I just bought my second set of Michelin A/S 3 tires. I am a spirited driver, and these all season tires handle like high performance summer tires. The braking and handling are simply phenomenal. Handling is more important to me than treadwear or comfort, and I must admit that these tires are somewhat noisy. My first set did not last anywhere close to 45,000 miles, but I never really expected them to. If you need 3 season tires and don't want to sacrifice handling/braking, this is a great choice. If you will be doing a lot of driving in snow, you may want to consider other tires or buy a separate set for winter use.

My new car came with other than Michelin tires. I tried to get them to change them but they would not. After driving for a month on my 'other than Michelin tires", I returned the car for a change to Michelin tires which at 80 years old, I have always had. What a difference!! Now my new car rides and handles as it should. What a joy. The performance by comparison is a world of difference and all due to my Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3 tires front and back. Thank you and buy this kind, you owe it to yourself to drive in the luxury of Michelin.

Michelin has always been in the family and seeing how they came up with the Pilot Sport A/S 3's just made it better to stay with Michelin tires. I switched my RFT and I'm going on a couple of thousand miles now. So far the ride is 100 times better! I have a luxury car and I went from feeling like I was off roading to having a nice smooth ride. Curse those RFT! Luckily, my old RFT came with the car and I didn't spend twice I would of if I did get the RFT again. We do a lot of driving since family is far and coming home the ride is so smooth that when my family is asleep they don't even notice all the bumps and road noise. The new A/S 3s are a better ride, the handling is great, the road noise is not an issue anymore and I do save more gas than I did before. The look of the tires are great and the feel is what I was looking for. Overall, I would put the A/S 3s again once I'm up for new tires again unless they come up with A/S 4s which would be great. Thanks Michelin team! Keep up the good work! I love the new tires!

Finally got a set of these on my C6 to replace the worn out oem tires. I took actual decibel level readings with the old tires and with the new A/S 3's and found average noise level dropped 5-9 decibels on the same roadway and same speed. Definitely a smoother ride as well. Traction in heavy rain is incredible. I wish this new Pilot Sport A/S3 had been out last year .

I'VE ONLY DRIVEN THESE TIRES ABOUT 1,000 MILES IN THE 6 WEEKS I'VE HAD THEM, ON DRY, WET AND SNOW COVERED ROADS IN MY AUDI S5 CABROLET. THE RIDE IS QUIET AND THE PERFORMANCE IS VERY GOOD. TRACKING IS VERY GOOD ON TURNS AND THE TIRE IMPARTS A FEELING OF CONFIDENCE WHEN ACCELERATING AND BRAKING IN ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS.

Just bought two rear tires for my Lexus IS250. They are very quiet and have awesome grip. They hook up well in the rain as well. My front tires are another brand and now I can hear the noise coming from them compared to the Michelin. The Michelin's live up to their name as far as quiet and smooth ride. That is why they are number one in tires. I always buy Michelin when I can.

These tires are great and probably the best wet tradition I have ever had. Overall they are fairly good tires, they start out very quite and very grippy, maybe too grippy if that is real? I saw too grippy because it makes small cars a little squirmy because of the instant bite of traction. I was able to get around 40k miles on my last pair with aggressive driving and long commutes. Like I said though the wet traction is unmatched. The car originally came with Perrelli's and although they had good dry track were poor in rain and tire life was about the same or less. All in all highly recommend these tires, can't go wrong with Michelin's.

I have just purchased and installed these beauties on my C7 Corvette Z51. Awesome performance in light snow and icy conditions! I researched tires extensively looking for a cold climate tire for my new Corvette and wnet with the new Pilot Sport A/S 3's all around! This morning before getting the tires, it took 4 attempts to get up my 8% grade driveway on light snowy/icy conditions! Now the Corvette goes right up - no problems! I may just run them all 4 seasons - they are that good!

Put them on the daily driver (Ford Fusion) because I wanted a good value with a high level of overall traction. These tires are amazing! The wet traction is outstanding, I've never had any other tire match their level of traction in the wet. They also respond instantly and firmly to steering inputs with huge amounts of grip. A confidence inspiring tire, it feels like the car is on rails when turning. They're also extremely quiet, almost inaudible in my case. They've also got a tremendous amount of stopping power. Glad I went with them. A worthwhile investment if you love your car.

I'm driving a 2007 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V, which is a decently sporty sedan in the compact range. I've had dedicated summer tires before, and two different all-season tires, including the original Pilot Sport A/S. I can honestly say that this tire is the best All-Season I've ever had, and so far, it's handling just as well as ANY of the summer tires I've used. They're quiet, comfortable, and extremely grippy. I've driven them in the rain several times already, and I have had to work fairly hard to break traction with them. It's almost scary how much control I have in the rain! And on dry ground, it feels like I'm driving on a super-sticky summer tire. I haven't even heard a chirp out of them, even on turns that would make my previous Pilot Sports sound quite loud. The braking also seems to be quite a bit stronger than my previous set. These tires are also NOT directional, like the previous Pilot Sport A/S series. As such, it also does not feel like I'm driving on a rail, ESPECIALLY in the rain. I cannot yet comment on tread-life, but they do seem to have a slight increase in MPG. However, I'll need quite a few more data points before I can say that there's a statistically significant increase in MPG, so I will try to update this review in the future. I honestly can't think of any negative comments to make on this tire, as of yet. If anything comes up, then I'll update this review, but so far I am extremely satisfied!
