Excellent Tire for C6 Z06 Corvette

Great dry grip, excellent rain handling, GRADUAL breakaway cornering, braking is controlled, better cold weather grip. Before the Super Sports the rear would instantly break loose, not now I can even use some throttle. Honestly Michelin just makes a better all around high performance tire. I have 7 months of driving, 5000 city and 3000 highway for a total of 8000 miles on them. There's still over half the tread on the rears, that's good if your not familiar. I've owned the F1-GS, GS-D3; Supercar, G2; Pilot PS, PS2, and Super Sport. Supercar, G2, and Super sport on Z06 only. It would be surprising if you regretted buying these.

Going on 50 years of driving on Michelin

Replacing the tires on my BMW 330ci convertible was like getting a new car. They are quiet, have a solid grip always surprising me with holding power, and they provide a ride I didn't know the car had in it. I have been a loyal buyer of Michelin tires for over 49 years now!!!

Outstanding Performance

I now have 10k miles on these tires, which I cannot rotate due to different size front/rear, and they still have a lot of tread remaining. I am expecting 20-25k out of these tires. Granted, I don't drive my car that hard (Lexus IS350C). These tires are like glue for your car. They can take interstate off ramps at speeds that make me feel uneasy with no slipping or squealing. They stay plastered to the road in heavy thrunderstorms and I have yet to hydroplane. The other reviews are true...If you are looking for a performance tire, this is it. I will definitely replace these with another set when the time comes.

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.

Wow, performance/comfort = Happy Turbo

Recently bought a set of Pilot Super Sports for my 07 Porsche 911 Turbo. Great handling, quiet ride, low noise and wearing vey well. Exceeded my expectations in all ways. Now I understand what all the buzz is about. If you own a high performance car, these tires will transform your car. It was a great choice, very happy!

The All New Mitchelin Performance Tires

With all the new vehicles being made in the next 10 years Mitchelin tires should be on all of them as a stock tire to make total performance for the best in all the newer vehicles. I love Michelin tires & always have. I use Michelin all season radial tires on my old pick up truck, they do not make noise as I drive down the road, I should use them on my 98 Corvette Coupe, unfortunately, right now being retired from the mechanical work force/repair shops that I once owned, I bought my 98 Corvette with another brand name of performance tires, not as great as Michelin, but good, too! Keep up the great work Michelin maybe one day I will be back in the mechanical repair shop promoting Michelin Tires once again to my customers for all their sports cars?

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.

excellent tires

Purchased Pilot Super sports about 500 miles ago for my Cayman. Replaced PS2s. Handling and braking is excellent, ride seems a little smother. But than again my old tires were 6 years old and rubber probably hardened up by now. Very happy with my selection.

Good wear, wet and dry performance GREAT feedback.

Have had these on an ALFA Romeo 4C with some mods. The stock P tires didn't last that long and on track got "greasy" after 3 laps. Worse was they emphasized tramming. The PSS have been on the car for 2 years now....much better wear, tramming dramatically less, Feedback is very good on these...perhaps even better than latest P4S although on paper the P4S is very slightly better in wet pretty even in dry. I might have tried P4S but at the they didn't have them in 215 size. The PSS also are better than my old stock tires on track in just about every way. 245/215 combo (+1 sizeing) on a 4C and maintain the same aspect ratio as stock makes for a greatly improved ride for street and occasional track day. There are tires more suitable for track only but those generally are poor as a daily driver/occasional track day tire.

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!
