Here comes a review for Asian market which specifically for Malaysia end-users.
Hands down the best tyre that you can have. Besides from the price, everything was top notch and deliver one of the highest performance which for me is the best so far. Been fitted the tyre for my 2015 Honda Accord 2.0 T2A, which I used Primacy 4 previously.
In conclusion, simply exceptionally good in both dry and wet conditions. With a really fast response to the steering wheel, great road feedback, very predictable and a really good handling overall. The tyres just reached their 5000km milestone after just 6 weeks of installing. For a very spirited driving style and covering to almost all mix type of roads - consist of highways, urban/city, regional and old roads, I've been very satisfied with the tyres that meet my needs as a sale engineer which need me to travel a lot to meet clients in different states and basically had the car as my 2nd home.
Right from the start, I definitely can feel the difference compared to the previous set. The tyres response really well to the acceleration/gas pedal and braking. It does give me confidence to go through the roads really fast and trust it's braking power. From hitting 140km/h on average daily driving and up to 220-230km/h if the situation allow, the tyres help me to swift between cars and deliver predictable + solid cornering at highspeed. Both in dry and wet conditions.
Stunning sidewall, high grip, low noise and I also noticed that it has a good treadwear/longetivity that compliment well with my high speed driving style and lots of deep braking. The tread still looks like new and significantly less wear on the surface. Coming from other brand of tyre sales engineer that specifically target TBR (Truck Bus Radial) and LT (Light Truck), this review isn't a biased opinion but rather an honest one which Michelin Pilot Sport 5 did exceed all my expectations and overall improve/gave a whole new driving experience. A really worthy value for the money spent. Very recommended.
