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.

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.

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.

Best tires for spirited drivers

I currently own a set of 225/45/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sports and the amount of grip that these tires offer do not compare to any other tires out in the market. Dry grip is phenomenal along with the wet traction. I currently have 6000 miles on these tires and have absolutely no issues. Would recommend to anyone in a sports car and have a heavy foot.

Transforms good into wow

Got a new 2011 Audi A4 loaded. The car handled ok until the sidewall blew out on 1 tire at 6k miles. Researched 245/40 R 18 fitments and saw the rave reviews about the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tireline. Bought the tires and they transformed the ride, which was already good. As the ratings show some comfort is lost but handling particularly into corners is top notch. The first thing you notice after driving a few miles is that the tires are warm and become very sticky and picked up grit off my driveway. I was already feeling like an F1 driver! If I wanted to wander up and down the freeway all day then the 30k warrantly might scare you off but as I do 10k miles a year I wanted to get everything out of the car as these tires allow me to do that.

Superb tires

I purchased the tires in June for my BMW 650i convertible and have driven cross country - some 6000 miles - in the last two months and have beem amazed at the ride comfort, lack of road noise compared to the factory run flats and the handling and grip of these tires. I tend to drive aggressively and the tires have responded well in every situation. Highly remommend these tires.

My Mini JCW Coupe is HAPPY NOW!!!

These tires WOKE UP my Mini! The handling is incredible and road noise had dropped over the factory runflats to half or more! Handling is off the charts, compared again to the factory runflats. I now can't wait to drive my car every day! I love these tires!

Awesome Performance Tire GREAT PRICE

My Nissan GTR had the stock run flats. By Changing Tires to the Pilot SuperSports It completely change the driving dynamic of the car. No more wawawawawawa tire noise. The ride is smoother, They track straight without grabbing every line the road. Over bumps you don't loosen your organs. The may squeal slightly more but it does not bother me at all. I am a huge fan of PS2's and I give the SuperSports a 10 out of a 10. Michelin Makes the best tire in the world hands down. Thank You for keeping my car and family safe, Cheers, Ryan

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.

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.
