Good Tires but not much time with them Yet

I bought these tires a few weeks ago. They are on a 2014 Porsche Boxster. I like the handling so far. I noticed that they feel loose when they are cold but seem to get stickier when warmed up. Still too early to say how they are overall as I have no experience in wet conditions yet and less than 1000 on them.

Outstanding tire

I recently purchased a new vehicle. The tires it came with handled fine but were exceptionally noisy. I first tried the Pilot Sport A/S 3, which were much better, but research suggested the 4S would be quieter, and it was, considerably so. Beyond that, the 4S offer incredible handling and braking performance (both wet and dry) over the A/S 3S, so, if you can live with a bit shorter life, get the 4S. Super happy here!

XXXcellent road & track tire!

Put a set of Pilot Sport 4 S tires on my Corvette C6 this summer. Quieter on the street than I expected. On the track - wow! I pushed my 'Vette much harder on corners than I ever have before, and still feel like I haven't come close to driving these tires to their limit! Extremely solid traction and control. Can't imagine any tire that could do better.

Great grip

These tires are exceptional. Coming from another OEM tire and moving to these, I was hesitant at first. Would it change the car dynamics? My first order of business was to improve the wet traction, as I often found myself in rainy weather and was not entirely comfortable on the other OEM tires. They match the performance and handling, and in fact, I have much better traction now and have driven the same road with both tires. I can say that I 100% agree these are the best setup for my car.

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.

Incredible Performance Nissan GT-R

I have had Nitto NT01s and Dunlops from the factory on the car. The way that 4S handle is incredible. lighter feel of the wheel, grip at every temperature, they dont have to be warm. wet weather traction is 95/100 amazing tire. will not use anything else!

What happened to a really good line of tires?

Just got a set of these to replace an all season Michelin set from 2012 on my C6 Corvette that were fantastic tires. What ever you did to “improve them” created a very distracting loud road noise no matter what surface of pavement that I am driving. I have used Michelin since the 1980’s. I currently have a replacement set on my 2018 Accord Hybrid, 2024 CRV Hybrid, 2007 Shelby GT, and 2005 50th Anniversary Thunderbird. All I wanted was a good set of general driving tires so could enjoy cruising in my Corvette. I plan on returning these under the 60 Day satisfaction guarantee and would like to replace them with Michelin’s, Is there a model that will work for just cruising?

Outstanding performance!

Got these three weeks ago and well satisfied! Outstanding wet and dry traction performance. Far superior to the Goodyear F1’s. I like them better than the old Pilot Sports but they also perform far better than the Goodyear F1’s. Car has an Edelbrock Blower doing 605 HP. Pilot Sport 4s is up for the opportunity! No problem.

Great Tire

These came stock on my 2019 Veloster Turbo R-Spec when I bought it new last year. I'm right at 40,000 miles with 70% highway commute, 30% in town driving. The tires are at 3/32nds, well beyond the life I would expect from this type of tire. Regarding performance, read any review of the 2019 Veloster Turbo R-Spec and most, if not all will say these tires make the car great - and they're right. I'm shopping for another set as we speak.

Performance and comfort

Traction nd handling on the Michelin Pilot 4S tirs is superb. These tires replaced the original Michelin Pilot 2S on my Porsche and the 4S are stellar on dry pavement and seem to handle even better on wet pavement than than the orignal Michelin's. The 4s also provide a surprisingly quiet and comfortable ride on a high performance tire. I would highly recommend these summer tires for any high performance cars where traction and handling are paramount consideration without comromising on comfort and quiet. Very happy with the Michelin Pilot 4S so far and would highly recommend.
