Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 205/40 R17 84 W XL, ZR

The best tyre off, I noticed how much more speed than I can take corners without the rental car to go and how much harder can I accelerate out of turns at very low speed. The grip in the wet is phenomenal, the first time I drove in the wet on tires on the front I forgot it was raining handling has not changed until I noticed the car understeer in tight corners . I do not have the Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 is on the rear axle, for their adaptation to the front, I noticed that the car now loves oversteer and lost the rear in wet conditions due to many levels higher front end grip. My rear tyres are not near the wear limit but I will modernize back to the Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 next week. It is no coincidence that the high-powered cars such as koenigseggs ect all come with either pilot super sport tyres or sports cup 2 tyres. If you have a Fiesta ST MEANS FORGET any other tyre, these are the ones to have, I have tried many upper and middle range Hankook V12 evo as (current rear tires) and Uniroyal RS3, and Pirelli P Zero Contisc3 and while that they have some good features blow out the water from the Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 Read more Collapse

So far the best tyres I have had. Grip in the dry and wet is sensational despite the low weight of the car. The only inconvenience is that they are quite noisy and wear quickly, but this is the price for phenomenal grip. For someone looking for a tyre for aggressive sporty driving, this is probably the best possible choice. Read more Collapse

I'm happy with these tyres considering the low shoulder and sporty characteristics you can't expect too much comfort. More than just good grip. Read more Collapse

Some of these criticisms are hilarious. I appreciate the comments are global, but part of Chinglish is funny. Anyway back to the tyres. I like Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 and it is a personal thing, and after so many cars and so many different sizes, one thing that I find is constant tire wear. Now I find when I replace my tyres on cars here in the UK, you can count on it being a mixture of wet and dry most of the year cannot we 50 / 50? Other brands grip very well, some have lasted for some time, some refuse to wear out and crumble (Pirelli) and others just refuse to enter a stop. I choose Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 now because apart from lasting almost twice as long term as budget tyres, low rolling noise is important, but a bug bear of mine is when a tire is half worn out and you hit white lines to be dragged in any direction - although the Michelin Pilot Sport 3 seem to wear and are much more predictable than others. Yes, they are expensive, but they last, they are well, they are comfortable, but they also more grip when you need it. Curiously Road 3 Michelin Pilot bikes on work just as well. and no, I do not work for them. Read more Collapse

I was looking for a long summer tyre suitable for my BMW E91 318d with sport suspension (m-pack) and I decided to buy Michelin until very good results. Now I am partially satisfied with Michelin PILOT SPORT 3. Very good handling, high precision targeting, even in the rain - a good braking performance - moderate rolling resistance (average consumption has not increased) - good resistance to mechanical damage - a speed of about 30-40 km / h leads to an angle of 30 degrees to the curb, the wheel slipped along the edge, rim and tyre striped no trace - a comfort to inequality amortization (non Run Flat tyre) that the side is not great. Disadvantages: - high turnover volume. The sound of tires (225/45R17) already appears at 60 km / h to 100 kmh merger with Air noise (if not annoying). I expected better performance, despite the fact that it is a class of sports tyre. Do not judge the durability, I drove 3000 km only, no signs of wear. I recomand Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 Read more Collapse
