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.

Superb tires

I purchased the tires in June for my BMW 650i convertible and have driven cross country - some 6000 miles - in the last two months and have beem amazed at the ride comfort, lack of road noise compared to the factory run flats and the handling and grip of these tires. I tend to drive aggressively and the tires have responded well in every situation. Highly remommend these tires.

Best tires for my BMW M3

Super Sports came standard on my 2017 BMW M3 (with competition package) I am soon updating my ECU etc with a Dinan ECU tuner, intake and Heat Exchanger. Traction will become a real issue, so I'm upping my rear 275s to Pilot Super Sport 305s. In spite of my present 507 HP the Michelins really grip the road. In tight corners I feel like I'm on rails.

Perfect Performance Dailt Driver Tire

Have the Super Sports now on two cars, 02 M5 and M Coupe. Recently completed a 5k round trip in the coupe to Laguna Seca and back to Texas. Super Sports are excellent highway tire and perform extremely well on the track. Very responsive and progressive and predictable. Heat stable. So far noise is minimal. If the mileage lives up to the rating i will have found the perfect tires.

Amazing Performance and Daily Driver

The Pilot Super Sport tires are an amazing product. Michelin had a high bar set with their PS2 line and these somehow managed to exceed my expectations. They have refined road manners with their low noise and comfortable ride. The PSS makes easy going of any commute or road trip and it really makes no sense how they last so long but perform so amazingly (I am on my second set). The real test of these tires is at the track where they surprise everyone with the amount of grip for a non-racing slick tire. Having run many a HPDE I can say that any driver would not be left wanting when choosing the PSS as a tire they can drive to the track, drive on the track with confidence, and then drive home on. These tires are so good at so many things and are even reasonably priced. I don't know what voo-doo Michelin is caught up in over in their R&D department but I say hats and helmets off to you my friends...Bravo.

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.

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.

Didnt last long

Only 8500 miles on a new 2018 C63S AMG with 285/30ZR20 in rear and 255/35ZR19 in front. The rears are gone and only have another 500-1000 miles of life left till they are completely shot out. The front tires are holding up just fine. Very disappointing. I have never done any burnouts and never taken any long road trips and only drive the car hard occasionally on regular roads.

Making the best better

I drive a 997 Carrera with the OEM tire being Michelin Pilot Sport PS2. I switched to the Michelin Pilot Super Sport and wow, the best got better. The Super Sport has the same handling, if not better, with a longer tread life. I participate in autocross and driver's education events with my local Porsche Club and do not feel the need to go back to the PS2.

Pilot Super Sport - Grip - Guts - Glory

One of the best tires I have ever owned. The Super Sport summer tires gives me confidence on all road conditions. This tire has grip in wet or dry weather. The offer me full control when approaching sharp curves and rounding corners. My MB C300 Spot 4 Matic already handled well the Super Sport makes it even better. My tire installer told me when I got these tires that thy had "hops" in the front pair and I am not sure what that means. What is a "hop"? I just hope that these "hopped" tires don't translate into premature wear. The only thing I don't like about these tires is that I will have to take them off in the winter.
