Michelin Pilot Super Sport 295/35 R18 103 Y XL, ZR

While setting up my Peugeot 508, I took a chance and I had mounted the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres. As there is 163 horspower , I'm not able to verify the limit of adhesion from the start and the accelerate - the engine does not keep up with these tyres. Therefore, I can not comment about braking. In that case I think it's best to keep an eye on everyone and wear a seatbelt. Regarding the grip during cornering – that's a lot of fun! Not only the limits of adhesion are moved very far, it is when they are exceeded, there is no nervousness. The driving is extremely delicate and easily noticeable skating warns that the continuation will not be possible. Note that I'm using the 18-inch tyres and here a surprise - the comfort of elimination of inequality is still very decent. For me, it is a quiet tyre and the tyre wear not yet in sight. I can't wait for spring tyre change! Read more Collapse

The Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres are way better than the previous tyres that I had. This purchase did not disappoint me when it comes to the behaviour of the tyre in wet conditions. It really surprised me with the severely strong grip when cornering and braking. Brakes are improved and that was the bad side of my car. Now the problem has disappeared. Driving on a highway is a dream, much calmer than the Bridgestone’s, very gentle and quiet. Very good in comparison with predecessors, better speed and offset, slightly heavier wheels. My driving style is moderate, but generally fast and dynamic. Very light when you compare them with the predecessors. I think I will be able to drive on them up to 18-22 thousand miles. There is nothing that could be wrong with tem, I’m very satisfied. Read more Collapse

Simply the best tires I've ever had on any car I've owned. I've put the Michelin Pilot Super Sport on the BMW M5 and they have increased grip over the Continentials that came on the car. Frankly well beyond my expectations. This tyre isn't cheap as you probably noticed, but it's worth it. I felt compelled to buy them because they are really good. I can not comment on longevity as I have had them just for a few thousands of miles, but seem to be great and frankly I do not care if they'll use up earlier than the previous model as increase in adhesion is worth the money. I'm living in the UK so I drive a lot on wet roads. I was struggling a lot with the previous tyre, With these fitted to my car it's a complete game changer and I'm very impressed with them.

I bought the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres. These are quiet and have an excellent adhesion. In a clear way raises safety and driving accuracy. Significantly reduces the car’s reaction time. This is the best tyre I have ever tried. It shows all its advantages when I compare it with all the tyres I had before. These tyres give me access to comfortable driving, which is amazing. I can definitely recommend this tyre to all. Read more Collapse

I have had two sets of these tyres. Neither has lasted more than 12,000 miles (19, 200km) on the front axle. I drive in town and on motorways, so they don't meet abnormal challenges. Since buying the tyres I am reviewing, I have had to change again and have moved away from these tyres. They preform well in other respects but not so well that their appalling economy can be overlooked. Read more Collapse
