Best Street Performance Tire

Went from the PS2 to this tire. Was skeptical on the switch initially, and wanted to get the PS2s again. Bought them and will never look back. The Super Sports seem softer than the PS2s, so the Super Sports grip excellent when hot. 2000 Audi S4, 600 hp.

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.

Great tires

I love these tire on my SRT 8. I had slipping problems on my SuperCharged Challenger (630hp/590lb) at the track and certain "stoplight" duals. Now my traction is awesome. Import crowd with all of their stickers and coffee can mufflers are in for more terror on the street now. I never lost before, but now its two of more car lenghts instead of just one.

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.

A lot of tire for the money.

I own a BMW 330ci. The Michelin Super Sport seem to be a perfect fit for my car. They are quiet and provide a comfortable ride with a sidewall that compliments the sport suspension with better compliance over sharp bumps compared to other tires I have used. The handling is just exceptional and I am most impressed because the grip is so sticky and, yet, wear is negligible after several thousand miles. And the price was right. My aim is to provide honest feedback and, to be honest, I cannot find a thing wrong with my Pilot Super Sports. I am completely satisfied with their performance and would buy them again.

Huge Improvement in Ride and Handling

These tires replaced the original equipment summer tires on my 2004 S2000. The ride is much quieter, the grip is incredible in corners and the car feels smoother over road imperfections. The Michelins even grip better in the rain. I am very happy with the Michelins and recommend them highly.

VERY STICKY TIRES!

I want to start by saying that I "only" buy Michelin Tires. I have had most of the performance tires since the 1970's and have always been impressed with the quality. This is my 3rd set of "Pilot" series tires and have to say this is my favorite tire ever! Quiet, good in the rain and handles in the dry like (rubber) glue on the road. I hope I don't get over confident with regards to how my car now grips in the corners. I have always been a safe but fast driver and feel confident these tires will forgive my occasional mistake.

Outstanding performance

I drive a high performance sports car and I depend on the excellent handling that Michelin tires provide. I recently decided to try a different brand tire. What a huge mistake. The other brand tire caused the rear end of my car to drift dangerously around corners. It was even unstable while going straight on the freeway. Luckily I bought them from a store that took them back and replaced them with Michelin tires. I will never change again. I never thought that there was such a huge difference in tires. I'm a true believer now! My car will always have Michelin Super Sport tires from now on!

Review Michelin pilot super sports

Have put just under 1000 miles on this set of four Michelin Pilot Super sports tires under spirited driving conditions in my AMG Mercedes. Quiet, comfortable ride quality. No problems in the rain. Went up to 140 mph without difficulty. I hope that I get good life out of this set. If I can get 20K or better miles, I will be ecstatic.

New Shoes on Acura RL

I put a set of Super Sports on my 05 Acura RL. I opted for the SS over A/S, because I wanted to see how the best tires worked on the car. These tires are going to spoil me and I'm afraid of getting any other tire, because it doesn't get any better than these. They are quite, handling is fantastic, and comfortable. You feel very reassured when you drive on these. I would recommend these tires to anyone. They are a little expensive, but well worth it. I am very satisfied.
