PS2 to SS

I had to replace my OEM Pilot PS2 and was choosing what to do next. people in the PCA website and tirerack would say that Michelins were great and since they were OEM, I figured to stay with them. Knowing that the PS2 only had a 20k shelf life on them, I opted for the Pilot SS with a 30k life. What I got was a extreme performance tire with a smooth ride and it soaked up the Massachusetts road imperfections much better than my PS2's.

Great tires for high performance cars!

The Pilot Super Sports have proven to be an excellent choice for my Viper. They ride better than the PS2 and appear to be wearing better than average for these soft compound type tires. They are great on the track and street. I have driven them through pouring rain with conficence to maintain normal speeds. I would absolutely recommend these tires to anyone looking for the ultimate summer performance tire.

perfect tire for 911

This spring, I put a set of Super Sports on my Porsche 911 C2S. It is like having a new car. The PS2s that were on the car before were good, but these are much, much better. The handling is crisper and the ride is smooth and quiet. These are the best tires I have ever had on any car.

Simply the best for street use!

Oh wow, these are very limited in size. Ok, well the Pilot is Michelin's premiere tire. Other than the cup series which will wear fast and probably not be as good in rain and standing water, this is it. The Pilot Super Sport is the difference in your car handling like the supercar it was built to be and some off-brand tire leaving you with an imprecise mini-van like handling. The Pilot has a firm grip that does not roll over under high g turns and inspired confidence as you enter into a turn at breakneck speed. The PIlot Super Sport handles rain with aplomb as well, as long as you don't let them wear too far down.

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.

Best tire on M5.

Running them on 08 M5, great tire. Hung in there for track day, should give an indication on how I drive, great grip on dry, better than expected on wet. Overall best tire I've had on the car since new. Looks like I will get the best wear out of them.

Extraordinary handling

I was impressed with the Pilot Super Sports on my BMW M6 so I bought them for my wife's Nissan 350Z when it came time for replacement of the OEM tires. The car was absolutely transformed! Already a quick handler, turn in became more precise, lateral grip eyeball bending and ride much quieter and smoother. Neither of these cars goes out in winter weather, so the limitations of a tire like this on driving in the snow are irrelevant. I now have Michelins on all 4 of my cars and am completely satisfied. The Pilot SS is the best street tire I have ever experienced.

Outstanding handling and performance

I run the Super Sport on a 2018 BMW M6, and I wouldn't consider any other tire for that vehicle. I've tried Firestone, Continental and Hancook, and none of them handled nearly as well as the Michelin. The rubber is soft so you don't get great mileage out of them, but if you're buying a tires for that reason get a Honda. The BMW is all about performance, and this the tire that will handle the best.

Solid Street and track tire

Have had tires for over 10,000 miles, the tread is still outstanding even with aggressive daily driving. Outstanding perfomance in wet and dry conditions. They handle much better in heavy downpores than the all-season tires I previously used. Highly recommended for any sporty driver.

Simply Amazing rebirth of an BMW e36 M3!

Absolutely hands down, THE BEST tire I have ever used. Instantly transformed the feel of a fully refreshed suspension my e36 M3. As an occasional track car/garage queen, I have had the opportunity to try different brands. Not only has the general ride quality improved over other tires I have tried, but the handling is a dramatic change. Other high performance tires I have tried simply lack the cornering stability of these tires around a tack and in daily driving. That sticky feel in the summer is fantastic. I have a higher degree of confidence in cornering and braking. These tires compliment this cars handling and push it to the limit.
