Michelin Pilot Sport 3 are definitely worth the money spent for them. The highest class, as Michelin should be. Driving on dry is as on any other tyres. But what happens on wet is something great. The car is like on tracks, the grip is awesome. You feel that you are fully in control of the car and it goes where you want it to go. And I think it's the most important thing, to feel safe. Michelin Pilot Sport 3 are my yet another tyres from the same brand and I wasn't let down yet another time. I highly recommend Micheline Pilot Sport 3 to everyone!

previously rode Yokohama ADVAN Sport V103 - were good but I was not entirely happy with them. 4x4 car and I had the feeling that sometimes have side slippage on faster corners. PILOT SPORT 3 basically do not improve the situation, sometimes appear to be slightly better and sometimes worse. Yokohama certainly have a low attrition, we'll see how Michelin.

Have nearly 10,000km up on the Michelin PILOT SPORT 3 tyres. Overall they are very good, only slight criticism I would have is that when taking off from a stand still in the wet they can spin up easier than expected. But braking and corning in the wet is fine, no issues there. Wear is ok compared to other tyres we have had on the car. They are now at 5mm

I use a pair of these tyres on the front axle of my remapped 335d and they have been excellent. As it is not essential for me to have branded tyres, they turn out no to be expensive considering the mileage they made. I do sometimes some cornering at quite a speed, and they've always shown excellent grip and have worn evenly. Due to the mileage I do I had to do suspension maintenance a few times and wheel alignment for better handling and even tyre wear. I would recommend everyone to have this done every other year or ideally annually.

The tyre disperses water very well and achieves good wet grip.

Before I bought Michelin Pilot Sport 3, I had Bridgestone Turanza, which I had to throw out after two seasons (ca. 16 thousand miles). As for now, my Michelin Pilot Sport 3 have done ca. 4500 miles and their wear is almost unnoticeable. I can defnitely recommend - Michelin Pilot Sport 3 is worth the money spent for it.
