Great Tire

Plus: quiet, compliant ride, excellent handling and braking in both dry and wet conditions. Minimal wear with 8000 miles on tire set. Negitive: muted thumping sound at speeds above 45mph. Suspect it is not due to the tire as I had this on my previous set of tires. (balancing and alignment were within normal limits) so I suspect it is the suspension geometry.

Awesome Tires

Bought these Super Sport tires for my 2008 Cadillac CTS to replace the original Pilot tires. Absolute love these tires!! They stick to the road like glue, I baven't been able to get them to break loose yet and I have been trying. I don't see myself buying another brand or type of tire for any of my sports cars ever again.

Best sports tire yet

I previously went through a set of Pilot Sport PS2's on my 2001 BMW 330ci convertible. Those were great tires that were quiet and cornered hard without squeal, but only lasted about 2 years and about 25,000 miles. The new Pilot Super Sports which I put on this past November were as quiet as the PS2's and even slightly better on cornering. With the longer rated tread life at about the same price as the Ps2's they are good evolution of the model. It's not a cheap tire, but it's definitely superior to any other I've had on this car.

Best road tire in existence

I bought these a couple weeks ago, and they're everything people cracked them up to be! They are the perfect tire for anybody looking for that half step down from full slicks, while still maintaining that quiet and fuel efficient expectation we all have for a daily driver. I've had passengers in the car that notice the difference too, but around corners you can really feel that sidewall being reinforced and designed for those high speed maneuvers. The stock tires on my Golf R were grippy but the you could feel the sidewall start to let go at high G's and that made you lose confidence. These are the most amazing tire for the summers!

Performance Tires for my Audi A4

I got these tires by mistake - Audi dealership, despite my request to get all season tires gave me these and tried to persuade me that these are just as safe in cold weather as all season tires. I did not think that is the case. I have to say during summer, they are great. The only things that bother me are when I am in my building's parking garage on concrete after it's rained, the tires make this annoying noise. Other than that, all good.

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.

Best street tires on my Audi

I am on my second set of these on my Audi Avant (255/35/19) and am very impressed. They are incredibly durable and when I do track days in the rain I leave these on and they have performed very well for a street tire. The only problem I ever encountered was at a two day track event where I expected rain and instead encountered 90-100+ temps. The edges of the tread blocks did incur some chunking but with more than 3 degrees negative camber and high temps, it was not unexpected. Overall wear was minor even with that abuse...and that is a 4000 lb wagon being pushed to keep up with so called "sports cars" By comparison, the OEM tires from an Italian manufacturer wore out very quickly and were prone to flat spotting if the car sat undriven for a week or more. Two other models from a German company were noisy and also lasted less than 12k miles each. I should disclose that I have been given 2 sets of The Italian company's tires and currently have a third set of their Dot-R compound tires mounted on my track wheels. Regardless, I prefer the Michelin Pilot Super Sport and think it is a phenomenal tire for longevity as well as grip all with minimal tire noise. I recommend them to all of my friends seeking high quality perfomance street tires that last and know that a set will soon be replacing the older Michelin PS2's currently on my Mercedes E55 AMG. Please make these in a size for my Cayenne Turbo (295/35/21)

Best Tire Ever!!!

One of best wet traction tires on the market. Feels like the roads are dry when it raining like crazy. Best handling tires on the market also. Makes the car handle like it's on rails. I recommend these tires for the best summer tires out there. BEST Choice EVER.

Superb tires

I purchased the tires in June for my BMW 650i convertible and have driven cross country - some 6000 miles - in the last two months and have beem amazed at the ride comfort, lack of road noise compared to the factory run flats and the handling and grip of these tires. I tend to drive aggressively and the tires have responded well in every situation. Highly remommend these tires.

39k still have tread

These tires took me across the US 6x. 39k miles tread just at bars. Very good wet weather traction and also snow. I was caught in a sudden unexpected blizzard while crossing the Continental divide in southern Colorado. Halfway up it hit and after 20 to 30 tense minutes I crossed over the summit. Only vehicle on the road was me and Corvette snowplow. I passed a Policeman going the other direction I could see his jaw drop when he saw me :) Mighty fine tire ! New ones being put on Monday.
