Know Your Mods Ep3 : Tires - Michelin Pilot Super Sports

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 มี.ค. 2016
- Today on Know Your Mods, Tires. Mike breaks down the key benefits of our most popular tire choice among our customers, the Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
All the performance and handling mods you add to your car simply mean nothing unless you can translate them into the road your driving on. Tires are by far the most important component of your vehicle as everything from acceleration, braking, and cornering ability relies on the small contact patch between the road and your tires.
Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires set themselves above the competition and utilize many unique design and tread features that are not found on other brands. They are made in a multi segmented mold which allows for more precise and intricate tread patterns. This lets the inside tread and outside tread have two different designs both optimized for different road conditions.
The inside portion of the tire features an extra grippy elastomer compound to provide high speed stability and wet road security. While the outside edge uses a high strength Carbon-Black reinforced elastomer providing sharp handling response and cornering force.
Quite literally the Michelin Pilot Super Sports offer two tires in one, optimized for the maximum amount of grip and performance in both wet and dry conditions. They are trusted by OEMs and high performance exotic car manufactures around the world for a reason, find out why for yourself and pick up a set for your own car.
All tire sizes listed on our site are in stock and ready for immediate shipment. We also provide complete wheel and tire packages for customers who are picking up new wheels as well.

On tires you get what you pay for and they are worth every penny
I use 305-30-20 there 500.00 per tire.
Never buy cheap tires. I've learned the hard way
Amit G1984 worth it though
Amazon bro you'll find them affordable I got 2 325 19 for $230
These are the best tyres I’ve ever had. I got 400hp at the rear wheels and can’t break traction in a straight line, the grip is incredible. I wanted to try a pair of expensive tyres as a treat and now I’m hooked. Phenomenal.
now u got my excited bruh
@@eeay3 They cost lots and wear much faster. Great for a Sunday driver.. not worth it for a daily. Unless you’re cashed pretty hard.
@@ragereset2795 Its for my stage 2 m235i, heard it's pretty much the go-to for that car. Got them on today and it was a great addition. I do daily it, but I don't mind replacing the tires as I am able to do the work myself at home.
I took my Supra to Sebring over a weekend HPDE event and came away very impressed. 12k of daily driving and once they got hot, they were super sticky, and held on for lap after lap. Very legit track and daily performance.
I have PSS tires, let's just say I thought I was going to die when driving in the snow. But a new opportunity showed and I had fun getting sideways in the snow.
PyroPD
Your a moron !
Came stock on the GT350 in 2016 and the tires are amazing!
Provided the temperature is above 40 degrees f!
Great vid. I've had these on my RX-8 and they are awesome tires. Amazing grip, long tread life and comfortable/quiet to boot. I used them on the street and track (about 10 days). I will likely have a set going onto my Cayman S as soon as it needs new shoes.
Couldn't agree more. The only tire I'll run on my BMW M3. Thanks for the great review
Next time your due for tires, dont forget to check out the newly updated PS4S

I know lol... I took a glance at them, and then literally read more all about them the next morning after my PSSs were purchased. I don't regret it however. I'm still happy with my purchase. :D
StereoSoundAgent
I really agree I use them on my E46 M3 and my F10 M5.
ModBargains
I looked at them there more an all season then a max summer tire.
I called Michelin and spoke with there Engineer, as I’m looking for the best traction for my F10 M5 there engineer said the PSS is still the best tire for my car.
The best handling car I've ever owned, was on Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
I love these tires, excellent for daily street driving, and they greatly improved my quarter mile time on my modded E90 335i.
Thats great to hear, the Pilot SuperSports really are a track ready tire that you can still enjoy every day.
My Corvette has the Michelin Pilot Super Sports and they are ZP (Run Flats). Yes they do make them but only in limited sizes. The only difference between the two is the thicker sidewalls, but the tread pattern and rubber compound is the same.
HitsTownUSA Corvette uses a bespoke tread compound for their OEM tires. Although they appear the same, they are unique.
HitsTownUSA
Yes on the 2014 C6 corvettes came with ZERO PRESSURE (ZP) it was introduced but did not last the performance suffered in heavy cornering and high speed cornering it was Chevrolets idea to boost sales as they declined due to there over heating issues that took them a couple of years to fix because they refused to acknowledge it but finally did .
Just got new Super Sports for my 135i. I bought them used previously and it was a nightmare. My car couldn't maintain its power and would break loose whenever I got on it. This time, I bought them new and they have updated the tread pattern and compound. It completely transformed my car. I'm thrilled.
Garrett Johnsen I also ran them on my 135i . They are decent until pushing 400+
Bought these for my WRX and was pretty shocked at the difference from my stock dunlops. would recommend
im in the same boat as you ... my 14 sti hatch has got the sp 600s , and I've been told by stucky tyres the pss are the best for dry ,wet and noise reduction ... have you got any more input about the tyres 4 month in ? thanks ..
still loving them 4 months in.. it seemed like they were wearing fast early on but have since held strong with treadwear.
I def enjoy them over the star spec 2's I had on the wrx, and I thought those were pretty good! The hankook rs3's honestly were a letdown even on dry pavement as diff psi settings on the wrx.
just bought these tires with a set on Enkei Fujin rims for my 15 Wrx. cant wait till winter is over to break them in. i heard nothing but good things
Thanks. I bet my STI will like them
Subbed!! Nice video. Solid production.
Thanks for the add!
Oh shit its spencer hey man im a big fan keep up the good work
ModBargains is the Michelin pilot sport 4 tyre more advanced than this tyre?
Just ordered a set for my '04 R32, can't wait!
awesome vid...keep doing these style of vids!
That song is a slowed down version of Flite by Cinematic Orchestra.
Love these on my 370z! Don't want to over compliment them (because then others will buy!!), but I'll never go to another tire as long as they keep up this kind of quality.
i use them on my 2012 mustang gt modded! Best tire ever!
It's my 2nd set of PSS on my WRX. No regrets.
What year wrx have you got ??? I'm just wondering if they look good on a 14 hatch .. thanks .
@@christianguidarelli9194 Look good? Who cares if they 'look good'?
Purchased my 3rd set! Love them
These tires truly are amazing on my boosted VW R32. They do everything perfectly.
Great video, thanks for sharing! Also, new subscriber! 😎
Just ordered a set today. 255/35/20 front and 295/30/20 rear!
Easily the best car "modification" I've ever done
Good technical sharing. Would be great if there's a review among csc6 vs ps4 vs f1a3!
Pilot Sport Cup 2 review or I'm sending protesters to your shop!!! Would love to know what you think of those, and would they work for 6 months our of the year (march - oct) as a daily driver? How much more grip compared to a P.S.S.? Are they worth the extra $1k in cost?
I own this tire since 2 years and it's the best tire i've ever had since now. I had the Pilot Sport before but the Pilot Super Sport is better... for my car at least.
Favorite tire. The best of everything.
PSS and AD08R are the best performance tires for daily drive,
Just fitted a set to my E60 M5
great video great info and a great tire !! Thanks much..C...cool
Any experience yet with the new Michelin PS4s? Thanks!
Hi ,, i just want to know if this tire is popular with the 08 to 14 wrx sit hatch ? thanks ....
well presented ....keep it up...
Thanks for the support!
Good video 👌🏽
I have them on my BMW X6M, incredible….
Ya know my stock run flats have actually saved me once. But man I want these tires. I’ll get them when my stocks finally wear.
When the time comes, go with the PS4S, they are the upgrade you can watch the changes here: th-cam.com/video/Y0gUWOY36z8/w-d-xo.html
what happened?
@@1semiauto ran over a bunch of nails and screws a jerk truck dropped in front of me as I was driving. Must’ve been 6-7 that punctured all 4 tires. The rigid sidewalls honestly helped me drive 99% normally all the way to an auto shop where I spent several hours patching them up lol. Finally replaced them just about a month ago.
Getting these for my c63 tomorrow
I guess the future is here ..guess what I have them on my bmw m2 comp as a run flat
Do review on Michellin Pilot Sport 3 ! :)
On 2006 Pontiac gto
Hey Mike, how do you compare this PSS with the latest PS4S? Have you tried them first hand? If so, I'd like to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
And btw, love your videos - so detailed and thorough :) #happysubscriber
Hi. Thanks for a great video. How would you compare the Michelin Pilot Super Sport versus the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 and especially the Pilot Sport 4 S? We only currently get the Pilot Sport 4, not the 4 S yet, and the Pilot Super Sport here in Greece. I have a VW Golf GTI and I like enthusiastic driving. I need new tires and I'm thinking of just getting the Pilot Super Sports again. I'm hearing the Pilot Sport 4 is not as performance oriented as the PSS, but that the 4 S is which, again, we don't get here yet. Thanks for any thoughts or advice. Cheers from John in Greece. ps it does rain quite a bit here in the winter.
The short version of the story is this. The Pilot Sport 4 is designed more as an OEM sporty tire, where as the PS4S is a full sucessor to the Super Sport with a greater emphases on grip and traction vs rolling resistance and emissions. For more detail, check out our video we did with a Michelin Tire engineer where he talks about this vary point.

Great for a Hyundai Genesis sedan
Hi - what is the recommended rotation schedule for the PSS?
I'm gonna try it on my 2014 Honda Civic Si.
Thomas Boyd lol
Thomas Boyd
Why ?
Did you ever get them? lol im looking to replace ironmans i got from the dealership on my 2015 si
Should I do super sports or a/s 3 + for my FRS?
I just ordered 2 285 40 19s off of eBay 80% life no repairs for under $200
If the Super Sport is good enough for a Ferrari than its definitely worth investing in.
Tyres are the only thing keeping you on the ground so it makes sense not to go cheap on them!
Gotta agree one of the ulimate mods to your vehicle is the tires.
Please don't get me wrong, I am very seriously considering these tires as replacements for what I have now (which are run flats), and I am positive that the performance would be epic. I cannot justify, however, buying such an expensive tire and not getting the benefit of a run flat, as my car does not have any sort of spare tire option, nor does it have a 12 volt compressor and tire sealant. If I get a flat, I am stuck until I get towed to a tire shop that can fix (if possible) or replace the tire which could take a week or more. How much would a flat cost me on this tire in money and time? Would the repair affect high speed reliability? For me this is a huge point to consider, knowing that most flats, although rare, are caused by small diameter objects that a run flat can handle.
I struggle to find the best possible 19-20 inch Summer tyres for my BMW 535i xDrive 2012. What I am absolutely sure is though, I do not want any RFT!
There are 3 tyres in which I am interested (All w/o RFT) : PSS (*), PS4s (w/o *), Conti SC6 (w/o *)
The only "Star-Tyre" without RFT is the Michelin Pilot Super sport.
Do you recommend buying older-generation tyres WITH * or newer Generation WITHOUT * ???
Thank you
Any issue with running super sports on the back and pilot sports on the front?
just replaced my contisportcontact 5p with mpss and michelin wins in every department.
I have these on a 2021 c63s w205 and my back wheels definitely do a fair bit of spinning when I launch it. Is there anything that's a little bit stickier than this that won't wear out in less than 5k miles?
I'm buying tires for my arc 8 and is between the nt05 and the mpss.
+iconone5 NT05 and MPSS are two different category of tires. Both very good, but most important: What kind of driving do you do? Tire life?
+Charles Pages its a street car with some drag racing. 135i
+iconone5 how many miles do you need/want to get out of them? NT05 will be higher performance, but not last as long or work well in rain. MPSS have tread life warrranty, 15k on staggered setups and 30k for square.
Hi. I have the following situation: 285/30ZR19 PSS zp which is 314mm wide and doesn't fit the rim where the same size PS2 was fitting perfectly (9.5j). Is this normal?
well done on the video... i have a 2015 c7 z51 that i do take to the track (circuit) lone the current tires but thinking of going to the Michelin sport cup 2. your thoughts? louder ?
thanks
Did you go with the super sport and how did you like them, trying to make a decision
The grip sucks with my car. Squeals too much around corners and breaks traction. My Bridgestone potenzas that I had never squealed and had better grip.
How do you rate these against the Mich PS4S?
Check out our follow up video, th-cam.com/video/Y0gUWOY36z8/w-d-xo.html but the PS4S is the successor of the super sport. Overall better - incrementally better as discussed in the video.
I don't know if you answered this question but why is you pss tire is $100 more expensive than Costco.? Is there more than one type of pilot super sport tire?
aaguirre123 yes
I put them on my 2013 sti had 4 punchers and an outside side wall blow out the worst tire for reliability.
123valve
I can tell you are full of shit .
And never had these tires or your a moron in either case your a moron.
Because you made a set-up of the AWD subies like those STANCE crippled/unfunctional cars.and yes because you buy this tires in size 225/35/18 putting it in your heavy wide wheels 18x10 or even 18x11.any stretched tires (hellaflush) set-up will make tires suffer and get destroy.
Only problem is how hard they snap back when they let loose
What do you mean by this ?
I don't get it, the tread pattern doesn't look anything special???
Sir question ... my corvette has 335/25/zr20 back tires . I found 335/30/zr20 the half price !!! Is this a problem ? Why are they lot cheaper ? Im not a track driver by the way. Can you help me sir ?
The /30 sized tires will be a little bit taller and 'puffier' looking then the lower profile /25 sized ones. The end result would mean every time the /30 tire rolls, it will cover almost 5% more distance than the /25 sized tires. This can cause some confusion with speedometer readings which could get you pulled over for accidentally speeding for example, or cause error codes with a vehicles ABS systems, etc.
The reason the price is higher for those /25 sized ones is two fold. 1) The lower the profile of the tire, the more difficult the mold is to make and manufacture. 2) Fewer vehicles need tires in this size, so due to economies of scale they are also more expensive since fewer tires are sold in that size vs a more standard 18" variation.
ModBargains thanks a lot for your time and sharing your knowledge! I would love to try them out but now , I won’t . Thanks 🙏
What you think about me trying them on my 16 charger 245/45/20
Jamal Morris charger too slow
Job Done Right what you mean
What is a other tires comparable to this?
Hi Sharpe, well this tire has been replaced by the PS4S - th-cam.com/video/Y0gUWOY36z8/w-d-xo.html the other tire that competes in this category is the Continental Extreme Contact Sport, and if we threw all season into the mis - it would be the DWS 06 to consider : th-cam.com/video/Cz0w8Sw9dZM/w-d-xo.html
4,5,8 not 4,58
Tomato, Tomato, Potato, Potato...
@@markdorman426 really and how do you say it
go try some Pzero, and try these pss in rain
Kerem Bek pirellis suck for small low temps and rain and dont mention snow
pirelli's got a soft compound when you get them warmed up, that's how a tire should be
The top summer tire is the Michelin Pilot Sport 2, not that SS.
carreramike Incorrect. The PS2 is old tech.
you are incorrect. Learn the Michelin tire hierarchy. SS is the affordable PS2. PS2s still goes on as the factory installed for the top Ferraris and Porsches, MBs.
PS2 tech is over a decade old, sir.
Find me a vehicle produced TODAY, that is being equipped with PS2 tires.
2017 Ferrari 488 GTB - Pilot Super Sport
2017 Ferrari F12 - Pilot Super Sport
2017 Mercedes GT-S - Pilot Super Sport
2016 Mercedes C63S - Pilot Super Sport
Porsche press release for updating recommended Carrera GT tires to Pilot Super Sports: press.porsche.com/news/release.php?id=805
All of the currently produced PS2 tires are for older vehicles that came with manufacturer specific models of the PS2. Rather than re-certifying tires for cars no longer in production, it is easier to continue producing them and monetizing a decade old technology.
Better dry handling, dry braking, wet handling, wet braking, longer tread life on road & track, less road noise and improved road compliance. All those improvements were stated by MICHELIN DIRECTLY, at the 2013 Dubai press event.
Buy the best. Buy PSS.
My point to you is the PS2 is the TOP Mich summer performance tire (not counting the Cup for some track use), NOT the SS as the video mentioned. Im aware that PS2 is old, cause Ive had it on all my 911s. I use the SS now. SS is right below the PS2 on all around performance. Why do you think the PS2 cost more?
Because of lower production, duh.
Did you ever take macro economics?
I'm going to try these on Dodge Charger v6
Pointless on a v6 charger
Lmaoooo
tjlovesrachel I already have them lol
yes sir I'm just now seeing this
tires are discontinued now :(
Jason Mangal the sport 4 S has replaced it as an improved version of the pilot super sport. they are AMAZING. i just put them on 200 miles ago. best tire I have ever used. so sticky. great grip and handling, super quiet and comfortable.
Jason Mangal
NO THERE NOT.
There still in full production I bought a set for my M3 and in a few weeks I’ll buy them for my M5. The PSS are one of Michelin’s biggest selling tires.
so will this work on my US domestic market Japanese car???
or Only Japanese domestic market car!?!?!?
So confused
Pilot Super Sports (& now the PS4S) are the ideal tire for any high horsepower or high torque vehicle. They are by far the highest rated and best selling summer performance tire we offer. So whether it be a new 2017 Acura NSX (a US domestic Japanese car), or your modified 600hp 94 Toyota Supra (a Japanese Domestic Car). Michelin has you covered.
Dude... you didn’t say sh#t-all about the construction process of these... that was a shame ha... started so good. 😐
This is not overkill? Then, I will not be getting these tires.
For any vehicle pushing north of 300 hp to the wheels, the PSS's were king. They have now been replaced by the new PS4S tire starting with 19" and 20" sizes with 18" sizes being released now.
ModBargains Thanks for the pointer! I really want the best when it comes to tires. I don't care if my car needs it right now, I just want the headroom to work with.
