Great tire - what are low temp ranges

Excellent tire. Handles like it is a set of RR tracks. Question - what is the minimum temp for driving. This tire is on a Porsche 911. We live in TN and still have nice days in the winter. But, we have a northern route road trip planned, not in snow and ice, but possibly with temps below 40. Nights could dip below freezing but we won't plan to drive then. Is there an absolute "do not drive" temp where we could do tire damage or be unsafe?

Paul, summer tires are designed for year round usage but should not be used during the winter season where temperatures are colder and approach freezing consistently as their performance would be less than optimal.

Not what I expected from Michelin.

Bought two sets of Pilot Sport 4S’s and on my wife’s 335is the rears came apart with the tread separating from the sidewall on the inside of both rear tires. Alignment is perfect, proper tire pressures maintained at all times and my wife drives the car properly and carefully. I don’t understand why this lapse in quality occurred.

Really good tires

I have 32,000 Km,s on my tires and still have all kinds left, I can drive my car in the rain even now. They are a little pricey but well worth it in the long run. I have been asked many times how much I have liked then and given a good review. In the summer I use the car daily

Great Tire

Thankfully these came on my new 911 that I ordered (you can't specify tire brand) - much preferred over the Pirellis Zeros that typically come on new Porsches. On my previous Boxster, I switched from Pirelli to Michelin Pilots and was pleased. Note: I don't track my cars.

Amazing Traction

I own a 2019 BULLITT Mustang with a Stage 2 Whipple Supercharger and 825 HP. I spent a great deal of time researching and asking automotive people in the know what tire I should have on my car for when I went on the race track at AREA 27 in Oliver, BC. Time and again I was told that there was a reason why Ford put Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires on you high performance Bullitt. Well everyone was absolutely correct. I pushed my BULLITT to the limit the entire day and the Pilot Sport 4s Michelins gave me everything I could ask for, grip, traction in the corners, predictability, feel and ride. A WIN, WIN for me and my BULLITT!!!

Confidence inspiring!

Changed out from the stock run-flats, which wore out so quickly and developed a drone overtime, to the Pilot Sport 4S. Cannot imagine going back at this point. Smooth, quiet, yet far more sticky which helps boost the confidence of the vehicle! Will definitely buy more in the future.

Discontinued tires.

This is a brand new tire and they discontinued what is the only tire size that can be put on a 2001-2004 ZO6 Corvette! I know that 28,388 may not be a sizeable enough market for such a large corporation, but no one else is making that size either so 100% market share seems pretty good to me...

Fantastic summer tires

The grip provided by these tires is astonishing compared to the other brand OEM tires they replaced. Wet and dry traction are superb. I'm also impressed by the ride quality and low noise level. My only regret is that they don't come in 16" as I also need tires for my BMW. I may have to upgrade that car to 17" wheels so I can equip it with 4 S's. Remarkable tires!

unsatisfactory

I just replaced the Goodyear tires in our MB S class and I'm shocked to tell you how noisy these tires are! I just drove 150-200 miles and I think I'll take it out ... at this point I'm looking for another option and I'll probably test two or three variants and as soon as I'm satisfied with the performance I'll find it I'll warn my friends to avoid making the same costly mistake as me. On the other S Class car I used the Yokohama brand and they didn't look as noisy as the much acclaimed Michelin Pilot Sport 4S! I will also test SP SPORTMAXX GT which seems to be very quiet and smooth ... even other brands seems to offer good variants.

Defective Tires

I must have driven less than 5000 km on these tires on my Audi Q7 Technik there are side bulges on 2 tires. These 2 tires have the same DOT. The 2 tires that are alright have a different DOT compared to the defective ones. I am a very careful driver. I do have additional winter tires on rims hence the mileage has been low on these tires. disappointed that an expensive tire is not made to last.
