My tire review: Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus
Pros: Sticky tires both on dry and wet pavement
aggressive tire tread design
good wheel lip protection
light years better than the oem crap
Cons: The tread design allows rocks and such to get stuck inside
a wee bit noiser than the goodyears
expensive if you are on a budget
So I've had these for about a week and after doing the alignment as well, I'm really glad I bought these tires. Grip is quite amazing, especially last night driving in a rain storm. I don't think I've ever owned a tire that impressed me so much while driving on wet pavement. Going up an incline to merge with traffic I dropped pedal to the floor and I was shocked that the t/c did not start going crazy. It just kept going like I was driving on dry pavement. Simply amazing!
The only issue I have is they are a little noisier than my previous tires. They are still tolerable, but going from a 50 to 45 series tire I was expecting it. Now I just hope they last the 45k miles they are warrantied for lol.
