The #1 Upgrade of Your Cars Handling
I live in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina by choice mainly because of the outstanding paved mountain roads in this area. I drive a 2007 Corvette Z06 and have recently purchased the Pilot Super Sport tires. This tire was made for the Z06; at least in my opinion. Everything about the car is better; braking, turn-in, corner speed and exit speed. I also have a spare set of wheels with Sport Cup tires and the Super Sports are not far behind the Sport Cups in traction but much better in any standing water. I have a 21 year old Grandson that drives a RX8 and he asked me what would be the best upgrade for his money. I recommended he install Super Sport tires for his upgrade and he loves the way it made the car handle. Only downside is they are expensive but well worth it.
tires
I put 4 new tires on my car and after 8 months of driving I had a blowout on the front and the tire wear was not very good. the orginal tires lasted 5 years and the replacement tires did not last 2 yrs, for the price we paid I would have thought I would have gotten better life out of them.

Simply Super
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.
Best Street Tire in the world !
I used this Michelin Pilot Super Sport size 225/40ZR18 on my 2013 Honda Fit. No matter how hard I drive this car on the corner, never once this tire let go ! The Grip is tremendous, the ride is as comfortable as the stock tire, and the noise level is acceptable ! I think this is The Best Street Tire in The World !
Fantastic grip in wet and dry conditions
In my opinion these are the best tires in both wet and dry conditions! Better wet weather traction then the various "all season" tires I have used, and fantastic dry weather cornering and handling. I have also had excellent tread wear for a performance tire. This tire is a winner!!
Sticky, Smooth, Quiet, Confident
My Mercedes roadster is now equipped with Pilot Super Sports. These performance tires are smooth, quiet, and confident, both around town and on the highway. Pilot Super Sprots were an excellent replacement choice for the original equipment tires. Road noise is diminished, handling and overall ride comfort are greatly improved. The tires are also very attractive and compliment the good looks of my car. They are an excellent value.....I couldn't be more satisfied!
Super Sport's Transform My Audi's Ride
Replaced my 2010 Audi Q5 OEM 'high performance' tires with the Michelin Pilot Super Sport XL long before necessary. The Audi OEM tires were very noisy at all speeds, giving me a headache on long trips. What a remarkable change, installing the Pilot Super Sports ! My reward was a very quiet ride plus allowing me to enjoy my premium sound system while driving. The wet weather handling at high speed has improved dramatically. The Pilot Super Sports are a great, long wearing tire and I recommend them to everyone.
Dry or wet, grips like a cat
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. ;)
Super sport

Excellent Holding in all conditions
