I would buy thus product again

I love these tires, I wouldn't buy anything else Micheline are the best tire out there by far. I have the Super Sport they always grip in the rain. I drive a sports car in Florida and trust ne we get alot of rain i wouldn't put any thing else on my car. They always perform and are very quiet when your car sits as low as mine. Love them.

Great Performance

Use it on my 08 BMW M3 as a daily driver to and from work, have not been to the track and keep traction control on so no drifting either. Tires have grip through everything and were great in rain. 7,400 miles later, I have chords showing as of yesterday. Great performance all the way up to the chords. Would definitely advice others to get these, great grip, really low noise. Other than tread life, I have no complaints about these tires.

Best street tires on my Audi

I am on my second set of these on my Audi Avant (255/35/19) and am very impressed. They are incredibly durable and when I do track days in the rain I leave these on and they have performed very well for a street tire. The only problem I ever encountered was at a two day track event where I expected rain and instead encountered 90-100+ temps. The edges of the tread blocks did incur some chunking but with more than 3 degrees negative camber and high temps, it was not unexpected. Overall wear was minor even with that abuse...and that is a 4000 lb wagon being pushed to keep up with so called "sports cars" By comparison, the OEM tires from an Italian manufacturer wore out very quickly and were prone to flat spotting if the car sat undriven for a week or more. Two other models from a German company were noisy and also lasted less than 12k miles each. I should disclose that I have been given 2 sets of The Italian company's tires and currently have a third set of their Dot-R compound tires mounted on my track wheels. Regardless, I prefer the Michelin Pilot Super Sport and think it is a phenomenal tire for longevity as well as grip all with minimal tire noise. I recommend them to all of my friends seeking high quality perfomance street tires that last and know that a set will soon be replacing the older Michelin PS2's currently on my Mercedes E55 AMG. Please make these in a size for my Cayenne Turbo (295/35/21)

THE BEST FOR MY LADY "G"

Wouldn't have any other tire, especially with a sports car like my Mercedes Benz. The brand itself is why I chose Michelin. The ZR rating that the SL500 needs is met by this brand. I believe in this brand, have owned Michelin tires before on other Mercedes I have owned.

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!

Excellent

Had this put on my 2010 Corvette Grand Sport and man what a difference! The original tires were the worst tires I have ever owned in that whenever they hit an imperfection, or a grove in the road, it would slam you to that side. With these tires the car feels like a completely different car, great ride and no pulling to one side or the other. I was going to sale my car but now I'm keeping it!

What a Diference!

I replaced the factory run-flats on my BMW 135i convertible with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. This tire kept coming up in all the BMW forums. Boy, were they right! Before, I called the car the Flintstone mobile because it rode like it was on rocks. The Super Sports made it a totally different car. Rides MUCH better. I also autoX and do track days, and the Super Sport has proven to be a very competitive modern grippy tire. I recommend it highly.

The best high performance tires ever

From the first few moments driving on these new tires, I felt as if I was riding high up, on air, compared to my previous tires. The tires grip the road well, especially in rainy, slippery conditions. The tires help the car, an M3, to easily handle corners even at high speeds. I love the way the tires look and feel - and - they seem to be wearing evenly and I am told they will last much longer than other tires I have had before.

Simply Super

I bought these tires to replace my Pilot PS2's, and so far they have been worth the money. They give my car a lot of grip around the corners. They also have been pretty good in rain. I can't comment on wear life because I haven't had them to long, but they don't seem to have lost much tread. Would recommend these to anyone who has a sports car that they want to get a little more performance out of.

best street tire PERIOD!

i have a 06 G35 with all of the bolt old parts. Keeping it NA. this tire is great for what i bought it for- high performance driving wet or dry. Very, very quiet, well balanced & smooth riding. I have these for when I have to have fun. The tread wear is good considering how well they stick in normal conditions wet and dry. I have a new found joy of driving after these. I would DEFIANTLY get a new set once these turn into slicks. Minor grip about the tire is after it heat cycles there is brown on the side walls.
