The best high performance tires ever

From the first few moments driving on these new tires, I felt as if I was riding high up, on air, compared to my previous tires. The tires grip the road well, especially in rainy, slippery conditions. The tires help the car, an M3, to easily handle corners even at high speeds. I love the way the tires look and feel - and - they seem to be wearing evenly and I am told they will last much longer than other tires I have had before.

Excellent Tire for C6 Z06 Corvette

Great dry grip, excellent rain handling, GRADUAL breakaway cornering, braking is controlled, better cold weather grip. Before the Super Sports the rear would instantly break loose, not now I can even use some throttle. Honestly Michelin just makes a better all around high performance tire. I have 7 months of driving, 5000 city and 3000 highway for a total of 8000 miles on them. There's still over half the tread on the rears, that's good if your not familiar. I've owned the F1-GS, GS-D3; Supercar, G2; Pilot PS, PS2, and Super Sport. Supercar, G2, and Super sport on Z06 only. It would be surprising if you regretted buying these.

Excellent Tires

So far, So Good! After 500 miles I am very happy with my Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. They are mounted on a 2007 Audi A4 FWD. The tires seemed to stick like glue from the first day that they were mounted. I noticed more braking adhesion right away. They seemed to give my A4 new life and give me more confidence. They have been driven mostly on weekends in mixed city and highway driving. They ride nice on the highway with little tire noise. Yet they are very stable going through the curves. In the next few weeks I will be joining the local Audi club on several spirited drives. I will know a lot more about the tires after that.

Simply Amazing rebirth of an BMW e36 M3!

Absolutely hands down, THE BEST tire I have ever used. Instantly transformed the feel of a fully refreshed suspension my e36 M3. As an occasional track car/garage queen, I have had the opportunity to try different brands. Not only has the general ride quality improved over other tires I have tried, but the handling is a dramatic change. Other high performance tires I have tried simply lack the cornering stability of these tires around a tack and in daily driving. That sticky feel in the summer is fantastic. I have a higher degree of confidence in cornering and braking. These tires compliment this cars handling and push it to the limit.

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.

Finally, a tire that lives up to its rep

Finally, a tire that lives up to the on-line reviews I have read. The previous tires on my 08' Mercedes E350 w/ sport suspension were extremely noisy and although they had plenty of tread I couldn't take the noise after 15K miles. The Pilot Super Sports are quiet and grip the road well. I can't comment yet on how much life I will get, but thus far I couldn't be more pleased with the purchase. My Mercedes dealer recommended these tires initially.

It is the thing

I have a 1000 mile on the pilot super sport installed on my infiniti G35 Coupe and it is a fun experience. The grip is phenomenal and the handeling is superb. I just want to verify if they will last 2x as there compatertor, if this the case...then i found my tire brand.

G35

I have installed Michelin Pilot Tires in my G35 since new(original tires). I have not liked the very short life they have. These new Pilot Super Sport are a good compromise between a good grip and durability. These tires las a little longer but they are not as "grippy" as the Pilots II.

PIOLOT SUPER SPORT...WOW!

I have a 2003 BMW 530I w/ sport M suspension. As soon as I installed Michelin Super Sports my car evolved to the next level. They are very smooth riding and quiet yet are great for aggressive handling. So far, minimal/very good wear. I would buy again.

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.
