goodbye runflats, hello Pilo Super Sport

Finally ditched the OEM runflats off my 2011 BMW Z4. These tires have such great lateral grip, on/off ramps will bring a smile. Much quieter than previous tires and of course, gone is that awful juddering across uneven surfaces when turning. Looking forward to finally feeling the car handle as it was designed.

From OEM Runflats to Pilot Super Sports

I replaced the OEM Run Flats on My 2012 JCW Mini Coupe at the start of summer. All I can say is WOW. The car handled well before, but it could be stiff at times with the run flats. The soft nature of these Super Sports provide for excellent grip, enhanced handling and overall a more comfortable ride. Bumps are softer. Turns are sharper and the wear is fantastic. If you are a spirited driver, these are the tires for you. They are made to perform, and that they do.

Sticky, Smooth, Quiet, Confident

My Mercedes roadster is now equipped with Pilot Super Sports. These performance tires are smooth, quiet, and confident, both around town and on the highway. Pilot Super Sprots were an excellent replacement choice for the original equipment tires. Road noise is diminished, handling and overall ride comfort are greatly improved. The tires are also very attractive and compliment the good looks of my car. They are an excellent value.....I couldn't be more satisfied!

Much better than OEM

I need replacements for my Cadillac CTS-V which eats tires. There are few good run-flat options that are also high-performance tires. I decided to go with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports after reading a lot of good reviews on them. So far performance wise they have been great, low noise, and very sticky in the dry. I don't drive this car in the winter snow, so I cannot comment on wet or cold weather performance. I haven't done a lot of mileage so I also cannot comment on wear, but after some "spirited" driving, they have held up well. I gave up on the run-flat option, and just carry a can of fix-a-flat in the trunk. The better ride is worth the trade-off. If they wear well, I would definitely buy these tires again.

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.

Great Tires!!!

I'm very happy with my super sports. I have a 2007 Porsche GT3 that I drive on the street as well as the track and these tires do an exceptional job at both. They are much quieter that the RE-11's that I had on the car before the PSS's. The grip is more consistent on track days even if it's hot out. I've only had them on the car for a few months but I'm expecting them to last much longer than any other tire worth putting on the car so it's a win-win! Buy with confidence!

Great tire for enthusiasts!

Mounted a set on my 997 when the factory PS2s had gotten a few punctures. These tires feel like they were designed with high performance cars in mind. Grip is great and the ride quality is also very good. I wouldn't hesitate to track these tires and yet I feel totally confident on the road even in the wet.

Great tire for the Acura TL

I just purchased a pre-owned 2006 Acura TL last year, but it needed new tires asap. After doing some research on-line I found several performance tests of the Super Sport, so I figured I would give them a try. I will say that the dry weather performance is outstanding and the wet weather performance is just as impressive (Wet get a lot of rain here in Florida!). The only downside is the wear. With less than 20K miles I had to replace my tires. The tire store did give me credit towards the new set, but it was an expense I was not ready for. I may rethink my next set for something a bit longer lasting as I do a lot of highway miles. Still, for any performance car, I would say give these tires a try at least once.

WOO HOO

Installed the Pilot Super Sports about 6 weeks ago on my 2012 Mercedes C Class on 18" AMG rims and WOW!! Unfortunately last week my Porsche 997 had a nail in the sidewall of it's RE050's and although not quite ready for a new set of tires it was just the excuse I needed....so on went the Pilot Super Sports. Although not Porsche N Spec, the P Dealaer recommended and installed them. Noticeable break-in period of a few hundred miles on both cars until the tire 'settles' then you really will start to grin, so if you think they are good as you first drive off after installation just wait. Outstanding wet weather traction, really impressive stability, and also exceptional braking performance wet and dry. You WILL transform your ride, even the fussiest of you out there. I offer no hesitation in recommending these (and in fact am telling people I know to buy them). No sense of wear yet, plus both cars are staggered wheel setups so I cannot rotate. Well done Michelin.

Found my love in Michelin

Why don't all performance cars come standard with the Pilot Super Sport? This is the king of all grip and performance, I liken this to someone using Gorilla Glue on my tire they just won't break from the road. Thank you Michelin engineers for bringing happiness back into my driving experience.
