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!

Best Tires Ever Ford Mustang Saleen

I replaced a set of P-Zeros on my 2007 Saleen Mustang after reading all of the great reviews about the PSS online. I am running 295/35/20 rears and 275/35/20 fronts. So far I only have a few hundred miles on them. The ride and noise are noticeably different with the PSS (better and quieter). My Saleen makes about 600 rwhp and these tires hook up well. They are not for drag racing. HOWEVER, I competed at an autocross event this summer and beat all 150 cars entered, including some with full race slicks. I cut about 5 seconds off my lap time (about a 1 minute autocross course) which is remarkable. Turning and braking is where these tires excel. These are the absolute best tires I've ever run, and I will continue to buy them as long as Michelin manufactures them. If you are on the fence about purchasing them....BUY, BUY, BUY! You won't be disappointed.

Be a Hero

This is the very best street tire ever made. Wet or dry, there is no street tire which sticks better, is more perfectly round, or wears more evenly. Do not expect 30k miles: I get about 15k miles. I do not do burnouts or other silly things. I am a racer, and an instructor of road racing and high performance driving, and have done these things for many decades. I'm also a certified master tech...and I know tires VERY well. Once you've driven on these tires, you really can't bring yourself to buy anything less....I am on my fifth set, and the only time I take them off my car is when winter comes. Exactly as advertised, these tires will bring you to a dead stop if you try using them in the snow. But they'll make you a hero in the wet or dry!

Great tire besides comfort

Expected more but a great tire in the dry and wet. I am amazed at how well it does with both. The comfort is way below the rating Michelin gives in my opinion. It has been the most harsh tire I have had so far comparing to other summer sport tires in its class. Besides the comfort level everything is amazing and also the tread life compared to others in its class, seems to last around 50% longer than tires that are just as good performers in the dry.

Good wear, wet and dry performance GREAT feedback.

Have had these on an ALFA Romeo 4C with some mods. The stock P tires didn't last that long and on track got "greasy" after 3 laps. Worse was they emphasized tramming. The PSS have been on the car for 2 years now....much better wear, tramming dramatically less, Feedback is very good on these...perhaps even better than latest P4S although on paper the P4S is very slightly better in wet pretty even in dry. I might have tried P4S but at the they didn't have them in 215 size. The PSS also are better than my old stock tires on track in just about every way. 245/215 combo (+1 sizeing) on a 4C and maintain the same aspect ratio as stock makes for a greatly improved ride for street and occasional track day. There are tires more suitable for track only but those generally are poor as a daily driver/occasional track day tire.

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?

Terrible Tred Wear

I normally put about 7,000 miles a year on this car. Mostly driven on short trips. Last year drove across country, about 7300 miles. The car handles well, but the wear factor is awful. After less than12,000 I am almost down to the wear bar. Needless to say I am looking for another brand of tire that will give longer tred wear.

Excellent tires!

I have a set of 255/35 and 275/30 on my 2005 M3 ZCP that I mainly use as a daily driver I absolutely love these tires they hold up well, grip superb, and after a few month and a few thousand miles later they still look and handle like I just put them on. Only complaint I have is why I never got these sooner and why wernt they free

Outstanding performance

I drive a high performance sports car and I depend on the excellent handling that Michelin tires provide. I recently decided to try a different brand tire. What a huge mistake. The other brand tire caused the rear end of my car to drift dangerously around corners. It was even unstable while going straight on the freeway. Luckily I bought them from a store that took them back and replaced them with Michelin tires. I will never change again. I never thought that there was such a huge difference in tires. I'm a true believer now! My car will always have Michelin Super Sport tires from now on!

These are truly the best all-around performance tires

I work at a tier one dealership and work with PSS as well as their two direct competitor tires and the PSS always perform better. Better grip, less road noise, and best ride quality. They also tend to have the best QC with the least amount of defects compared to the other two competitive tires. A++
