Great Performance

Use it on my 08 BMW M3 as a daily driver to and from work, have not been to the track and keep traction control on so no drifting either. Tires have grip through everything and were great in rain. 7,400 miles later, I have chords showing as of yesterday. Great performance all the way up to the chords. Would definitely advice others to get these, great grip, really low noise. Other than tread life, I have no complaints about these tires.

Great Tire

Used on the street and at the track. Great longevity and very good handling on the track but still good on the street and in the wet on the track. The only way to get a better handling track tire when it is dry is to go to a track/dry only tire and they do not last near as long. You sacrifice a little dry track handling for excellaent longevity and wet performance.

Look versus feel, new Pilot Super Sports

I recently purchased a set of Pilot Super Sports 245/40 ZR17 on the back and 225/45s in the front, for my 10 year old CLK 430 AMG convertible. I only have 28,000 miles on this car and I really liked the original equipment tires which were the Pilot Sport model, recently discontinued. I really liked the look of that old tread pattern and recall the tires felt great at higher speeds. So I was concerned about how the new super sport tires would feel, and looked. After a recent trip to Boston, about 4+ hours each way at highway speeds, the new tires felt great on the road. We had rain at one point for over an hour, and I felt just fine. The Super Sports have a deeper channel for throwing off the rain, so at higher speeds I felt more comfortable than I recall feeling when running the old tires in the rain at highway speeds. The old model tires certainly had a lower profile for rain. On the new tires in the rain, I did not have any instances of slippage or instability at any point in time, particularly when taking the entrance and exit ramps from the highway at reasonable speeds. I also have not noticed any unusual wear on the new tires after about 2,000 miles of usage. However, I do miss the more aggressive tread pattern on the old tires and how they looked on this particular sports car. MB.

Best overall street tire period

I do a lot of auto x, hill climbs, track days, & different events. Some of which require d.o.t. street tires only & I must say there is no better overall street tire than the P.S.S. Wet & dry grip from this tire is outstanding for a tire that lasts as long as these. All of my street legal toys run these tires, drive to the track, hot laps, drive home... My only complaint is that the P.S.4.S. will be making its debut soon & out of the 46 sizes listed I don't see many to fit most of my toys. Come on Michelin you're killing me

The only performance tire I'll ever buy

I bought the Pilot Super Sports as the 3rd set of tires for my heavily modified BMW 335i. These tires took my car to a whole different level of performance. Their grip on the dry land and especially on the wet roads are remarkable. My wife was a little skeptical about the additional price, but as soon as I took her out in my car and showed her how dependable and SAFE they are, she literally said to me, "I don't ever want you to buy another tire". The grip and performance are truly top notch and why every supercar and hypercar maker puts Michelins on their cars. These are the pinnacles, the best, second to none. And for them to be priced so that everyday guys like me can buy them, that's just remarkable. THANK YOU MICHELIN!!!!

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.

PSS

Spirited driving, I have not been to the track yet but the tires hold the road very well and the ride is nice as well. Its too early to say how well they wear. I have about 2000 miles on them. My only problem with them is that the installer had trouble putting them on my S2000 rims and scuffed up my rims .

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.

Best Street Performance Tire

Went from the PS2 to this tire. Was skeptical on the switch initially, and wanted to get the PS2s again. Bought them and will never look back. The Super Sports seem softer than the PS2s, so the Super Sports grip excellent when hot. 2000 Audi S4, 600 hp.
