Super Sports on my Super Sport

Just replaced the stock Goodyear Eagle F1's on my SS Camaro after just 20k miles. So far the Michelin SS's are great no complaints period. Thanks Michelin.

Solid Street and track tire

Have had tires for over 10,000 miles, the tread is still outstanding even with aggressive daily driving. Outstanding perfomance in wet and dry conditions. They handle much better in heavy downpores than the all-season tires I previously used. Highly recommended for any sporty driver.

Amazing Performance and Daily Driver

The Pilot Super Sport tires are an amazing product. Michelin had a high bar set with their PS2 line and these somehow managed to exceed my expectations. They have refined road manners with their low noise and comfortable ride. The PSS makes easy going of any commute or road trip and it really makes no sense how they last so long but perform so amazingly (I am on my second set). The real test of these tires is at the track where they surprise everyone with the amount of grip for a non-racing slick tire. Having run many a HPDE I can say that any driver would not be left wanting when choosing the PSS as a tire they can drive to the track, drive on the track with confidence, and then drive home on. These tires are so good at so many things and are even reasonably priced. I don't know what voo-doo Michelin is caught up in over in their R&D department but I say hats and helmets off to you my friends...Bravo.

Best tire on the market

The Michelin Pilot Super Sports were purchased to replace my factory PS2s on my IS F. I upsized the tires, and they have such great grip. Taking corners at higher speeds is no trouble. I had a chance to test these out in wet conditions as well. Braking was superb and provided excellent stopping power, much more than the PS2s. For the price, these are as great as a car owner can get. Above and beyond performance, great handling, and can stop on a dime unlike any of the other tires I've tested. My only concern will be tread life. This isn't my track car, but on a daily basis, it should see considerable wear and tear. Only the best for my F, though, and Michelin PSS is the way to go!

Best tires, I would buy this tires again

These 235/40ZR-18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport XL tires are on my 2007 Audi A4 3.2 Sports Line and they are GREAT!!! These tires have better traction, rides smoother and quieter than before. Most of all, they made the car feel much better, leading to greater confidence when cornering and braking and thus, overall safety. I would certainly recommend these tires to my family members and friends. One should never compromise on brakes and tires and this is a good example of me buying these excellent tires for summer driving. I am extremely pleased with the overall performance of these tires.

Outstanding handling and performance

I run the Super Sport on a 2018 BMW M6, and I wouldn't consider any other tire for that vehicle. I've tried Firestone, Continental and Hancook, and none of them handled nearly as well as the Michelin. The rubber is soft so you don't get great mileage out of them, but if you're buying a tires for that reason get a Honda. The BMW is all about performance, and this the tire that will handle the best.

Excellent tires

I have a set of Pilot Super Sport in my BMW M3. I am an spirited driver and often drive my car on the race track for HPDE events with several auto clubs. These are the best Michelin that I have ever had. The dry traction is excellent , not to mention the wet traction, it feels like you are driving on dry pavement. They have a very quiet ride for being and extreme performance tire. The gas mileage is great. All in all they are excellent on the street as well as on the track.

super sport on bmw

Ive waited a month before I decided to give this review so it could be accurate as possible. Long eniough to to get a good feel for the new tire and not too long so I dont remember the feel of the old tires I use to have. I have 20 in. racing rims on my 5 series BMW and the larger rims decreased the ride quality. After extensive research I chose the Super Sports. Ride quality is a little better but not much of a difference. Tractions about the same. The major difference is the grip you feel in a turn. The 3000s I would feel a slight roll and the SUPER SPORTS handle the perfect. Also, road noise was reduced with the SUPER SPORTS.
