  Judging from the fact that it is the sport series of Michelin, a company with a great history in tires, these specific ones disappoint me quite a bit. Used on a four-wheel drive car with 400 horsepower, the tires fail to achieve the grip you expect from such a tire in any case. They prove to be inferior even to the previous Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 that I had, which had done 38,000 km and even at the end of their life, the car did not slip. Otherwise, they quickly reach the appropriate temperature, but I think it is one of the last priorities for a sport tire. Overall, you feel the car floating a bit, as if you have overinflated the tires, and it does not give you the confidence to push it not excessively, but a little more. Perhaps their performance is dramatically better in countries with better road surfaces than ours!

  I saw reviews from abroad because I put them on as soon as they came out and because they were very positive, I decided to try them.
  I put them on a BMW 118i 140hp and I have driven 10,000 kilometers.
  I am not satisfied at all with their grip. The car spins and they have no traction at startup. With the factory tires (Bridgestone Turanza T005), the car was like a train! I didn't put the same ones because they have a soft profile and the car drifts, which is the only negative thing about the Turanza. The Pilot tires have harder sides and the drifting is reduced significantly, but overall they don't have good grip, especially on dry surfaces. They are slightly better on wet surfaces, but still worse than the factory ones. Needless to say, I regret putting them on!!!

  Excellent tire! A real beast for drivers who demand something more from their car. The best I have ever worn on my car.

  I bought these specific tires on 08/22 and have driven 3,500km so far.
  They are very nice tires because they are XL, they stand out and protect the rim. The fuel economy is the same as the previous ones that the car had, Continental Premium Contact 5. The grip is better compared to the previous ones, however, when you start pushing at higher speeds, the car tends to lose control and skid. Lastly, they could have been a bit softer for more comfort.
  They were installed on a Mercedes Benz C200.
  Front: 225/45/R17
  Back: 245/40/R17

  Although a new tire on the market and always approach with caution. The tire is incredible in dimensions 225/45/17 bmw e46 115 horsepower brings you full information on the steering wheel. It has incredible grip in dry and wet conditions. For the profile of the tire, it is quiet. It does not hit the car in potholes. And it quickly reaches temperature, the most important thing for a tire.

  Verified purchase

  The decision to purchase them was a big headache, as it is a brand new tire and not widely tested.
  They were installed on an Audi A3 sedan, in size 225/45/17, and have covered approximately 2000km.

  Excellent sport tire, with premium sidewalls.
  Flawless in dry conditions, with great grip and relatively low levels of noise.
  On wet roads, a true revelation, defying the laws of physics, providing confidence comparable to dry conditions.
  With a rich feel and feedback on the steering wheel, regardless of weather or road quality.
  With perfectly controlled braking.
  The ESP has never turned on so far.

  In my personal opinion, I believe Michelin has achieved the perfect balance between dry and wet performance, between dynamic characteristics and (relative) comfort.

  Obviously, due to their newness, it is not possible to have an opinion on wear, but I will reserve judgment in this area, mainly due to the brand's track record.

  *Since the tires have only been in use for 3 months from their production date (last week of '21), and according to experts, a tire "matures" and reaches its maximum performance at around 6 months, I observe them improving day by day, enhancing their already good characteristics.

  Quite a good tire in size 17, you feel that it grips well during acceleration
