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.

Perfect Performance Dailt Driver Tire

Have the Super Sports now on two cars, 02 M5 and M Coupe. Recently completed a 5k round trip in the coupe to Laguna Seca and back to Texas. Super Sports are excellent highway tire and perform extremely well on the track. Very responsive and progressive and predictable. Heat stable. So far noise is minimal. If the mileage lives up to the rating i will have found the perfect tires.

Great tire- but...

I have a 2017 Cadillac ATS-V with 12,750 miles on it. The tires have awesome grip but the ride is harsh. The tires have to be changed (told by my Cadillac dealer) from everyday driving- not 1 burnout (I know). Is this it for the life of the tire? I thought it would last a little longer- also what’s up with the cracking in the tires?? I live in Los Angeles and it gets hot but should I buy another brand?

Making the best better

I drive a 997 Carrera with the OEM tire being Michelin Pilot Sport PS2. I switched to the Michelin Pilot Super Sport and wow, the best got better. The Super Sport has the same handling, if not better, with a longer tread life. I participate in autocross and driver's education events with my local Porsche Club and do not feel the need to go back to the PS2.

The only performance tire I'll ever buy

I bought the Pilot Super Sports as the 3rd set of tires for my heavily modified BMW 335i. These tires took my car to a whole different level of performance. Their grip on the dry land and especially on the wet roads are remarkable. My wife was a little skeptical about the additional price, but as soon as I took her out in my car and showed her how dependable and SAFE they are, she literally said to me, "I don't ever want you to buy another tire". The grip and performance are truly top notch and why every supercar and hypercar maker puts Michelins on their cars. These are the pinnacles, the best, second to none. And for them to be priced so that everyday guys like me can buy them, that's just remarkable. THANK YOU MICHELIN!!!!

WOO HOO

Installed the Pilot Super Sports about 6 weeks ago on my 2012 Mercedes C Class on 18" AMG rims and WOW!! Unfortunately last week my Porsche 997 had a nail in the sidewall of it's RE050's and although not quite ready for a new set of tires it was just the excuse I needed....so on went the Pilot Super Sports. Although not Porsche N Spec, the P Dealaer recommended and installed them. Noticeable break-in period of a few hundred miles on both cars until the tire 'settles' then you really will start to grin, so if you think they are good as you first drive off after installation just wait. Outstanding wet weather traction, really impressive stability, and also exceptional braking performance wet and dry. You WILL transform your ride, even the fussiest of you out there. I offer no hesitation in recommending these (and in fact am telling people I know to buy them). No sense of wear yet, plus both cars are staggered wheel setups so I cannot rotate. Well done Michelin.

Beware

I have a 2017 bmwx6m that I purchased brand new in September of 2017. Last summer I had only 5,000 miles on the car & my front tires were wearing horrible. Went to BMW & had to fight to get them replaced for free after being told that I drive “ hard”. I have a 1.7 mile commute on local suburban streets. Now one of my rear tires. A 325 30 ZR 21 has failed miserably. I have about 16,000 miles on the car. Would never recommend these tires to anyone

Excellent product for the value

I've had the Michelin PSS on my M3 for approx 8,000 miles. They're a great, solid tire. The cornering and braking capabilities are awesome. Great wear too. Road noise is also very low compared to other tires I've had in the past. I've done one track day with the PSS and they held up really well. Overall very satisfied with the performance and dry traction.

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!!!

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!
