Surprising Failures

I've been a solid Michelin tire fan for almost 9 years. They are the only brand I've really come to trust. But now, I'm starting to lose that trust. I've been running Pilot Super Sports since early 2012, buying both Super Sports for summer & had a set of their All Seasons for winter, going to the Pilot® Sport A/S 3+ in 2016. ALL of their tires performed flawlessly, with great handling, a nice "feel", & long life. Then, even though I had a fairly new set of PSS's, the PS4's came out, so I got a set & had them mounted up & put them on. But now, with under 15,000 miles of use, and 6 to 7 32'nds of tread still there, there are problems. My shop guy who rotates my tires every 3/4 months is telling me that the bands inside 3 of the 4 tires are separating. He's shown me the tires & the uneven surface is easy to see. I haven't felt anything odd or heard any strange sounds though. I'm absolutely baffled by this as I've never any issues with a Michelin tire before. I don't know if it's just a bad set, or a deeper issue. Having read another review here mentioning the same kind of issue, it could be either one, or both. I love Michelin, but am not sure what to make of this.

Terrible Tires

I had these tires installed on my 2016 Dodge Challenger Hellcat. The road noise was ridiculous loud and the ride quality was terrible. I could not get any traction between 0 and 80 mph. At 80 mph on the interstate if I floor the gas the car slides all over the interstate. I tried different amounts of air pressures between 35 psi and 50 psi and nothing worked. I used these tires for 2 weeks on days between 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit and could never get any proper traction. I do not recommend these tires for any Hellcat drivers. I did not use these tires under any race conditions. Only driving around town and on the interstate.

WOW

Bought these tires yesterday. Replaced the Hankook tires that had 27,000 miles on them. They are ok tires but the PS4S are amazing. Super quiet, firm on the ground and totally changed the dynamics of my Audi TTS. Now I know I have only had them for 1 day, but had to express my enjoyment!

225/19 from France 255/19 from USA

Service Adviser had to explore several distributors before he could find staggered set for my M3. We both got a chuckle when we discovered the front tires were from France and the Rear Tires were from the USA. Happy with the sidewall aesthetics. First ten miles have been fine @ 55F Of course wouldn't you know that I change my summer tires and now we have snow on the way to South. Winters late hurrah 2017

Amazing wet and dry performance

I just got my first set of Michelin tires and they were these Michelin pilot sport 4 s tires. I've gotta say I was on the fence because of the price but as soon as you experience the capabilities of this tire and regret is instantly gone, it's been pouring rain the last week every day and not once has my confidence dropped while driving on these tires and in dry weather the level of performance is absolutely incredible

Benchmark summer tire

Having owned 3 types of Michelin tires on my Audi S6 I can confidently say this tire is the benchmark for Preformance vehicles. My introduction to Michelin started with the AS3+ which was a great tire for dry, wet and occasional snow. After wearing through these tires which are now discontinued I decided to opt for the revised AS4. Unfortunately I found these tires to be quite a downgrade compared to the AS3+ for enthusiastic driving in dry conditions especially in corners. Living in California, I decided to run a summer tire year round and replaced the AS4 for a set of PS4S. These tires are fantastic. The grip these tires provide in cornering and acceleration is very impressive. The tires feels planted and confident at autobahn speeds and are responsive enough in corners to get on throttle far sooner than any other tire I have had on this car. Well done Michelin, I will be purchasing these again.

Increadable wet road handling

Though it appears to have a miniscule roll drag increase over N type tires, on dry roads they virtually handle equally, but on wet highway use make a large differance. Not what I would buy for use on a dry track, but for commercial road use, they are amazing

Best Tires Ever!

I cannot describe enough how these tires make my 2019 Dodge Charger 392 Scat Pack drive. They belong on this car from the factory, but I am happy to see and feel the difference now! These tires run perfectly over the imperfections in the road, handle very crisply on turns and acceleration, but the most important to me is the steering response. The wheel input is immediately translated into the tire to the road and that to me is the best feature. These tire could only last 10k miles and I would buy them again and again. Thank you Michelin for the best tire for my car ever.

Awesome!

Just replaced the the P Zeros that came with my 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera with these tires. What a difference! Much better ride and they’re much quieter on all road surfaces. I do not track my car, so I can’t compare the two on the track. But I’m told that they handle as well if not better than the P Zeros.

High quality

The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires are exceptional and offer impressive grip and handling, providing a great sense of control on the road. The tires excel in both dry and wet conditions, making them versatile for various weather conditions. Additionally, they tend to be relatively quiet and provide a comfortable ride. However, they can be on the expensive side compared to some competitors, but the performance and safety they offer make them a worthwhile investment for those who prioritize high-quality tires.
