Continental ExtremeContact DWS vs Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 — Compared

“Im running pilot sport a/s4 in 265/35 r18 on 18x9.5 konig ampliform. I have been driving them about 5 months, i cant complain. They are good for where im at (only 93 octane stage 1 tune, no major mods). Side note, i feel the road imperfections alot more with such a small sidewall.”

“I just replaced my Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 that I had on my Impreza with the Michelin CC2s. I got 30k out of the PSAS4 tires, and neither the tire shop nor Michelin would honor the 45k warranty, even with regular rotations and even wear. I was not impressed with them in the snow, and I've had about 30 winters of driving with different all seasons. The CC2, on the other hand, were incredible. Such a good tire in my first winter that I bought a set for my daughter's Forester. A little noisier than the PSAS4s, but I'll take superior handling on ice/snow over the quieter tire.”

“Replaced tires with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4, ride significantly improved My 2021 MYLR with 19" Gemini wheels ran over a screw in the tire sidewall and I had to replace the tire. I decided to replace all four tires since the tread was low anyway. I ended up replacing with the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4. I was happy to find that the ride quality significantly improved after this. Just wanted to let folks know. Others have pointed out that there's a slight range efficiency hit and the tires don't reach all the way to the Gemini rims like the stock Continentals do. I find I don't care about these things and enjoy the ride quality improvement a lot. If I put the car in Chill mode now and drive others around, it's a much better ride experience for them on residential streets. The tires were a bit expensive, $1700 to replace all four including labor (in the SF Bay, a HCOL area) but I had to replace the tires anyway and the benefits were worth it to me.”
