I have them on my AMG GT 53 and they are glued to the road - outstanding tires. Reasonably durable too
They are awesome, pretty much the best thing you can run that isn't a track tire, and you'll be amazed at their wet handling.
I've had experience with both the pilot super sports and now the pilot 4s on my 21 c63s that I drive 3-4 days out the week all year around and I live in the transitionzone of the US. The super sports are much stickier esp in the summer when the roads are hotter you can actually hear the tires picking up rocks and pebbles and they chirp when you put your foot down; however in the rain they spin and if its too cold they hop and skip esp when turning kind of like a bad loose lower ball joint. The pilot 4s are not as sticky or grippy as the SS’s but all around wet/cold/hot they are a great tire if your going to driving in all four seasons. I've noticed with the 4s even in the summer my car fish tails from a stop trying get traction even in the summer months they're spinning instead of gripping like SS. I hope this adds some context. I will be going back to the SS’s though and I won't be driving it in the rain like I used to as I have other vehicles for that
I run that exact tyre on my Merc E63 AMGs and like most people have said, easily the best performance tyres out there.
Awesome!
Like driving on a lake at day break.
Seriously.
After i bought my E53 i went back in a month later and replaced my Conti with the Michelin.
i love the 4s, they perform really good in anything. Good Braking, very good dry and wet traction.
great, they haven’t exploded in me at high speeds yet ????
Best tire in my opinion for daily driving before going to a 200 thread wear tire.
Very good in the rain, noise is as expected but not super loud, and very grippy when they’re hot. They stiffen up in cold weather.
The Michelins have a somewhat well-known delamination problem. I got them too from Costco on a Michelin month, and they are definitely a marked improvement over the stock tires in all regards. They're grippier in the dry and wet and quieter.
15,000 KM after three blowouts. Changed them for some Toyo proxes tm1 225/45R18. So far so good, the ride feels way smoother and I don’t feel like I lost fuel economy.
