How the Pilot Super Sport evaluated

incomplete measurement: comfort from subjective ride comfort only, wet from braking and handling only Customer reviews are not part of PTI – PTI is based on measurements from independent tests; for tyres with few tests it also partly considers the brand's class.
Technical information
Focus: Supersport
Tyres for powerful cars, where nothing is compromised — Michelin PILOT SUPER SPORT is one of them. Compound, construction and tread pattern are all subordinated to grip and stability. Tread life and comfort rank well below them, which is worth knowing before you buy.

What owners say
<p>Very noisy
Wet grip very poor with limited feel prior to losing grip</p>
Not great tyres for UK weather as poor in the wet and cold
I brought a second hand BMW 335i with new PSS * at all corners.
225/40 R18 & 255/35 R18
Dry handling is very good, good grip and even better once up to temperature.
Wet handling, is a no. Traction control kicks-in too often, understeer is never far either. And I nearly lost the rear once in a normal curve at normal speed, the ESP saved me.
Aquaplaning seams to arrive fast as well.
Wear is good, I'm not an aggressive driver. Front tyres are still very fine. Rear have maybe 35% left after 40000km.
For the Noise, I have nothing to compare with. Same for comfort. But my winter tyres are more comfy (Gislaved Eurofrost).
I'll choose something different next time as in Belgium we have quite some rainy days.
Ran the PSS on my BMW 325i from 2014 to 2024 (!), they managed just above 50 000km/31 000 miles still having about 3mm of tread left driven on Swedish relatively rough asphalt. Some slight dry cracks appearing. Square setup on 8,5x19" and rotated them about 4 times. Ran about 2,8-3,2 Bars of pressure.
Great steering feel and (specially when worn down a bit), very good grip but a little high in road noise and bouncy ride on uneven surfaces. Didnt seem to aquaplan that easily, but wet grip was a little lacking (never felt dangerous). Suprisingly good below freezing (dry) ambient temp. Seemed to last forever! Pretty good rim protection as well.
Replaced by PS5 on 2024 on same wheels, same dimension for better comfort and looks (lol).
I had these tyres before replacing them with michelin ps4s. Honestly, I liked the PSS better. It's barely noticeable but it's there. I felt like the PSS was just more direct, more responsive, I don't know exactly how to describe it. The ps4s is an amazing tyre too, dont get me wrong. However, just like all michelin tyres I've owned over the years, by the sixth year, the PSS had developed cracks even though the car was parked indoor in a garage. I had the PSS for a little over 9 years, and once I dismounted them, I noticed the inside was almost completely torn. Still better than my ps4, which suffered from the same fate after only 6 years, but it's pretty scary. Michelin claimed their tyres can last 10 years, but I never got to the 10th year, especially if the car is driven daily. I still had lots of tread left on my PSS, so I guess in terms of wear it was pretty good. Much, much better than my old PS2, which was almost completely bald after only 4 years. Overall, the PSS is an excellent tyre.
