I previously went through a set of Pilot Sport PS2's on my 2001 BMW 330ci convertible. Those were great tires that were quiet and cornered hard without squeal, but only lasted about 2 years and about 25,000 miles. The new Pilot Super Sports which I put on this past November were as quiet as the PS2's and even slightly better on cornering. With the longer rated tread life at about the same price as the Ps2's they are good evolution of the model. It's not a cheap tire, but it's definitely superior to any other I've had on this car.

I currently own a set of 225/45/18 Michelin Pilot Super Sports and the amount of grip that these tires offer do not compare to any other tires out in the market. Dry grip is phenomenal along with the wet traction. I currently have 6000 miles on these tires and have absolutely no issues. Would recommend to anyone in a sports car and have a heavy foot.

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.

I bought these tires to replace my Pilot PS2's, and so far they have been worth the money. They give my car a lot of grip around the corners. They also have been pretty good in rain. I can't comment on wear life because I haven't had them to long, but they don't seem to have lost much tread. Would recommend these to anyone who has a sports car that they want to get a little more performance out of.

2 door coupe, 5.0L V-8, rear wheel drive. Looking for traction in dry or wet conditions, no cold weather here. Installed on all four; F 225/40R18, R 255/35R18. The Pilot Super Sport gives me ride, handling, predictability. Yes, I *can* break them loose, but I have to consciously want to. Otherwise, starting, stopping and cornering is sure-footed. 8,270 miles now, still look new even with *some* abuse. ;)

Michelin Pilot Super Sport All I can say is wow, these tires have definitely brought the life back out of my car, 06 Subaru STI 476whp. I had not realized that my previous tires made my car feel numb and like a boat. Steering input, and the feel of the road was non-existent. I have now put 3000 miles on these set of Pilots and I enjoy driving it every time I get in. The crispness of steering is back, acceleration and grip is amazing, no more squealing in the high speed turns. They seem to warm up quickly and do not fade easily. I have had a few chances of driving in the rain and wet traction is unbelievable for a performance tire. Predictability in the tires traction is very consistent and uniform, and I do push these tires hard. I have Michelins on two of my other cars, and I don't think I will go with any other manufacturer. The quality and performance I get out of Michelins are definitely worth it. The only thing that could make these tires even better are an even stiffer sidewall than it already has. Don't get me wrong, they are stiff, but personally I like the stiffer.

I replaced mis-matched tires on my 2004 BMW 330ci with sports package and 18" wheel upgrades. They are much quieter and smoother, handling and grip are excellent. They have really upgraded the feel and performance of the car. It took me a couple of days to get used to the difference but now I would not do any other tire.

Why don't all performance cars come standard with the Pilot Super Sport? This is the king of all grip and performance, I liken this to someone using Gorilla Glue on my tire they just won't break from the road. Thank you Michelin engineers for bringing happiness back into my driving experience.

Aggressive Street Driving/Autocross Excellent Street grip in either dry or wet conditions, wear rate is also great. Only problem I had with the tires is that they did not match my demands of them in autocross, about 1 second off the pace compared to other cars running the extreme performance category tires, since these are only max performance I give them the benefit of the doubt. Love these as street tires though.

I want to start by saying that I "only" buy Michelin Tires. I have had most of the performance tires since the 1970's and have always been impressed with the quality. This is my 3rd set of "Pilot" series tires and have to say this is my favorite tire ever! Quiet, good in the rain and handles in the dry like (rubber) glue on the road. I hope I don't get over confident with regards to how my car now grips in the corners. I have always been a safe but fast driver and feel confident these tires will forgive my occasional mistake.
