Pilot Sport 4 S TYRE REVIEW

Beware

Beware, I bought 2 rears for my M140i, car went straight for an MOT after fitting, less than 2 miles away. Just to find out they only come with 7mm of tread, as apposed to the normal 8/9mm the mot inspector gave my brand new tyres a 75% wear rating. How can this be, no wonder they had to be replaced way sooner than I expected.

Amazing all year round

The PS4s are the best tyre on the market. They are amazing on the road in wet and dry and really held their own at the Nurburgring. I wouldn’t use anything else

wear

Not that my comments matter to a huge company, but for what it's worth. I am not a boy racer, at 63 years old, and have a 2016 Mondeo tdci 180 with 19" alloys, which I bought 2nd hand. Was fitted with 4 s when I got it, and the fronts need replacing shortly thereafter, so when they needed replacing I did like for like on the front. Great grip, but the wear awful. Less than 6000 miles. I only do 8000 miles per year. Over £360 when I replaced them. On to Avons now. Equally as good a grip through all conditions, but I get more miles and much cheaper. Won't buy Michelin again.

Amazing, but don't expect them to last long.

Have these on a 475bhp quattro Audi S4. They are a perfect compliment to the Quattro system; insane levels of grip on dry cornering; breathtaking wet weather grip; low road noise. However, I'm lucky to get 5k miles out of them. I drive 'keenly' now and again, but definitely not a drag racer by any means.

Drives like a dream and sticks like glue !

I must say that its the best road in the market for sport cars !

Outstanding tyres

I drive a Kia Stinger GTS rear wheel drive with 370bhp. With the stock tyres (Continental Sport Contact 5P) I would regularly loose traction when putting my foot down, especially when exiting a roundabout, the rear end would fish tail a bit even in the dry. Now I have a full set of MPS4S tyres on what a difference it has made. There is no loss of traction now even in the wet. The levels of grip these tyres provide will blow your mind. Handling is also massively improved, steering is so precise and for such a heavy car there is no understeer even at fast speeds in corners the car just turns in so well. Stop wasting time and just buy them, you won't have any regrets.

Not even 7k and front two down to 3.5 and 3mm

I am a careful driver, and the car is the 2nd car. I bought 4 PS4s. The front two are down to 3.5 and 3mm in a year. Back two 6.5 and 6. Car has wheels aligned 2 twice a year and pressures checked every 2nd fill up. Feel ripped off.

Don’t bother with any other brand

I got 25k out of a set of Pilot Super Sports and 30k from a set of Pilot Sport 4S, nothing else compares

Second set of these tyres on this axle and Michelin PS4s are so much better than the Bridgestone tyres aaudi put on their TTs Although a summer tyre it performs well in the winter in the wet. Shame not a little cheaper though!

Brilliantly - after many years of trembles with Continental tyres these wheels are perfectly smooth. They're also a bit quieter than my previous tyres. Overall very happy.
