Super grip through the corners. Handles like the car is going 20 mph slower than what the speedo shows. If you have a hot hatch it’s worth getting decent tyres to suit it, rather than cheap out by buying ditch finders. Wear has been better compared to other soft compounds, these have lasted longer and grip just as good if not better than Toyo Proxes TR1s and Goodyear Eagle F1. I can’t fault Michelin Pilot Sport, I’d definitely buy again.
Since fitting these tyres on on VW Passat I need to increase tyre pressurre to maxium recommended for better feel and grip.
100% better better grip. , road noise is quieter . The wall thickness makes it better on the suspension
Top notch. Excellent cornering grip and they still looking brand new. Very confident in the wet, just as well this summer being what it is. Will definitely buy again.
Had a set of PS5’s on my car previously and didn’t look at anything else when I purchased. The car is my daily work horse and does get driven hard quite frequently, the balance of comfort, noise and mainly performance is just exceptional. I put circa 20k on my last set and only need to replace due to the outer edges of the fronts being worn low and the innards on the rears which I can probably attribute to driving style and the need for an alignment. Absolutely faultless tyre, look superb too.
Excellent! Getting rid of the run flat supplied tyres from the factory has made a world of difference.
My tyre have performed well in all the weathers I’ve used them in
The car had Potenza. It is a different car since I changed to PS5. Had on my previous car(s) PS4 and I love them. The new PS5 have even a better grip than PS4 :)
They are not as good as the pilot sport 4 which I had on before them. They do not have the sidewall protection and look a bit thin on the alloys unlike the 4 which looked broad and provided rim protection bit also added to the looks in my opinion Pilot sport 4 had better traction in all conditions in my opinion
Great grip in the warmer weather not as good in the wet as bridge stones.
