy another brand?

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!

Simply Great Tires!

In a few words these are the best hi performance tires I've owned. Very sticky, with great feedback and good bump absorption. Good handling also on wet. Noise is minimal.Thread wear is good also. The only drawback I see so far is higher fuel consumption and the fact that they are very slippery out of the box, so be careful during break in period. If you are looking for performance summer tires don't hesitate. You can't go wrong with Michelin Supersports!
