I was looking for tires that could handle the Mini's cornering ability in all types of weather. After extensive research, I chose Michelin's Pilot Sport A/S 3. These were exactly the set of tires I was looking for. The ride is supurb and the handeling in the corners is amazing. As an added benefit, I found the stopping distance with the new Michelin's greatly improved. The MINI is an agressive driving machine and the Pilot Sport A/S 3 are up to the challenge. I would highly recommend them.

The steering response and feeling of safety were immediate as I drove away from installlation. The ride is smooth and handling is positive and comfortable. They really compliment the driving ability of my Infiniti G37X. Very pleased and highly recommend this product!

I bought the Michelin Pilot A/S Sport 3 in March of 2015 for the rear of the S500 Sport Pkg with 212843 miles. The ride at first was very smooth and comfortable (that's the reason I have stayed with Michelin) but @ 219183 miles the rears are bald, rough riding & cupping - tire centers will not balance the tires saying they are to far gone. I am in Southern Ca. I am extremely disappointed with Michelin for this product, Michelin has been my tire of choice for decades but this speaks to quality- I hope to hear from Michelin - again excellent initial tire for this car but the mileage is horrible. I hope Michelin can correct this issue. Unhappy

Purchased set for daughter's Jetta Sportwagen 2.5 last month & was impressed. Just put a set on my Jetta TDI Sportwagen and am very impressed. Ride is much smoother than with OE tires, and it is quieter. Car now also corners much better--much better. Braking is superb! Will follow up after several thousand miles.

I had the A/S 3 tires installed on my wife's 2014 C7 Z51 Corvette when it was delivered in December of 2014. Living in Buffalo, NY I wanted to be able to use the car in late fall and early spring [cold weather, light snow]. We have made two trips to Florida and the tires have performed much better than I expected. They provide a soft, quiet ride. Traction and cornering is very good. Wear is much better than I expected to get on a Corvette. We currently have over 31,000 miles on them and still have over 4/32nd tread depth remaining. I will be replacing these with the new Pilot Sport A/S 3+ before our next trip to Florida.

Our family relies on Michelin tires for all 5 of our vehicles. Recently I replaced my Primacy tires with the Pilot Sport A/S 3 tires and wow! what a wonderful difference!! The ride is incredibly smooth and the road noise is minimal. Definite noticeable improvement in how the car handles (acceleration, tracking and braking). I'm sold on these tires and can't wait to try them out in rain/snow conditions. Never thought I would actually look forward driving out in the rain and snow but these tires certainly give me the confidence to know I will be able to drive safely to any destination and under any conditons.

I have a 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt SS/SC and I wanted to stay with the OE size, 215/45/18. I noticed these tires while doing my research online. The price was higher than what I wanted to pay but I wanted an all around tire that had good tread life, strong sidewall, and good wet traction. This tire seemed to top all test performed so I decided to purchase them. After only a few hundred miles on them I am very sure it will be worth the extra money spent. These tires are very smooth riding and balanced well. They respond very well to steering an braking. I can't wait for it to rain so I can try that out too. The installer told me that I bought the best all around tire on the market today for my car. I will follow up this review when I have more miles on them and when I get to use them in the rain.

"What ME Worry" Are you aware as you cruse thru traffic your car only has the size of a piece of typing paper of traction on the road? Where does this come from? If you answered ... your tires, your right. But you can be Dead right if you do not use the right tires for your car! I have used nothing but Michelin tires on my cars. Why? I love my family and want to do everything I can do to protect them. How do you feel about all who ride in your car? Do you know that overinflated, underinflated, and low tread depth will cause pre mature tire ware and tire failure? If you said NO, then you need to check out your local Michelin Dealer, they will not only put the right tire on you car, and with regular maintance, I have gotten 60,000 miles out of a set of my Michelins. My Michelin dealer keeps me from worrying about my tires! I hope you will try a set of Michelins, and be worry free like me! I have three different Michelins sets and I can recommend these to anyone! O-by the way my three daughters are on there own now; and are a 2nd generation of Michelin users.

Since 1983, I've exclusively purchased Michelin tires which, until now, never disappointed me. Although the Pilot Sport A/S 3 tires handle well, they've significantly reduced my Honda Civic's gas mileage by 10-12%. The drop in mileage began immediately after these tires were installed. I keep my vehicle in top mechanical shape and ensure that all maintenance schedules are followed, so there is no doubt that the drop in mileage is due to these new tires. My original tire choice was the Primacy MXM4 205/55R16 tires. Unfortunately, Michelin had no inventory available for many months. Just my luck, because the Primacy MXM4's are now available!

I have been a long time Michelin purchaser, but the company has out done themselves with the development of the A/S 3. The best thing I like about the Pilot Sport A/S 3 is the non-directional tread. The tires handle superbly and they provide a comfortable ride at the same time. The performance in the rain is second to none for a performance tire. Outstanding product.
