Simply Great Tires!

In a few words these are the best hi performance tires I've owned. Very sticky, with great feedback and good bump absorption. Good handling also on wet. Noise is minimal.Thread wear is good also. The only drawback I see so far is higher fuel consumption and the fact that they are very slippery out of the box, so be careful during break in period. If you are looking for performance summer tires don't hesitate. You can't go wrong with Michelin Supersports!

Brought the life back out of my car!

Michelin Pilot Super Sport All I can say is wow, these tires have definitely brought the life back out of my car, 06 Subaru STI 476whp. I had not realized that my previous tires made my car feel numb and like a boat. Steering input, and the feel of the road was non-existent. I have now put 3000 miles on these set of Pilots and I enjoy driving it every time I get in. The crispness of steering is back, acceleration and grip is amazing, no more squealing in the high speed turns. They seem to warm up quickly and do not fade easily. I have had a few chances of driving in the rain and wet traction is unbelievable for a performance tire. Predictability in the tires traction is very consistent and uniform, and I do push these tires hard. I have Michelins on two of my other cars, and I don't think I will go with any other manufacturer. The quality and performance I get out of Michelins are definitely worth it. The only thing that could make these tires even better are an even stiffer sidewall than it already has. Don't get me wrong, they are stiff, but personally I like the stiffer.

Sticky

I have a 2008 350z grand touring - These tires will stick to Kentucky's curves, even taking off fast in rain. I don't think I have owned a better tire. There is a reason why everyone trust Michelin tire co. I have used them for over 25years! I wish Michelin would reward me for 25yrs of loyalty! How about a gift card or a rebate card?

Great tires

I love these tire on my SRT 8. I had slipping problems on my SuperCharged Challenger (630hp/590lb) at the track and certain "stoplight" duals. Now my traction is awesome. Import crowd with all of their stickers and coffee can mufflers are in for more terror on the street now. I never lost before, but now its two of more car lenghts instead of just one.

Great all around street tire.

Currently have 7,000 miles on these on a C6 ZR1, no descernible tread wear yet to speak of! Inside shoulders look great. Alignment is super important! I have more than enough traction above 50-55 degrees. More into spring and summer temperatures, these tires really shine. Next to no road noise. I previously had the non run flat versions from factory on my previous M3 and M4, nothing but praise for those applications.

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.

Best Street Tire in the world !

I used this Michelin Pilot Super Sport size 225/40ZR18 on my 2013 Honda Fit. No matter how hard I drive this car on the corner, never once this tire let go ! The Grip is tremendous, the ride is as comfortable as the stock tire, and the noise level is acceptable ! I think this is The Best Street Tire in The World !

What a Diference!

I replaced the factory run-flats on my BMW 135i convertible with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. This tire kept coming up in all the BMW forums. Boy, were they right! Before, I called the car the Flintstone mobile because it rode like it was on rocks. The Super Sports made it a totally different car. Rides MUCH better. I also autoX and do track days, and the Super Sport has proven to be a very competitive modern grippy tire. I recommend it highly.

Great Performing Tire

I now have 14,000 on these MPSS on 2018 X5 M. Going to “measure tomorrow, but my visual says I have a good 6-maybe 8k left. Car was four wheel aligned, pressure tested/ adjusted cold every week, rotated side to side ( staggered) every 7500. Only issue is tires get a bit hard riding & noisy at ½ life of tread. But handle...sshheeiizzziiitt!

Far superior to the old tires!

We chose the Pilot Super Sport tires based on the sales reps recommendation and our good experience with Michelin's in the past. The original tires on our 2012 G37 were very noisy, rough riding and pulled left or right with steering wheel input. The new Super Sports are extremely quiet and smooth riding (for a high performance tire) and have exceptional grip! While these tires are new, we are confident that we will enjoy them.
