unsatisfactory

I just replaced the Goodyear tires in our MB S class and I'm shocked to tell you how noisy these tires are! I just drove 150-200 miles and I think I'll take it out ... at this point I'm looking for another option and I'll probably test two or three variants and as soon as I'm satisfied with the performance I'll find it I'll warn my friends to avoid making the same costly mistake as me. On the other S Class car I used the Yokohama brand and they didn't look as noisy as the much acclaimed Michelin Pilot Sport 4S! I will also test SP SPORTMAXX GT which seems to be very quiet and smooth ... even other brands seems to offer good variants.

Awesome!

Just replaced the the P Zeros that came with my 2017 Porsche 911 Carrera with these tires. What a difference! Much better ride and they’re much quieter on all road surfaces. I do not track my car, so I can’t compare the two on the track. But I’m told that they handle as well if not better than the P Zeros.

Top Performance

I bought these these tires for a new set of rims that are on my BMW M2 Competition. The tire performance of the 4S is improved over the OEM Pilot Sports. The driving dynamics and stability at the track exceeded expectations. Excellent wear characteristics with good feedback.

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.

Great tire - what are low temp ranges

Excellent tire. Handles like it is a set of RR tracks. Question - what is the minimum temp for driving. This tire is on a Porsche 911. We live in TN and still have nice days in the winter. But, we have a northern route road trip planned, not in snow and ice, but possibly with temps below 40. Nights could dip below freezing but we won't plan to drive then. Is there an absolute "do not drive" temp where we could do tire damage or be unsafe?

Paul, summer tires are designed for year round usage but should not be used during the winter season where temperatures are colder and approach freezing consistently as their performance would be less than optimal.

WOW

Bought these tires yesterday. Replaced the Hankook tires that had 27,000 miles on them. They are ok tires but the PS4S are amazing. Super quiet, firm on the ground and totally changed the dynamics of my Audi TTS. Now I know I have only had them for 1 day, but had to express my enjoyment!

HORRIBLE Tires for the Track!

I take my '15 911 Turbo to the track 4-5 times a year. I drive in the "advanced group" at these events. The 4Ss I purchase failed in 3 track events. The outside edges of the tires delaminated to the cord! Michelin would not honor their warranty, even though these tires are advertised for occasional use at the track.

Really good tires

I have 32,000 Km,s on my tires and still have all kinds left, I can drive my car in the rain even now. They are a little pricey but well worth it in the long run. I have been asked many times how much I have liked then and given a good review. In the summer I use the car daily

Stones stick in the tread and damage the tires

I replaced the tires with the All Season verison after 75 miles. Tires pick up small stones and the stones leave holes in the tread when removed. The all season version don't pick up stones and are perfect for street driving. These are track tires and shouldn't be sold for street use.

BMW M3 Comes To Life

If you’re considering this tire stop procrastinating and make the move. You will not regret it. With less than 300km in wet and drive conditions this tire comes to life. In addition to the standard Michelin warranty they also have a 50,000 km warranty. They back their product. Enough said. I have a staggered configuration so my warranty is half which makes sense. Again, if you’re looking at the tire you’re already in the party. As the saying goes, if you have to ask......
