Great Tire

Plus: quiet, compliant ride, excellent handling and braking in both dry and wet conditions. Minimal wear with 8000 miles on tire set. Negitive: muted thumping sound at speeds above 45mph. Suspect it is not due to the tire as I had this on my previous set of tires. (balancing and alignment were within normal limits) so I suspect it is the suspension geometry.

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.

Excellent product for the value

I've had the Michelin PSS on my M3 for approx 8,000 miles. They're a great, solid tire. The cornering and braking capabilities are awesome. Great wear too. Road noise is also very low compared to other tires I've had in the past. I've done one track day with the PSS and they held up really well. Overall very satisfied with the performance and dry traction.

Best tires ever.

I have used other tires on two or three occasions with regret in the past 25 years. Michelin tires are the best. There is no substitute. I am very particular with my cars and tires. Any car with Michelin tires is a better car. Especially the summer tires. They grip on any surface: dry, wet, snow, even ice. Yes, even ice. They are quiet, comfort and handling are amazing. PS I never write reviews. I made an exception to help anyone with less tire buying experience. I did not give excellent on wear-life or fuel efficiency because I have performance tires and drive aggressively. Not the tires fault. They perform as designed.

excellent tires

Purchased Pilot Super sports about 500 miles ago for my Cayman. Replaced PS2s. Handling and braking is excellent, ride seems a little smother. But than again my old tires were 6 years old and rubber probably hardened up by now. Very happy with my selection.

What a Diference!

I replaced the factory run-flats on my BMW 135i convertible with the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. This tire kept coming up in all the BMW forums. Boy, were they right! Before, I called the car the Flintstone mobile because it rode like it was on rocks. The Super Sports made it a totally different car. Rides MUCH better. I also autoX and do track days, and the Super Sport has proven to be a very competitive modern grippy tire. I recommend it highly.

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.

Persistent leak down tire

After a year and a half this tire has a persistent leak down that accelerates as pressure lowers. It is unreliable and there is no excuse for producing such a poorly manufactured tire. Tire seller is unable to repair this tire despite 2 attempts. So get ready to replace more than one.

Absolutely Brilliant

Time and time again, Michelin tires exceed expectations. I had PS/2s on my previous car and was very happy with them. When I purchased a different car, it did not arrive with Michelins so I drove on them for a little while, and then found an excuse to replace them when part of the sidewall was peeling. I purchased Pilot Super Sports and they are fantastic. The ride in my car is so much smoother and they grip through the corners very, very well. Michelins are far and way the best tire you can get and worth every penny.

Takes my GS to a new level

Just replaced the OEM tires on my 2011 Corvette Grand Sport with the Michelin PSS. I can't believe it's the same car. The ride is so much smoother and quieter. I do a lot of driving on rural roads mixed in with Interstate highways. I enjoy pushing the car to it's legal limits and look forward to some track days. The grip of these Super Sports is unlike anything I have experienced in the 3 Corvettes I have owned. The GS is known for a "scuffing" sound and feel at start up speed with the wheels turned. I was resigned to this. It has disappeared with the PSS tires. Simply amazing! Should have made this move a long time ago. Now I need to get more than 16,000 miles on the set as that is what the OEM tires have given me.
