They had better grip in the rain than the full-depth R888s that I ran last year, and those are already known to be a pretty solid rain tire.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

23 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Need no rear tire set. I am running Michelin PS2. The cost for the rears is around 500.00 per tire. Size 285 40 18 I can get buy a new set of Michelin Super Sport and get front and reart ires for 1090.00. The only drawback is rear size would be 265 35 18 Has anyone tried this (Charlie) and can you provide feedback. Want to know what the difference would be. I also do DE events. 996 C2 Thank for the help.

POST 3Original post

Louis, you will never look back. They're quieter, more comfortable, and the rain grip is shockingly good. They had better grip in the rain than the full-depth R888s that I ran last year, and those are already known to be a pretty solid rain tire. I have 225s on the front and 265s on the rear and the only significant problem is how easy it is to curb your rear wheel on 10" MY02 wheels like ours, so do watch out for that. I've been thinking about you all the way out here! I'm scheming a bit to try to get back for a September event.

Here is a good video on where the PSS's sit in the lineup and some technical stuff. Michelin Pilot Super Sport Tyre Presentation - YouTube

POST 5Original post

I'm happy with the move to SS's for the same reasons as pontifex4. I opted for 295/30/18s to give me a little more top-end range for AutoX and to correct my speedo that's a little bit off with stock size.

POST 6Original post

I didn't think 295/30/18 was available yet from Michelin in the PSS

Agreed, I didn't see the 295's SS's on Tirerack it the Michelin site.

POST 9Original post

Just pt 18 inch pss as3 on my c2 at discount tire $917 out the door / 10% sales tax included in total /Costco quoted me about $950

POST 10Original post

This spring I got Pilot Super Sports (the summer tire, not the all season) in 225/40-18 and 265/35-18. Street driving only. So far they have been outstanding ... quiet, good ride, and great grip dry or wet.

POST 11Original post

Oh wait... sorry... 285/35/18. Car's been in storage for the last 6 months and forgot what I had.

2 tires for $648 vs 4 tires for $900? I would take the $900 deal.

POST 14Original post

Quotes source post: 11384374

I believe we are talking about a set of rear tires, not a compete set. The Michelin rear are about $150 more and mine are 19" not 18". Just saying that Discount Tire prices are hard to beat

POST 15Original post

Dunno....Super Sports are 295/ea for a rear tire 18/285/35's. No doubt 19's are more but I think the better tire is the PSS and the price is good. I'm thinking WYO bought a entire set for 917.

Looked to me like wyo bought the Pilot Sport A/S 3, which is not the same tire as the Pilot Super Sport. In the sizes for my car (NB 996.1, 225/40-18 and 265/35-18), the Tire Rack price on the A/S 3 is about $130 less than the PSS.

The AS stands for all seasons right? So probably ok for all year round including light snow.
