Reviews: Michelin Tires LT235/35ZR18, Pilot Super Sport Tires - 16289

SOOO GREAT!! Having driven the 2015 BMW M3 with the Michelin Pilot Super Sport and the other OEM option, there is no comparison... The Michelin is superior in every way. The feel, feedback, and confidence inspiring grip is something you need to experience to grasp an understanding of the performance of the Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

So far so good out perform the Goodyears hands down, could break the Goodyears loose easily not with these.

Why don't all performance cars come standard with the Pilot Super Sport? This is the king of all grip and performance, I liken this to someone using Gorilla Glue on my tire they just won't break from the road. Thank you Michelin engineers for bringing happiness back into my driving experience.

So far, So Good! After 500 miles I am very happy with my Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. They are mounted on a 2007 Audi A4 FWD. The tires seemed to stick like glue from the first day that they were mounted. I noticed more braking adhesion right away. They seemed to give my A4 new life and give me more confidence. They have been driven mostly on weekends in mixed city and highway driving. They ride nice on the highway with little tire noise. Yet they are very stable going through the curves. In the next few weeks I will be joining the local Audi club on several spirited drives. I will know a lot more about the tires after that.

I drive a 2007 Subaru WRX STi with a KW V3 coil over suspension system. My first set of Pilot SS lasted 31,000 miles of hard driving and performed flawlessly during that time. I rotated and balanced the every 5000 miles and constantly checked and adjusted the tire pressures. I have purchased many high performance tire brands in my life for many cars, but my experience with Michelin and these tires has made me a fan for the future. I have just purchased another set of Pilot SS for my car and look forward to another happy experience.

I JUST FINISHED A FULL TRACK DAY IN MY SATURN SKY RACE CAR EQUIPPED WITH PILOT SUPER SPORTS. THESE TIRES HELD UP BETTER THAN ANY OTHER STREET TIRE I'VE EVER USED FOR TRACK. THEY WERE VERY PREDICTABLE AND HAD EXCELLENT GRIP, EVEN WHEN HOT. WITH A PROPER TRACK ALIGNMENT, THEY WEAR EXTREMELY EVEN. STARTING THE DAY, TREADWEAR WAS 9/32. BY THE END OF THE DAY, THEY WERE WORN TO 7/32 ALL THE WAY ACROSS. BY THE THIRD SESSION, I WAS DRIFTING CORNERS DUE TO THE LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE THESE TIRES GAVE ME. EXCELLENT TIRE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. THANK YOU MICHELIN FOR ANOTHER GREAT TIRE.

I drive a high performance sports car and I depend on the excellent handling that Michelin tires provide. I recently decided to try a different brand tire. What a huge mistake. The other brand tire caused the rear end of my car to drift dangerously around corners. It was even unstable while going straight on the freeway. Luckily I bought them from a store that took them back and replaced them with Michelin tires. I will never change again. I never thought that there was such a huge difference in tires. I'm a true believer now! My car will always have Michelin Super Sport tires from now on!

Put these on 2007 ve ss ,daily driver .The grip in wer n dry were outstanding, we had them on gor 24k before selling the car and there was still over hslf the tread left to go.

Best tires hands down. Handling, gripping, smooth ride.

Absolutely hands down, THE BEST tire I have ever used. Instantly transformed the feel of a fully refreshed suspension my e36 M3. As an occasional track car/garage queen, I have had the opportunity to try different brands. Not only has the general ride quality improved over other tires I have tried, but the handling is a dramatic change. Other high performance tires I have tried simply lack the cornering stability of these tires around a tack and in daily driving. That sticky feel in the summer is fantastic. I have a higher degree of confidence in cornering and braking. These tires compliment this cars handling and push it to the limit.

The Pilot Super Sport is the best performance tyre I've ever used. The only tyre that comes close is one that is no longer available, and that was a Dunlop Formula W1. Those that have used the Dunlops will know then how good these Michelins are. Fabulous in the dry or wet, quiet and with great balance. I've got these fitted to a high performance V8 sedan.

I put a set on my 2004 Vette and they are great. Quiet, smooth, and handle very well. 1500 miles and the car is a joy to drive. No noise even with top down. Would buy again. Good friend with identical Vette feels same way. Highly recommend them. Be careful of tire pressure. It is important.

I have these ties on my 1992 Porsche 964 and these are the best tires i have used!

The PSS tire is bay far the only tire I would choose for my performance vehicles that have time on the road and track. Theuy are designed well, handle both in dry and wet normally past the normal driver's limits. Tire wear is to be expected aggressive but I have avergaed 15,000 miles under many road conditions. If your and your families safety is paramount. How could you not provide the best driving and handling experience?

I have used other tires on two or three occasions with regret in the past 25 years. Michelin tires are the best. There is no substitute. I am very particular with my cars and tires. Any car with Michelin tires is a better car. Especially the summer tires. They grip on any surface: dry, wet, snow, even ice. Yes, even ice. They are quiet, comfort and handling are amazing. PS I never write reviews. I made an exception to help anyone with less tire buying experience. I did not give excellent on wear-life or fuel efficiency because I have performance tires and drive aggressively. Not the tires fault. They perform as designed.

I just bought my second set of PSS tires for my Lexus IS350C. I had about 25,000 miles on them, which is good considering I can't rotate the tires due to the size difference between front and rear. I didn't have any handling issues as the tires aged, and I didn't notice much difference in noise. This tire is outstanding in the dry or wet. Hopefully, I get another 25,000 miles out of these!

A great ride. Soft, quiet, gooey, different than what I had. It's a 08-Z06, so it's hard core. This seems to be what I needed all along since I am an old guy looking for the best ride. I use the car as a grand sport and we travel all over the US. The best is; day two with the new tires and I run over a screw, the screw penetrates the rib on the tire tread and does not get by the casing/inner liner. The windows are down and I hear it! CLICK CLICK CLICK and I stop. I see the screw. Pull it out. AND LIFE IS GOOD!!!!

Bought these Super Sport tires for my 2008 Cadillac CTS to replace the original Pilot tires. Absolute love these tires!! They stick to the road like glue, I baven't been able to get them to break loose yet and I have been trying. I don't see myself buying another brand or type of tire for any of my sports cars ever again.

Just up graded my tires to 18 inch Michelin Pilot Super Sport. The same tires on my Z06 Corvette . Very happy with this tire on all my cars . I drive hard . My Honda Accord EX-L Touring Sedan came with 17 inch Michelins . I wanted more meat on the street , went to 18x8 wheels with the Super Sport tires . Better grip in turns and braking . Off to Road Atlanta to break in the new tires . Thanks Michelin ! Another great job .

I drive a 2007 Corvette Z06 , 600 HP at rear wheels . Michelin Super Sport tires keep me on the streets . I live in Florida , rain and hot weather . I drive hard . These tires handle great in the turns , very good braking , good tire wear after 13,000 miles . I will buy Michelin Tires for all my cars . Thanks Michelin , Good job!
