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 !
Great Tires
Tires perform great, smooth quiet ride!
Outstanding Pilot Super Sports !
I custom - ordered my E92 BMW 335ix new in 2008 to get it equipped as I wanted, then had it upgraded with Dinan parts. The one thing I could not get around was the factory run-flat tires. At 30,000 miles, I replaced them with non- run-flats, and liked them, but one of the tires wore pre-maturely, and the manufacturer wouldn't adjust it. I knew what to do. I purchased a set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports, which I had avoided earlier in an attempt to save a bit of money. After approximately 3,000 miles I wish I bought the Super Sports last time. They "Contact" the highway better, they are silent and absolutely smooth. From past years of Michelin ownership, I know if I have a problem, the company will stand behind their products.
Big improvement over OEM tires
30k miles on the PSS and still running strong. Improved both ride quality and handling over the OEM tires. Especially good at gripping sharp corners at high speed. Would buy again.
So far real good.
Great tires, i have had them for about 6 months and they are great. I drive hard on corners and the once in a while hard on brakes and always happy with the outcome. so far tire tread looks good for the way i drive. I would definitely recommend this tires to friends and family.
350z
Used these to replace the stock tires that came on my 350Z. Noticed immediately that I had more confidence in driving the car over the other tires. Definitely recommend to anyone to buy these tires.
Great, all-around tire
I've got these on a 2003 BMW 330i, which previously had a set of Pilot Sport 2's that lasted for 22,000 miles. I have about 13,000 miles on the PSS and the tread seems to be wearing well - still has 8/32 depth minimum left. I drive in a spirited manner but never on a track. Pros: Awesome grip in the dry and wet. Pretty quiet for a high performance summer tire. Responsive, but not to the point of feeling darty. Cons: A little pricier than the average high performance summer tire. Could maybe be a little quieter and absorb bumps better - but hey, it's a high performance tire, not a touring tire. Overall, an excellent choice for those who enjoy driving.
Jetta TDI drives like a Vette
Tires stick like glue, put them on my Jetta TDI with 18" GTI wheels and love them, would and will buy them again!!!
I will buy the same tire again
I put the Pilot Super Sports on my 2007 Porsche 911S and they are the best tire I have ever used. The car sticks to the road on wet or dry pavement. The best hands down.
Always my choice for OEM replacement
Whenever my new car needs replacement tire I choose Michelin. I want the best performing tire in all categories for the season and for Summer Performance the Pilot Super Sport (PSS) delivers for dry and wet traction, ride comfort and tread life, and is a noticeable, superior improvement in all areas to the OEM performance tires as delivered. I have never been disappointed or regret choosing Michelin.
