Michelin Pilot super sport? anyone tested them?

[Ian_csl]

I have had my super sports on for about a month now, used the car slot the last few days and have to say they are excellent, better than PS 2's.

[outnumbered]

I'm booked in for a set of 4xPSS on Friday, so I can give some first impressions.

OK, they're fitted. So far the verdict is :thumbs: . They seem noticeably grippier and also quieter than the half-worn PS2s they replaced.

Anybody tried these on track yet or the Ring? I had a set put on yesterday and i am thinking should i leave second set with cups at home and just use PSS as i cant be arsed with that extra stuff for a long journey or take cups anyway as ive got a 2 dayer there next week.

Any advise from the ring vets..:smokin:

It depends what you want from your trip? And how well you know your car?

Have you been before? The PSS would be ok to go and learn the track IMO, the tyres supposedly lower limits will mean that you are travelling that little bit slower,when you go round that corner expecting it to turn right when it turns left......

Or if you are a nutcase just put the cups on and leave them on as the weather is looking fantastic for this week ahead at the ring:smokin::smokin:




I'll see you at the pk then

I couldn't believe my eyes earlier watching the BTCC, the baby Ginetta's were running Michelin PSS, they looked fantastic on them, instantly recognisable! :thumbs:

Only done about 50miles in them dan but they heat up 10 times more than my GY F1's.

Cheers Jim

First trip to Ring i would put cups on but dont think there is enough rubber on them to get me back but they are going anyway i cant be without ive come to my senses although i will be giving the PSS a burn aswell to see how they go.

You going then what is PK?

Any thoughts on how Super Sports seems to last on normal road use comparing with PS2's? Thanks!

Depends on driving style but I suspect they will be in between the PS2 and
the Cup on normal roads.

If you tend to do lots of miles then stick with PS2's for daily and use spare rims with cups for track. Mine isn't used for track or as a daily driver (other than trips to the ring) so the Supersports will be going on :thumbs:

Or if you are a nutcase just put the cups on and leave them on

Correct answer !:hahaha:
