Pilot Sport 5 TYRE REVIEW

Done 26k last year and about 3/4 way through my second set of PS5, great handling and I’m going to assume wear life but not had anything to compare to as I’ve only had ps5 since I’ve got the car. there could be more sidewall protection to avoid kerbing but over all probs getting about 15miles per set of tyres with wheel alignment done each time. Tyre pressures are set to 38/39psi on the front and 35/36 psi rear, I feel these pressures made the steering a lot more responsive and agile and my theory was that they would last a bit longer as well I experimented with loads of tyre pressures on different weathers and that worked the best for me. I do along motorway miles and twistys on my days off so they tyres went through there paces. smacked a good few pot holes and always held up probs the XL side wall helping with that. over view Class handling Not too noisy Last a while giving the fact my driving style and roads are harsh. Cons Quite expensive Lacking rim protection I’ve just purchased good year eagle f1 A6 so I’ll see no they perform and I’ll try compare the tyres.

Amazing tyre and handling feels better the the 4s Michelins

Excellent going to get some on the back

Excellent tyre great mileage

The PS4's i had previously felt grippier and gave more confidence in all weathers. straight line performance, the PS5's hook up well(if not slightly better than the 4's) but much more happy to slide than grip down in the bends.

Decent grip in all weather conditions but took some scrubbing in (500 miles or so). Car feels less sharp than with the original run-flats, but the improvement in ride quality outweighs this. No more juddering when going over potholes!

Excellent performance

Have tried other boots these work really well from new till done. Fantastic every day tyre. I have Tried other lead brands and still the best all round tyre for the money even past 200bhp! ps4s above 350!

Had trouble getting through snow/mud uphill. though I only just bought the SLK and may have not maximised the gear settings.

Better tyre wear,better ride and decreased tyre hop
