Vehicle Transformed
Put these on a Poncho G8 GT along with a set of lightweight Enkei PF01 wheels. The reduction in weight and increase in traction/smoothness transformed the vehicle. It is difficult to break traction on these tires. And the car is really happy with the lower suspension load -- I barely feel surface irregularities (even railroad tracks). Utterly quiet too. Turned the Poncho into a MB. It's not fair to compare against the OEM wheel/tire combination. I dropped 10 pounds per corner and the previous tires were all seasons. But, the result is night and day. Outstanding price on the tires. $70 rebate is icing on the cake.
Super Confidence
Wow! My AMG rips and feels awesome. Took the traction control off and it still sticks. Was quite pleasantly surprise how controled the beast has become with no loss of power. Huge upgrade from the old stock tires which barely lasted 15000 miles; Plus the stocks costs more. Quiet and comfortable for normal daily driving. And fun and confident when unleash your power on the road. It's like driving a totally different car.
Great grip on this tire!
I wore my previous tire down to the cord on the inside edge of both tires. Bad camber maybe? They were 265/40/18 and I moved to the Michelin Super Sport 265/35/18 and the ride and grip is amazing. It is totally stable and it grabs hard when I accelerate through a tight corner. It just won't slide on me anymore. My 11 year old Porsche feels like it did the day I bought it! Kudos Michelin!

Phenomenal Tire
Outstanding tire, all-around. Superlatives are too few. Better than the PS2! Better handling, braking and comfort. Wow. If these last longer and realize more mpg, what a prize. Get's my vote for category crown.
just what wanted
200 miles, gives handling and ride quality looking for.
I'll never buy another brand again!
It was time to start searching for tires for my BMW 550i. Based off my experience with my X5 (Michelin MXV4+), I knew that I absolutely loved Michelin's quality, performance, comfort, and overall feel. In my search for tires I discovered there was a new animal in the game, the Pilot Super Sport. After reading reviews from many of the major automobile magazines, I decided to get the PSS. WOW!!! These tires are amazing! It's hard to believe that Michelin could produce a better tire than the PS2, but they did! In fact, not only is it a better performing tire in every aspect, it gets 10% better mileage on the road and 50% better mileage on the track! 100% satisfied with my purchase and Michelin has gained a customer for life!
