Best road tire in existence

I bought these a couple weeks ago, and they're everything people cracked them up to be! They are the perfect tire for anybody looking for that half step down from full slicks, while still maintaining that quiet and fuel efficient expectation we all have for a daily driver. I've had passengers in the car that notice the difference too, but around corners you can really feel that sidewall being reinforced and designed for those high speed maneuvers. The stock tires on my Golf R were grippy but the you could feel the sidewall start to let go at high G's and that made you lose confidence. These are the most amazing tire for the summers!

Great Tires for a Sports Car

I have Pilot Super Sports installed on my 2020 Toyota Supra Prem 3.0. 255/35/R19 on the front and 275/35/R19 on the rear. I have had the car on curvy roads and at speed. They are solid, feel solid, and hold the road extremely well. They provide a feeling of confidence when the performance point is at a level is where it counts. While I can't speak for him (other than that he also thinks that the tires are very good), my neighbor has Pilot Super Sports installed on his Porsche GT4, as well. We're a neighborhood commercial. ;-) [When I spec my car on the Michelin site for this tire, however, it says that it does not have a recommendation for my year/make/model/trim. Since they come installed from the factory - can't get a higher recommendation that that - you might want to address this.]

Wow!

I bought these tires to replace the OEM "performance" tires my Audi S4 was equipped originally. Much, much better than OEM Summer tires. Handles better, grips better in dry or wet weather. Much more precise turn in. I have no complaints at all. I just wonder how long they will last.

Brought the life back out of my car!

Michelin Pilot Super Sport All I can say is wow, these tires have definitely brought the life back out of my car, 06 Subaru STI 476whp. I had not realized that my previous tires made my car feel numb and like a boat. Steering input, and the feel of the road was non-existent. I have now put 3000 miles on these set of Pilots and I enjoy driving it every time I get in. The crispness of steering is back, acceleration and grip is amazing, no more squealing in the high speed turns. They seem to warm up quickly and do not fade easily. I have had a few chances of driving in the rain and wet traction is unbelievable for a performance tire. Predictability in the tires traction is very consistent and uniform, and I do push these tires hard. I have Michelins on two of my other cars, and I don't think I will go with any other manufacturer. The quality and performance I get out of Michelins are definitely worth it. The only thing that could make these tires even better are an even stiffer sidewall than it already has. Don't get me wrong, they are stiff, but personally I like the stiffer.

Best Tires Ever Ford Mustang Saleen

I replaced a set of P-Zeros on my 2007 Saleen Mustang after reading all of the great reviews about the PSS online. I am running 295/35/20 rears and 275/35/20 fronts. So far I only have a few hundred miles on them. The ride and noise are noticeably different with the PSS (better and quieter). My Saleen makes about 600 rwhp and these tires hook up well. They are not for drag racing. HOWEVER, I competed at an autocross event this summer and beat all 150 cars entered, including some with full race slicks. I cut about 5 seconds off my lap time (about a 1 minute autocross course) which is remarkable. Turning and braking is where these tires excel. These are the absolute best tires I've ever run, and I will continue to buy them as long as Michelin manufactures them. If you are on the fence about purchasing them....BUY, BUY, BUY! You won't be disappointed.

Great Tire

Plus: quiet, compliant ride, excellent handling and braking in both dry and wet conditions. Minimal wear with 8000 miles on tire set. Negitive: muted thumping sound at speeds above 45mph. Suspect it is not due to the tire as I had this on my previous set of tires. (balancing and alignment were within normal limits) so I suspect it is the suspension geometry.

Simply Great Tires!

In a few words these are the best hi performance tires I've owned. Very sticky, with great feedback and good bump absorption. Good handling also on wet. Noise is minimal.Thread wear is good also. The only drawback I see so far is higher fuel consumption and the fact that they are very slippery out of the box, so be careful during break in period. If you are looking for performance summer tires don't hesitate. You can't go wrong with Michelin Supersports!

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.

Great Performing Tire

I now have 14,000 on these MPSS on 2018 X5 M. Going to “measure tomorrow, but my visual says I have a good 6-maybe 8k left. Car was four wheel aligned, pressure tested/ adjusted cold every week, rotated side to side ( staggered) every 7500. Only issue is tires get a bit hard riding & noisy at ½ life of tread. But handle...sshheeiizzziiitt!

Great Tire

Used on the street and at the track. Great longevity and very good handling on the track but still good on the street and in the wet on the track. The only way to get a better handling track tire when it is dry is to go to a track/dry only tire and they do not last near as long. You sacrifice a little dry track handling for excellaent longevity and wet performance.
