Michelin Pilot Super Sport Reviews

Given 96% (breakdown) while driving a Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk 5 (remapped 270 BHP) (235-35-19-W)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5,000 average miles
Bought these to replace my 18" Toyo R1R and wanted the best road tyre possible that occationally would see track day action, i have not been dissapointed. They demand high pressure even on track (40PSI hot) but they could keep up with stripped out BMW's and Clio Cup racers at Donington, and afterwards they comfortably transported 3 people and luggage across UK and half way across Europe without having lost any of their handling or quiet behaviour. Best road tyre money can buy. Still a lot of tread left.

Given 89% (breakdown) while driving a Vauxhall Vectra (235-35-19-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 4,000 spirited miles
Have tried Conti Sports, Goodyear F1s, Michelin PS2s this tyre eclipes them all by a good margin in all areas. Dry grip is the best I have ever experienced to the degree that understeer is almost eliminated! I would highly recommend this tyre and I will be buying another set.

Given 91% (breakdown) while driving a BMW 5 Series M Sport ( E60 ) (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 1,000 average miles
I have put these on a BMW 535 D M Sport touring and this tyre is by far the best that I have ever experienced. My car is not running on runflats and I have struggled with comfort and wear on other brands. The Michelin is supreme in all areas and you are wasting your time in buying anything else.

Given 99% (breakdown) while driving a BMW E46 M3 CS (225-45-17-)
Driving on a combination of roads for 5,000 spirited miles
Quite simply the best tyre I have ever used - it has successfully taken the crown from the Pilot Sport 2; therefore, the best tyre available.

Dry grip is borderline madness, and wet grip is vastly improved over the PS2 - its now on par with all-weather tyres. It's quite incredible how they've made it work when you look at the tread pattern and see what looks like an old Formula 1 tyre!

I cannot recommend these enough - if you have a high-powered sports car like a 911, M3, M5 etc., give it what it deserves and get a set of these - you will not be disappointed.

Given 100% (breakdown) while driving a Porsche 997 911 Carrera 4 (295-30-19-W)
Driving on mostly country roads for 3,000 spirited miles
Fitted to my 997 C4.

Replaced the Pirellis, though previously used the Michelin Pilot Sport 2.

The Pilot Super Sport is epic. Dry grip feels up there with the cups, wet grip is better than any other tyre I've used. Not tried in standing water yet but I'm sure they'll do fine.

Can't comment on wear as only been on 3000 miles but them to be wearing well, comparible to the pilot Sports which were always excellent. Looking forward to getting them on track.
