Pros/cons of most popular tires

XwChriswX

I currently have Michelin Pilot Super Sports with about 7k miles on them.

(255/25/19, 295/30/19)

1. Wet/Dry Traction:

Dry - EXCELLENT. These will not break under any conditions I've been able to put them under so far. Let's just say on a highway onramp curve at 3 digit speed, you will not move, even when it's bumpy. No track experience yet.

Wet - On damp, or light wetness they are fine. However, under Heavy rain condition, I would advise no driving at speed. Even though claimed to have a high hydroplaning resistance, I found this to not be true and in fact, hydroplaned.

2. Cornering

Superb. Never felt any buckle in the sidewalls through aggressive driving, or cornering.

3. Treadlife

So far only have 7k on them, but they seem to be holding up very well, again with no track days yet.

4. Noise

Quieter than stock, (as if there were any that weren't... )

5. Final comments

Due to moving from a desert to a place where it can rain heavily whenever it wants, I will be moving from the PSS' to the Michelin 970AS (all seasons) and possibly keeping the PSS's for just track days. Unless I were to find a buyer who wanted them now.
