Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV vs Michelin Latitude Sport 3 — Compared

“From 3 model you mention, only Alenza is designed for heavy vehicle/SUV, so longevity is better than other 2 for your Envoy even though the traction may not be the best. If you can find Pilot Sport 4 SUV, then it may be the best to replace Latitude Sport 3. I like Latitude Sport 3, the best in wet weather and great in dry, but it is true it is only 25000 miles lifetime.”

Took them off the F Type immediately if not sooner. Quote: Originally Posted by RAudi Driver That's why they are called P-Zeros. If they were good Pirelli would have named them P-10's.

However, in my Cayman with PS4S in the same areas you can barely tell the road surface changed. The wear on both sets is about the same. 2016 Cayenne S e-Hybrid with 21" Latitude Sport 3 (295/35) 2014 Cayman with 20" Pilot Sport 4S (235-265/35) I am putting an OPC warranty on the Cayenne, so for me the LS3 is is best N rated tyre available...”

“Loving my new Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV tires and Enkei Raijin wheels”

“After 27,000 miles the Michelin Latitude Sport 3 (255/60R17 106V) tires on my Envoy are pretty worn. They are pretty decent tires, but it seems longevity is not one of its strong points; even with regular rotations (and road force balancing if required) every 6,000 miles and maintaining the correct pressures. I was actually considering another set, but it seems COVID is an excuse for incompetence among other things these days and they are not available in this size. I was told in October that the shipment would arrive in January, but now I'm being told it will arrive in April. At this point, these tires are in dire need of replacement for safety reason and there is absolutely no way I can wait another three months. I've been looking at my options; namely Toyo Proxes T1 Sport , Dunlop SP Sport Maxx 050+ and the Bridgestone Alenza 001 that I'm heavily leaning towards. Wondering if anyone on here has any experience with them.”

“Are Michelin Latitude Sport 3 235/50R19 MO tires good on a GLB? I'm thinking of making the switch from Continental ProContact GX SSR 235/50ZR19 MOE tires that came on my 2022 GLB 35. The Continentals have somewhat sloppy handling, are too harsh over bumps and bounce too much for me over uneven pavement, particularly on the highway. Since the Michelins are summer tires and weigh about 2.5 pounds apiece less than the Continentals, I'm hoping the ride, responsiveness and handling will be better, plus I'm not concerned with Michelin's lower rated tread life. Going to 20" wheels aren't an option.”

“"Install four Michelin Latitude Sport 3 RFT replacing Bridgestone Alenza RFT at 36,300 miles." Calendar entry above. For us, it made all the difference in the world. Retired, so most of our travels are on I-77, I-26 and I-95. Couldn't hear each other talk with the Alenzas. Approaching 50,000 miles now and couldn't be happier. Made an incredible difference in ride comfort and noise. Not sure how many more miles are left on the tires , but they appear to be almost like new. My X3 M40i doesn't have a spare and I'm not comfortable going to a non- RFT since I'm 74 years old and haven't changed a tire in 30 years. Can't understand why Bridgestone continues to sell the Alenza tires or why BMW continues to put them on their performance cars.”
