EXCELLENT!

These Pilot 4S tires are nothing short of incredible! The tires that came on my WRX were Dunlop's, and I didn't realize how bad they were until I got these Michelin's. It took some miles to get used to them, but now I wouldn't buy any other tire. Keep in mind that these are summer tires. And they mean that. Once they heat up, the car is on a rail! Another note.... DO NOT drive with these tires below about 30 degrees. Not only will it ruin the tires, they are a totally different monster in the cold. With all that said, YOU WILL LOVE THESE TIRES!

Completely Changed the Driving Dynamic of my Benz

I’m always amazed at how tires can completely change the driving dynamic of a car. When I purchased my Mercedes-Benz a year ago it came with the original OEM run-flat tires which were absolutely horrible. They gave such a harsh and noisy ride which one wouldn’t expect from a luxury car. However after replacing all 4 tires with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S it now drives incredibly smooth and quiet. I feel like I have a brand new vehicle. This is how I wanted it to drive from the beginning. The handling is more predictable and solid. I even feel secure and sure-footed when driving in the rain. The thought of trading it in for a newer model crossed my mind a few times prior to getting the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S but now I’ve decided to hold on to it because it drives so well!

Helps Make Porsche a Porsche!

Put Pilot Sport 4S on my 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S. It's a proven tire on that car. Performs great. Lots of grip in the dry, and pretty good in the wet, too. Obviously a summer tire and not made for winter or cold conditions. Very happy with the tires!

Simply the High Mark of Excellence In Summer Tires!

Recently Installed a new set of Pilot Sport 4 S Tires on our 2017 Dodge Charger SRT Daytona and they have made the car come alive in so many ways, to extremely good Dry and Wet traction to ultra quick breaking and performance handling! These Tires are very quite and are the worlds ultimate out on the interstate highways as we traveled from Minneapolis Minnesota to Wyoming in the ultimate ride with these tires!

Outstanding Dry Grip, Outstanding wet grip! Limited tread life but that's expected with UHP Tires and High horsepower vehicles.

I purchased these for my BMW with the understanding that they are a Maximum Performance Summer tire and thus have a shorter tread life. These tires are remarkable!! Outstanding dry grip, surprisingly high grip in rain/wet conditions. This particular car doesn't get driven in the snow as THEY AER NOT SNOW TIRES!

HORRIBLE Tires for the Track!

I take my '15 911 Turbo to the track 4-5 times a year. I drive in the "advanced group" at these events. The 4Ss I purchase failed in 3 track events. The outside edges of the tires delaminated to the cord! Michelin would not honor their warranty, even though these tires are advertised for occasional use at the track.

Awesome!

Just replaced the the P Zeros that came with my 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera with these tires. What a difference! Much better ride and they’re much quieter on all road surfaces. I do not track my car, so I can’t compare the two on the track. But I’m told that they handle as well if not better than the P Zeros.

Stones stick in the tread and damage the tires

I replaced the tires with the All Season verison after 75 miles. Tires pick up small stones and the stones leave holes in the tread when removed. The all season version don't pick up stones and are perfect for street driving. These are track tires and shouldn't be sold for street use.

Great tires for a real performance vehicle.

Great tires, definitely lets my vehicle push its limits, had PZero’s before, the wet and cold traction is far superior, once the tires are warmed up, they perform similar under optimal conditions. I don’t understand why people with baseline cars are buying these tires. You’re Mitsubishi/Mazda/Lexus isn’t powerful enough to justify these… Base line cars don’t need high performance tires, what clowns…

Lots of Road Noise

I bought this 2 weeks ago to replace them with my Goodyear run flats due to the high road noise. The handling and performance of the car improved but the road noise is the same ! Specially the rear tires! Not sure if all of them would be the same or only my set has this problem.
