My commute involves country lanes, dual carriageway and city driving and these tires perform great in all circumstances. Dry weather grip is good and car handles well and the wet weather grip is fantastic. These are being used in place of Bridgestone tires and they appear to be far more durable lasting almost twice as long. Overall defiantly worth paying the premium price for a quality brand.

Comfy ride, keeps the car where I want and never let me down. Had to drive in snow this morning. They weren't the best, but got me moving. I will however be buying something more suited to snow now!!

Very pleased with these tyres especially on a 400bhp car they let the car put the power down really well and make it handle the way it's supposed to in my opinion it's a big thumbs up 👍

The price is considerably lower than what is offered by tyre dealers. The tyre is good, very good grip, low rolling noise, seems to have good durability. I recommend it.

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

As for me, Michelin Pilot Sport 3 is a perfect tyre. The only drawback is that they wear a bit faster than the other tyre models. Unfortunately, you can't have everything. Yet, I would still choose Michelin Pilot Sport 3 as my next purchase.

The Michelin Pilot Sport 3 is better than the PS2 in many ways. First of all, behaviour on wet is better than the one of any other summer tyre in that size. The tyre is extremely resistant to aquaplanning, allowing for much safer and more enthusiastic driving in the rain. Behaviour on dry leaves nothing to complain about. The braking distance may be a little shorter than the other tyres, but the grip and stability in the corners at high speed (over 150 MPH on the motorways) are at the highest level. The tyre wears faster, but it's the soft compound that provides the parameters. Tire worth the money. I recommend Michelin Pilot Sport 3 to those drivers who like driving fast and powerful cars.
