Great Tires

I've had my tires for about 9 months now and they're awesome!! My previous set of tires were the Continental Extremecontact DWS06. If I were to compare the two, in terms of performance and comfort, the Pilot Sport A/S 4 has been quite a bit better in the dry and wet weather...gas mileage is approximately the same for both tires. I haven't had the opportunity to drive in the snow so I don't know which tires are better. But in terms of treadwear, I would give a slight edge to the Continentals.

2nd Set of These Tires

First replacement set of Pilot Sport AS 4 tires for my 2018 Mercedes GLS 550 lasted just over 37K miles in a little over 3 years and had hoped they would have lasted the entire 45K warranty mileage. I didn't make a warranty claim as the interior of the treads wore more than the exterior by more than the allowed difference in tread depth. We did rotate the tires as recommended by Mercedes which was every 5,000-8,000 miles. I really hope these new set of replacements will last the entire 45K mileage or more. Thanks, Clyde Toms

Great tire

I no longer engage in terribly spirited driving (its been 25 years since racing school), but I still appreciate a superior sticky tire. I have also gained a fondness for a quiet , smooth ride, which you normally don't expect with a performance tire. I was therefore pleasantly surprised at how much these tires delivered all these qualities with so few of the usual compromises. For my purposes, this was an excellent choice, with much more grip than the OEM tires, and equal smoothness and very little more road noise. Unless you think you want a super stickey tire ( and are willing to pay the price in dollars and discomfort), I recommend the A/S 4. It looks like the new standard for an all season performance tire.

Don't balance, poor quality.

Terrible quality control. Michelin supplied 2 additional replacement sets and all 3 sets produced a vibration. Tires seen bouncing on the balancer and unacceptably high road force. 26lbs is WAY too much tolerance!!! 10 lbs is felt on low profile tires. No longer a market leader in quality.

HARD RIDE

My car seems to ride a little harder, than before. I removed Continental tires from my Mercedes C300.The ride sounds loud,if that makes since. But for the price I guess that was pretty good. Not to mention the warranty that came with them. Life of the tire balancing, rotation, etc, etc.

Looks great on Mazda Launch edition MX-5

I am hesitant to give a 5 star, because these tires on my Miata, seem to lack smooth steering. For example, when you just slightly turn the wheel, it jumps like it had difficulty going over its own tread?????, then when you turn back slightly it sticks and jumps. Very subtle, different then the OEM tires that were on the vehicle. Wish I really knew what was going on. Air pressure is what is on door jam. I may vary tire pressure and test.

Great handling & ride

Upsized to 18" wheels & ride is even a bit softer than the AS3's on the 17" wheels. Steering at low speed is a bit heavy with the larger contact patch than the OE 215's. Good grip cold, much better when warm. Side wall flex is a big improvement in cornering.

Great Tire but Tread ehh..

Tire has amazing qualities in which i love. Tread will not keep up the 45,000 miles in which is stated. 255/40/ZR21 & 265/40/ZR21 Are the tire sizes i own. I can not purchase Hazard Insurance due to size of tire, thankfully i have not had an instance which requires it but its good to have. Please create a tire for winter for these sizes. Much appreciated!

Sporty Look with a Smooth Ride!

Just had these tires installed on my Kona Urban Edition. (Pilot Sport AS4) I am very pleased with the sporty look of these on my car. Also it was raining pretty hard while driving with these and found them very responsive with very good braking as well. (While following recommended speed limits) Another plus is that they are quiet! Very smooth ride too. Both on Highway and town driving. I feel they grip the road exceptionally well. They should serve me well for my driving needs. Highly recommend.

Delaminates- beware!

Delaminates and must be replaced before tread life. I have had 3 sets of AS3, then AS4's and ALL have delaminated in the front just where the tread meets the sidewall. I use my Corvette Grand Sport for performance driving, but these tires are rated f.or high performance. I currently have less then 4,000 miles on my tires and the fronts need replacing
