I live in Hawaii so the roads are in pretty good condition and I don't have to worry about ice and snow. I replaced the Goodyear Eagle GT (OEM's) on my car with the Michelin Pilot Sport AS4's about 3 months ago. What a difference in handling, road noise and comfort of the ride ! The tires feel "sticky" to the road with great handling in corners and on the twisty roads up into the mountains. I haven't noticed a significant difference between dry and wet grip, as the tires provide a consistent sense of confidence regardless of the weather conditions. I have noticed some mild road noise, but nothing as compared to the old Goodyear tires. I will leave an updated review in regards to tire wear, but so far I would say highly recommend!

my 2016 mustang gt came with Pirelli pzero nero tires. i'm the one guy on the mustang forums that likes these tires, however during the post-pandemic supply chain issues i could not find them. so i bought the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 because they were the only "good" tire i could find. i found the pirelli and the michelin equal in everything except: dry road michelin are better, wear michelin are lasting me longer. i did get 0.4mpg more on the pirelli.
im in south texas so weather is hot. i have a 1 hour commute to work (24mi highway, 20mi city). road are generally good. im likely to get the michelin again as they have already lasted me 40% more than the pirelli and are still good.

Probably one of the best tires you can buy if you need some amount of snow and cold weather ability but still want excellent sporty performance. The dry/wet performance is about 80% of what you'd get with a summer tire, but you can run it in the shoulder seasons or in light winter weather. My main complaints are that the steering response isn't as good as the previous AS3+. The right quality is pretty average for an all season tire, but its OK. All around great options.

These tires have proven to be one of the best things I ever put on my car. I've had this Mazda 3 for many years and have kept its mechanical condition as close to perfect as possible, but the tire type has changed routinely depending on where I live and how I was doing financially - from cheap tires, to standard touring tires, studless snow tires, and these Pilot All Season tires. They are not the most comfortable tires nor the quietest, I'll say that - you'll get better and FAR quieter ride quality out of many other types of tire, but they also aren't inherently uncomfortable. The biggest annoyance factor you may take into consideration is the large amount of road noise.

The handling with these tires, however, is something I can only describe as magical - this may seem quite specific, but the initial turn-in when going around a curve, especially at speed, is considerably more responsive and provides you greater confidence than any other tire I've personally experienced. This also includes Pirelli's direct competitor, the P-Zero All Season. You feel absolutely everything in the road and have no trouble whatsoever determining your car's limits in more aggressive driving. Even in wet driving, that confidence largely remains intact - something I very much did not expect in a performance all season tire despite the 'all season' moniker.

Temperature plays a huge role however - when the outside air gets colder, the tires do not grip as well. Winter time here never fully reaches below freezing temperatures, but even so the tires would begin to noticeably feel less capable in low temps. These tires love heat and if your journeys are typically shorter, slower, or in colder climates, you may not be able to heat the tires properly to experience them as they should be felt. It can even reach the point of danger as I found out, as a project car I'm working on has some cheap budget tires on it and can come to a stop very quickly even in cold temperatures as the cheap all seasons on it do not require as much heat to effectively grip - meanwhile, the Pilots almost sent me into a car that decided to suddenly cross multiple lanes of traffic at slow speeds on a 50mph road when they could not grip during cold, dry weather braking.

The tires have also noticeably worn after around 10,000 miles. This hasn't affected their driving feel, but their specifications listing around a 40k+ mile tread life are flat out not true. I expect these to wear out and need replacement within another 10,000 miles or so, and the Pilots are quite pricey compared even to other similar tire types from competing brands. These tires should be seen as a treat for you as a driver and for your car - something that you will greatly enjoy, but not something you should expect to last a long time or be kind to your wallet.

I run my car in Vancouver, BC, CA. Typically winter involves a lot of rain, but snow will be a thing to deal with at least a few times a year. It is hilly (very much mountain adjacent), and when snow comes it tends to be very "greasy", and will not be cleared by the city. These tires are enough (when combined with a soft touch on the gas) to negotiate the snow we get here. They are even enough to give a strong sense of superiority to all the boobs who try to use summer tires, and lesser all seasons. They are EXCELLENT in the wet, which we really get much more of. Intellectually, I know I can get more in the summer out of a dedicated UHP, but in normal driving that is a point you won't likely reach on any regular basis.

Easily my favorite tires I've ever owned. Living in the southern US, I use these as my daily driving and winter tires. It gets cold enough that I can't use track or summer tires year around, but doesn't snow enough to justify winter tires. I have a fair amount of experience with track tires, and on the street, the AS4 really isn't that far behind them. They wouldn't hold up to the same abuse, but that isn't their purpose. Since these are so good, I view the PS4S as being in the no-mans land for tires. One of the super 200 tw tires for summer and the AS4 for longer trips and winter is the magic combination for me.

Michelin "Total Performance" is right. This tire compliments the VW e-Golf perfectly. Using the 205/55R16 size with stock wheels, it strangely drives so neutral now that you could mistake it for a rear-wheel drive car. I've had a number of Miatas to compare it to. The control it gives at the limit in both a straight line and in the bends is absolutely confidence inspiring. In terms of mileage loss, it's negligible - somewhere between 2-5% range overall in my tests of frequent trips. I'm not surprised because Michelin lists it as low-rolling resistance tire for EVs. Any trade-offs over a purely eco-focused standard touring tire are overwhelming positive. If you can't tell, I'm thrilled with this tire. Does there exist anything better for its use case? Well, if this goes on a new Corvette from the factory, maybe you should consider it. Happy e-motoring!

Tires look great. Have only had tires a week. Notice little road noise I didn't expect. Like a roaring wine. The ride is also is also not as comfort as I expected. But all in all tire is worth buying again.

I have only had them for about 1000 miles but I replaced my old Toyo Proxes 4 all seasons with these and they have dramatically changed the handling of my 2015 Lexus GS 350 awd. Amazing tires so far in the dry and wet (no chance for snow or ice yet) and I am sure I have bored many people talking about my new tires. They are awesome.

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 tires. Running these on a 2012 Audi S4, all wheel drive car. It's my daily driver / road trip car. Climate is middle of USA. Snow only 5-10 times a year here, usually light snow. Truly 4 seasons. Driven about 20k miles on these tires since 2021. Driving style spirited. The wet handling is really why I love these tires. They are just excellent for a commuter or road trip car when the rain is coming down hard. Snow is fine and suitable to get around a light snow day, but you'll slip around a bit (which I'm fine with) Dry handling is on point for what I need. Very good, but not amazing. Only time they slip is under really hard corning when I'm asking for it. They're expensive, that's a draw back for sure. However, I've been happy with the tire wear so far. Just be sure to do regular rotations. I would definitely buy these again.

This is only an initial observation !!!! i am comparing the pilot sport as 4 to my old tires, pilot sport as 3 worn down almost to the tread indicator. so having driven only 10 miles on the highway on the new tires: they definitely have great feedback and feel planted to the road. However, they feel jittery and transmit road imperfections noise-wise. on a flat, "no imperfections" road surfaces they feel smooth as ice skating. unfortunately, very few roads have no imperfections. i am an easy going driver so i probably will not approach the performance envelope of these tires, except for avoiding dangerous situations....which is where braking and steering matter, hence for safety.

Dangerous and excessive wear. Go read other 1 star reviews and you'll see that very accelerated wear is common, especially with Pilot Sport A/S tires installed over the past 6 months. (Maybe a production problem or a Costco problem.) Loved the tires when I first got them in October 2021 and I did a lot of driving on winding mountain roads. 3,000 miles later and the tires are completely bald on the rear -- and this is being blamed on my alignment. So, I went to have my alignment checked and no adjustments were needed, so it's not the alignment. Based on several reviews I've found online, tires purchased at Costco tend to have wear problems. Oh, and I only realized they were bald because it was the first snow of the season and the backend of my car lost grip. After looking at the tires, I found both were bald and one is so worn that the wires are sticking out of the tire. Unbelievable that a tire could last 3,000 miles even if I was driving my car sideways or backwards.

Good outright grip and reasonably quiet for a tire in this class. Feels a bit mushy in the turn in and lateral handling compared to the previous version AS3+ which had more direct feel. Has a bit better ride than the AS3+ did, but in my opinion its not better enough to justify the decrease in steering feel and cornering grip. To be honest, I prefer the previous version and its "on rails" feel vs this new version that has more of a typical comfort oriented mix. I have a 2017 VW Golf GTI SE.

Started with Pirellis. Hard harsh ride. Bumps jarring. Not responsive handling Continentals, next greatly improved ride, soaking up bumps still disappointing steering, handling cornering PSAS4 finally got the ride and handling I expected from my 2003 330xi! Car rides firm not jarring hard and now feels more confident certain cornering

Dry grip is exceptional for an all season tire, while wet grip still exceeds my expectations. Hydroplaning has been virtually nonexistent since this tire has been fitted. Even more surprising are the wear characteristics. I've done a few days of light tracking on these tires and it still looks as if I could get another 20,000 miles out of them. While I have not yet experienced their capabilities in the winter, given their superior performance across the board when compared against the tires I had previously, I maintain a high level of confidence.
