The Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 tires provide excellent grip and traction in both dry and wet conditions, delivering a confident and secure driving experience.

Phenomenal Tire technology
Had these on my Golf R AWD for a few month now and with the recent 4" dump of snow I have had the chance to drive these in all conditions. Performance has been outstanding, great dry and wet control, excellent braking and these got me out of my steep driveway where the OEM's left me stuck. Highly recommend these for all season sports car applications as they don't compromise performance.
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.

SUPERB TIRES. WORTH EVERY PENNY.
I bought these today 1/25/21 at 12pm and drove for approximately 100 miles and boy let me tell you. I came from Pirelli scorpion run flat tires and it is a night and day difference. These Michelin’s are on the money. What a smooth floaty drive on my 17’ X5 MSPORT. These tires are very sticky as I hear them when I roll down the windows. Very responsive steering improvement from runflats. These tires are everything. I feel much safer having my family in the car. Thank you Michelin.
Thanks for sharing the love, GUYANESEPAPI! We appreciate you!

Awesome tire
Just purchased one 275/40/18 tire for Mercedes Wow these tires are light weight ,softer rubber texture Very limited amount of road noise. These tires somehow makes me feel more secure driving in the rain because it Has like minimal slipping It gives you an straight ahead planted feeling while driving in the rain even above highway speeds (You generally shouldn’t do ) On dry roads it creates perfect grip , turns where I point the steering wheel My car is a 5,145 pound Mercedes s55 and the tires makes me feel confident and more in control. But like they say on reading rainbow ,don’t take my word for it, buy the tires for yourself ! And you’ll see what I’m talking about first hand
Awesome successor to the AS/3
I saw them on special at Costco and I was thrilled. These are Supreme in every way. These are O.E. on the C8! I love them on my sport sedan very much. Michelin tires are the best you can buy, they are.
Thanks for the awesome review, DannyBoy. Michelin customers are awesome!

Perfect for All-season
I have a 2020 Type R, factory tires are not meant to driven below 5C so I have to get a set of tires for the winter. There is not much snow in the winter where I live but it's always under 5C and raining. I tried driving on winter tires and all-weather tires available for my car and they both failed to meet my expectation for wet traction. Put these PSAS4 on for couple weeks and I am very happy them. They are definitely better than the Conti DWS06 on my BMW. I drive a "sport car" the way it's meant to be driven, should not have to compromise and drive slowly because it's cold IMHO. I will drive my SUV when it snows heavily.
Amazing Tires
I purchased a set of PSAS 4s for my wife's 2016 Mercedes AMG GLE43. These shoes are a night and day improvement over the Pirelli Scorpion Verdes. If we still have this SUV in 40k miles it'll be getting another set of these tires.
Thanks for the review and your commitment to Michelin tires, Husband4Wife!

CRAP-tastic fuel efficiency
2015 Mazda3 sTouring I have about 1000 miles on these, and was absolutely floored when I looked over the difference in fuel efficiency compared to the OEM tires. There is a drop of almost 20%! I checked the tire pressure with multiple gauges (2x analog, 1x digital), so they're not under inflated. The warehouse also inflated them with nitrogen if that makes a difference. I'm doing mostly highway commuting, so the nuances of 'better' handling may be lost on me, but they do feel like when I put my snows on- kind of mushy - on the road. After I get home (about 20 miles), the tires are very warm to the touch, even when it's raining. Don't know what they'll feel like in the summer. The warmth does make sense, if these tires have such a high rolling resistance, the energy is spent as heat. As a commute car, there really does not seem to be any difference in handling wet or dry pavement. There doesn't feel like any benefit to braking, and possibly a decrease in ability to accelerate. I am really disappointed in these tires so far. After reading all the positive reviews, I really wonder if anyone considers fuel efficiency. Maybe wearing these down to the support layers will improve fuel performance, but I'm not holding my breath for that.
Thank you for providing your feedback in regard to your experience with Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires. New tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires. As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases. Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve.

Hmm??
Why dont they make this in a 225/50/18 I just got a 2017 subaru legacy 3.6R Limited and they made the pilot sport a/s 3's in that size in a W speed rating, I'm looking for new tires to improve the ride and handling and everything about my car, but why should I go with a michelin if I have to settle for the old technology in the a/s 3? The a/s 4 is the newer successor with more and better technology, I got a subaru with all wheel drive so I can run a sportier tire all year long with my geographic area with occasional snow, I might just have to settle for an all season tire without a sport focus, which I dont want to do, I want an all season with a sport focus, but why should I go with an a/s 3 when there is a newer tire in the a/s 4? The answer to that is because unfortunately the a/s 4 is not available in my size, and I don't want to go with a nonfactory size either, troubling matter for a loyal michelin fan like myself, just wondering if their are plans at all to bring the a/s 4 to the market in more sizes at all? If so, i'd be interested in possibly getting some, have not actually bought the product, my ratings are just based off of my experience with michelin products in general, which have been pretty good, really honestly interested in either the cross climate 2 in the 225/50/18 in a v speed rating or higher or the a/s 4 in a w speed rating or higher, I have no use for the cross climate suv tire in my size which is designed with too high of a load rating for my sedan which would ultimately only result in an unnecessarily harsh ride since my vehicle is somewhat lighter weight, not much tire support for my vehicle in this size from michelin unfortunately, at least no tire support in the tire models that I want :(
Amazed by these tires
I've had a few good tires in my life, but nothing like the wow factor of this new design. The wet traction is outstanding. This tire inspires a lot of confidence. So much technology with the tread design and the compound. I'm not looking forward to the snow, but with this tire I feel that it will not be a problem. This might be the perfect tire for the Pacific Northwest. I live in Vancouver BC and we get lots of rain. My old set of P Zeros feel like crap in comparison to the Michelin AS4. My Mustang loves these tires !!! :)
