Michelin Pilot Sport

Absolutely the best tyres I have ever had. Yes, they are expensive but you do get what you pay for. This is my second set on the fronts which the previous ones had covered 30K miles and somehow they seem quieter than the set before. Not sure why or whether there has been an upgrade or they are simply new.

The rears still have some life in them but I will be changing these later in the year.

Little tip, ensure your tracking is setup correctly. Makes all the difference in the wear.

In conclusion, you won't be disappointed in the Michelins. Enjoy and drive safely.

I bought the tires two years ago, I did 15,000 miles with them and they can do more. The thing I liked most about these tires was the feedback with the 2 ply side wall, Above 50 km they make noise. Above 25 degrees you grip a little better than a Pilot Sport 4. And below 10 degrees on a wet road a very, very dangerous tire !. The tire costs about twice as much as the Pilot 4 pilot but He is no twice as good. P. S tyrereviews The best tires site !

These came N rated on my 2011 911 (2019 manufacture) and they grip well when warm but would say very noise tyre for Michelin. I would go with PS4S or PS4 next time round. It feels like a tyre from an older generation.

After checking out many reviews, I have Just had these fitted & without doubt the best £900 I've ever spent on a car! They totally live up to & justify the many good reviews I read. My car came fitted with Bridgestones & was very average to drive, I than fitted new Pirelli P Zero's, which were recommended to me, the quality of the drive improved & to be fair lasted 20k without trying to kill me once they became borderline legal. What a difference having the MSSP's on, every driving sense has become heightened & I can get all 334 BHP on the road without fearing spinning of it! Still early days yet, but will update once I have had them on for a year.

so I bought these tyres to replay a set of Goodyears for the my Vauxhall Insignia Sports Tourer. I do a lot of mixed road driving and we also do a lot of long distance motorway driving to see family in Europe.

The grip on these tyres are great and never let me down. When the car is full with kids, bags and bikes on the roof its good to know that you have great tyres on. Climbing the mountains in France and Switzerland through the tight corners you feel the grip with no under or over steer.

Last April we were driving through Germany with a full car and it rained for two days straight. The substantial standing water on the motorways was dealt with with no dramas.

Shame that I think that they has stopped making this tyre so I have now just changed to a set of Super Sports.

Bought car with these tyres fitted. Remaining tread about 50 to 60%. So impressed after the first long drive on twisties, I bought another set for my wifes Audi replacing ContiMaxContact. The PS3s are quiet, responsive and solid underfoot, providing the driver with a high degree of confidence. Recommended.

These tyres are very good sport tyres and reduce any abs being driven quickly on turn in makes it fun to drive. When they are warm they perform much better but they wear very quickly, I went from 4mm to zero in 2000 miles watch out for your tracking.

I looked at a few sites that reviewed tyres and these came out top each time. I had 4 fitted last week and the last few days we have had a lot of rain. These grip so well compared to my last lot which were continentals. I would recommend these to anyone I'm well impressed.

having used high performance tyres for over 28yrs I can honestly say as a road tyre, the Michelin Pilot Sport is one of the best I've tried. It has fantastic dry grip, very good wet grip. Only downside is that because it is quite a soft compound, it won't last as long as some other cheaper harder compound brands, but what you lose inuk rage, you more than make up for in dry grip level. I'll be trying the michelin pilot sport cup + tyres next as they are more track focussed.

Well worth the money.

Having bought the car with them fitted by the previous owner so i don't know how many miles they have done.My car is a 10'plate 320i M Sport,done only 26K miles,i've had it a year,don't do a lot of miles,for example since the 21stFeb i've done 3000miles,i don't drive like a hooligan,but i do like using the grip of the tyres,i can't honestly say they aren't any good,noisy?,well, yes they are a bit,best tyres for a three series?...well apparently it's Falken Azensis?,i'd say Continental sport contact,my M3 gripped like the preverbial limpet on these!

Im driving a Leon 1M 1.8T with 261BHP/395Nm and had these tyres on set of wheels I bought (OZ Ultraleggera). They are quite noisy and wet grip was dissappointing. Progressiveness is also very bad, i had these fitted at the back (front were Pilot Sport 3 tyres) and the lost grip whilst the front tyres still had grip. Dry grip is nice, but wet is dissappointing. I dont have them very long, so hard to comment on the Wear.

I have had better results with the Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta tyres, which are very high on my list (also cheaper!)

Not recommended for me.

Overall a good tyre, that withstand very hot road temperatures and good on wet performance, but very noisy. 45000km done and the tyres are baked due to the desert temperature 50c, still lots of tread .

Much better than the PZero's on my XK Jag

This tyre is no longer made, which is a pity... A truly excellent tyre which, in my opinion, was only bettered by the MXX2's originally fitted to the Lotus Elan SE, and the MXX3 replacements... The reasons for the 9's in the scoring. In combination with Exaltos on the rear the grip and feedback are terrific.

Will be really stuck for a replacement...

Had these tyres foe approximately 9000km. Found them to be excellent in the wet with the ability to channel water well. No serious wear as of yet. Pressure checked every 3-4 weeks. Only complaint is that the compound is soft and a small stone shaped like a triangle managed to accomodate itself into the compound and leaving a small hole after removal and it is quiet on smooth tar sealed roads but found it noiser when driving out in the open roads in N.Z where you have "metal" or "chipped" roads. The noise is noticeable, and many comments suggest that it is a quiet tyre but I felt some mid range Firestone would be on par with this noise level.
