    ****REVIEW: Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus*****

    Brand: Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus
    Size: 225/50ZR17
    Price: $185 each
    Purchased From: Tirerack.com


    Installation: Had dealership install them.
    Installation Time:1 hour
    Any Installation Tips You Have: If you keep your front psi pressure at 35 and your rear psi at 32, the rides is very smooth.

    I installed these in August of 2011. and I couldn't be happier. I'm going to have to replace them in about two months. I drive about 2400 miles a month for my job and let me tell you the cornering of these tires is amazing. Off-the-start traction is amazing. It laughs at water and snow, hydroplaning is not existent, unless its a full fledged puddle. The noise is minimal after the break-in period. Coupled with the R1Concepts the car stops on a freaking dime. Going around turns on I-84 onto exits going at 55 mph is cake for these tires.

    I HIGHLY recommend these tires for anyone that wants a high performance low-profile all season set of tires.

        they were fine on my Mercedes they weren't that noisy at all even with most of the tread gone, I didn't run them in snow or rain at all really though and only had them on for like 2-3k miles so I am not the best judge on them but they handled my back country roads at pretty good speeds. I didn't get a new set of them since it was around 1,033 shipped for the set of them.
