Always bought Michelin for all our cars at home, pilot sport 4, pilot sport 5 and pilot sport EV. Ps5 was so noisy on current car I thought wheel bearing was failing. Tyres last well and grip level is satisfactory

Tyres provide almost as much grip and control as the OEM fitment PZeros, but ride is better and mileage at least twice as good. Chose the Pilot Sport 5 over the 4 S due to better wet grip, which is ultimately more relevant to road driving, and also last longer.

I bought these tyres to replace the Pirelli PZeros that came as standard on my Hyundai Kona N. I had completely destroyed the Pirelli tyres at a track day at Thruxton Race Circuit. The improvement in grip and handling the Michelin Pilot Sport 5s bring to the car is a night and day improvement over the stock Pirelli tyres. They don't spin up in the wet, they turn in sharper and they have so much more lateral grip, in all conditions. They seem to be wearing really well too. I genuinely think they'd survive a track day, whereas the old tyres just shredded themselves and we're a spin fest (fun, but not fast!) if you're thinking of trying Michelin PS5 Tyres, just do it.
