Hi. I work in another city and commute daily in my private car,so 300+ km most of it highway. I have tried various inventions and companies but I no longer make mistakes. If you want to buy a tyre, I can confidently and in good conscience recommend Michelin. Best regards

These tyres have an awesome amount of grip in dry or wet I can put the power down a lot better than previously and cornering confidence is massively improved I would definitely buy these again

Initially wanted to stick to Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2's that I had on my 20'' wheels but they do not make them in the right size for my new 21'' wheels so went for Michelin PSS instead and apart from road noise increase they are just as good. The Goodyears are a very high benchmark IMO

They wear well are comfy with great feel and grip like glue in the dry. They are expensive but you get what you pay for and reassuring that you know they are going to stop quick if u need to.

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.

Exceptional traction on dry and cornering floor. The car runs well, safely and it is easy to predict his reaction. I have not tested these tires in the rain. We'll see :)

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.
