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.

Good Product

I purchased a set of four about 45,000 miles ago, and have had only two flats during that time. The treads are ok, but I have a crack all the way around the outer edge. Is this very unusual? It did not happen with my original equipment tires used 7.5 years. I have used this set about 7.5 years, also. THX/"CHUCK"

Fantastic tire

I drive a 2007 Subaru WRX STi with a KW V3 coil over suspension system. My first set of Pilot SS lasted 31,000 miles of hard driving and performed flawlessly during that time. I rotated and balanced the every 5000 miles and constantly checked and adjusted the tire pressures. I have purchased many high performance tire brands in my life for many cars, but my experience with Michelin and these tires has made me a fan for the future. I have just purchased another set of Pilot SS for my car and look forward to another happy experience.

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++

Pilot Super Sports for everyone!

I purchased Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires for my 2001 Audi S4 with 600 whp. These are the quietest and smoothest tires I have ever experienced. Also these tires perform better than any other tire I have had, I never lose traction and never hydroplane! Truly an amazing tire, I would recommend these to anyone looking for a summer tire whether they use them on the track or not. Absolutely amazing!

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.

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.

Michelin Pilot Super Sport dissapointing

Used it on my 2015 Volvo S60 AWD. Tires are worn out to 3/32 tread after only 19k miles of mostly highway driving with almost no luggage and only me driving. If these tires are rated for 6 yrs and 45k miles, why this excessive tread wear? Tires were rotated every 5k miles and 4-wheel alignment also done every 6 months. The snow ride is very poor and car slipped in parking lot and incurred bumper damage. Only plus for these tires is the handling on curves on dry roads. Overall disappointing tires.

super sport on bmw

Ive waited a month before I decided to give this review so it could be accurate as possible. Long eniough to to get a good feel for the new tire and not too long so I dont remember the feel of the old tires I use to have. I have 20 in. racing rims on my 5 series BMW and the larger rims decreased the ride quality. After extensive research I chose the Super Sports. Ride quality is a little better but not much of a difference. Tractions about the same. The major difference is the grip you feel in a turn. The 3000s I would feel a slight roll and the SUPER SPORTS handle the perfect. Also, road noise was reduced with the SUPER SPORTS.

Great Tires for a Sports Car

I have Pilot Super Sports installed on my 2020 Toyota Supra Prem 3.0. 255/35/R19 on the front and 275/35/R19 on the rear. I have had the car on curvy roads and at speed. They are solid, feel solid, and hold the road extremely well. They provide a feeling of confidence when the performance point is at a level is where it counts. While I can't speak for him (other than that he also thinks that the tires are very good), my neighbor has Pilot Super Sports installed on his Porsche GT4, as well. We're a neighborhood commercial. ;-) [When I spec my car on the Michelin site for this tire, however, it says that it does not have a recommendation for my year/make/model/trim. Since they come installed from the factory - can't get a higher recommendation that that - you might want to address this.]
