We tried to make a 5 minute video to explain the differences between the new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S, and it's older brother the Michelin Pilot Super Sport. Sadly we failed, and this video is 9 minutes. If you're not a tyre geek, but are curious about the differences between the two tyres, feel free to skip to the conclusion at 6:10 as that covers most of it.

Very well put together, I am currently running the pss on my a4 Quattro it's streets ahead of the conti sc3 my car came with from Audi, given how good the pss is I will have my eye on the new ps4s for sure. So far the tread wear on the pss is outstanding they are so much better than Continentals.

Jon fantastic video and thank you for all your help with getting specific information from Michelin. I've being a long fan on the MPSS since fitting to my 911 where it offered more or less cup levels of grip in the dry but was also superb in the wet and on my 911 they lasted 2-3x longer than any other tyre I had tried previously on track and road. Just fitted the 4S today to the rear and though it is way to early to give performance data the first and immediate thing I noticed over the worn MPSS was NVH and road noise significantly reduced. A thumbs up and subscription from me! :)

But now that you produced a direct side by side comparison I am more informed and now know, with confidence, that the PS4S is the upgraded tire. Thank you very much! and thank you to the companies and manufactures that invite "Tyre Reviews" to review and quantify tires.

Great informative video. Well done. What really impressed me, is the honesty & objectivity. Look forward to more videos from you. And yes we would love to see video(s) comparing mpss/mp4s/mp Cup2/conti sport contact 6. It will be an instant hit, especially with people like myself who owns many Porsches with mpss & cup2 & P zero & MPA4 tires. It will be also great to see videos of tire reviews of same or comparable (ultra high performance) tires but at lower temperatures (e.g 33F to 49F) in both dry & wet conditions. Many owners of exotic or sport cars still drive their cars with these ultra high performance tires at these lower temperatures if they live in areas where it does not normally snow, but only very few of these tires perform reasonably OK under such conditions. Again geat job and please keep them coming. Mark

I had same combo on my A45. PSS daily and Cup2 for track. The Cup2 as a daily did not last (about 50% of the longevity, not surprising as they start off with less tread depth), The Cup2 were worth just over a second on track, but did aquaplane earlier on a wet track (but were still ok in wet with the awd assistance compared to the pussies in their Porsche’s)

Very good review. Great website too. Just fitted MPSS to my 335d F31 m sport (would've gone with the PS4S but am on 18" Wheels), replaced the awful S001 run flats, drives like a different car. Never will I have run flats again. Absolutely love the car now, has made a huge difference!! Hopefully Michelin will release a star marked PS4S for 18" wheels befroe my MPSS need replacing. It really is very important to get tyre selection right if you're even slightly enthusiastic about driving.

Great review, thanks. I've only recently (Oct 2016) bought a set of PSS ( to replace Bridgestone 050's) for my rather lowly Mondeo Titanium X Sport, but they are such an improvement. I've only used them for just over a month before switching to my winter wheels/tyres, so I think by the time I replace the PSS, the PS4 will have been superseded possibly?...but certainly looks promising for the future anyway.

thanks for your great review, my 2010 911 came with Sport Cups but they were discontinued for the base 18 inch size in the Sport Cup 2 so I needed to find a tire that would be a suitable replacement. I ended up with the 4S and like how the tires are quieter but have yet to test the grip. Living in LA our roads are crappy - with a lot of bumps and potholes in the roads, so going 19 inch was not a wise option if I wanted more comfort. I believe this is the best compromise since I never track the car. I have Super Sports on my M4 CS and love them but will use this review once I need a new set as well.

Great video on this subject, and one of the first ones which is very informative with lots of detail! I'm having the PSS on my GT86 and it's incredible. Shame for me is that manufacturers put more resources in larger sizes nowadays. 18" is already something of the past. Now 19-20" are the benchmark tires. One question to the car manufacturers: is this really necessary? For the next gen cars you have 18" for the Fiesta ST, 19" for the Mégane RS and now 20" on a Civic Type-R. For me 17" is correct size for a Fiesta and 18" is for a Focus RS, Mégane RS or Civic Type-R. For the car enthusiast 19-20" is not payable. Certainly if you do 5-10000 kilometers with a set of tires. Maybe an idea for a next video to discuss that matter. Keep on doing these video's. It's an asset on KZfaq!

Thank you for the kind words, really appreciated. We are in the process of planning a 17 vs 18 vs 19 inch test, so keep an eye on the channel :) We agree the PS4S should be in 18", and while it isn't yet, that's not to say it won't be in the future. The tyre manufacturers will react to the demand of the market, and there's so much interest in an 18" PS4S in Europe, lets see what happens in 2018 :) Fingers crossed!

Put on PSS last year on my Vectra OPC/VXR Caravan before the release of the PS4S. Was driving at 250km/h in Germany and the handling was great. I can't wait to wear them out to put on the PS4S and see the difference! And for a prettier look also of course :) Thanks for the review, I watch a lot of your video you're great! Big Up!

I have been fitting top level Michelin tyres (Super Sport etc) to my cars for years. I watched a documentary about Michelin a number of years ago, and they made a true believer of me. Thankyou for covering such an important topic related to car safety. Many people spend big $ buying a great high performance car, then put shi##y third rate tyres on their vehicle.....It is almost like driving around Without Brakes. Good luck with your new channel, I just subscribed, as getting unbiased information on this subject is near impossible.

It's an issue with the label demands and OE requirements. Nearly all OE manufacturers are calling for quieter more comfortable tyres, and the label rolling resistance grade requires a low rolling resistance. This means manufacturers are taking material and strength out of the sidewalls. As noted in the video, the PS4S is ever so slightly softer than the PSS. The next step in Michelin would be the PSCup2. Manufacturers who don't score as well on comfort can sometimes give you improved steering feel, such as the Yokohama V105

The PS4 already betters the PSS in a number of areas, so while there's quite a big jump in NVH and wet grip from the PSS to the PS4S, the difference between the PS4 and the PS4S will be much smaller. We're constantly talking with Micheli about an 18" PS4S. We're lobbying for one!

I've been running the PSS's for about a yr now and they are phenomenal, especially in the wet. I was also impressed by their wear quality.

If you are ever in the states, do yourself a favor and check out the Tail of the Dragon in east TN, you will thank me. It's a stretch of a U.S. hwy (129) with 318 curves in 11 miles, plus it has no interconnecting roads or private drives in that 11 mile stretch. Here's a small dose, about the last 2-3 miles of it actually, I'm chasing two sportbikes. This was pre-PSS's...think I had some crappy 595S's when I filmed this. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/f6yDdZZz0bavaYU.html

I run the 225/40 R18 88Y Michelin SS and have been really impressed with the all season grip and wear is superb for such a soft compound. I may be mistaken but the newer Michelin Sports PS3/4 and 4s don’t offer the lower load rating of 88Y which is standard equipment on some older cars (most cars are now 92Y XL) and therefore will stick with the SS. It’s all you need for everyday driving.

Russell G.S. Centre dead spot and steering speed improved have slightly improved! If you want the best steering feel and feedback from a Michelin tyre, it will be the Pilot Spot Cup 2 (or the original Pilot Sport, that was an epic tyre!)

Nice to see a balanced review on these at last. Been waiting for these to come out in 225/40/19 for the front of my E46 M3 but looks like its not gonna happen. Need to bite the bullet and get 235/40/19 instead as it has the lowest effect on the speedo compared to the cheaper ones closest to my size (negligible really as it's just under 1% as compared to up to 4% with the other sizes). Have already just fitted the standard PS4 (non "S") on the rear and they are phenomonal, really can't rate them highly enough. They replaced an old set of PS3's that lasted 14k over the past year which were a brilliant set of all year tyres as well. With the new PS4S on the front and my new bilsteins fitted all round the car will be like a go kart - cant wait!

sarcastixx74 thank you for the feedback :) for what it's worth I ran 235/35 R19 fronts on the TyreReviews E46 M3 without problem, just make sure you let your insurance company know as technically it is classed as a modification
@sarcastixx74
@sarcastixx74 7 жыл бұрын
***** Thanks for the reply. The 235/40/19's would give the lowest speedo error (under 1%) while the 235/35/19's would be just over 2%. I know it's marginal but I want to keep the same 40 profile as the 35 will probably increase road noise. It's only 18 quid per tyre extra for the size I want compared to the size you listed. If it was more than that though I probably would have settled for the 235/35s! As for insurance, they already have my modifications listed on the policy which includes my non factory alloys/tyres. Thanks for the reminder though, always best to disclose all mods to insurers ;)

I had Pilot Super Sport on my 2006 BMW E60 550i(394ps), I took the car to track day with NASA and Speed Venture quite a few times, it turns and hold up very well(This set of tyres sees 4 track days and a lot of highway driving, includes two round trips from California to Utah) Unlike the Pilot Sport 4s on my BMW E92 335i, , already started to get massive understeer and very little feed back from the front axel after only 3 laps, the first three laps feels acceptable, but just not feel as precise and the level of grip the Pilot Super Sport has.

Great work you guys are doing with tyre reviews. Since PSS and PS4S don't come in 17, I can either stick to the classic PS2 N3 or try the PS4 for my 993. Tyres are getting softer these days, I'm not so sure that the 8 time test winner PS4 will give the same driving fun and feeling as the old PS2N3..

I replaced the Bridgestone Potenza S007s that were the OEM tire on my Nissan 370Z sport coupe 6M with a set of these PS4Ss and I noticed that the steering feels vaguer and less precise than the with the Potenzas. It seems to me as if the sidewalls of the Michelins are less stiff and are geared towards higher levels of comfort and less noise. Do you get a similar impression with these tires in comparison to other Max Performance tires?

In every way except for handling in canyon driving. If Michellin could improve that- well that could be the ultimate tire! Again- very nice review
