Positive
Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4

“Replaced my Bridgestone Driveguard+ runflats with Michelin PSAS4 because I could get them price matched out the door at Discount Tire cheaper than a set of DWS06+, my usual UHP tire. I might have just gotten a bad batch but mann, those tires were rough. I drove them for two weeks and had them rebalanced twice. The best they could road-force balance them to was 14-16lbs. They were noisy and rough at highway speeds. Tire shop swapped them out with the Continentals and my G30 feels like a german car again. All the tires easily road-force balanced under 10lbs. I was expecting a better ride considering Michelin’s reputation and reviews but they felt worse than my worn run-flats.”

“As someone who just bought a dedicated winter tire because my Pilot Sport AS4s don’t do well in just cold, let alone the snow, I’d go for the cross climates. In my experience, around 36° F the Pilot Sport AS4 start to get stiff and lose traction. Add cold with rain or snow/ice, they are outright squirrelly.”

“I ran both pilot sport 4s and pilot sport all season 4 got same amount of mileage out of them around 30k bc can’t rotate.”

How do we compare tires?
Every category score blends two independent signals. 60% comes from professional tire tests (braking distances, lap times, noise measurements), each result compared with every other tire in the same test and newer tests counting more. 40% comes from owner reviews found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates. Both use one scale: the average tested tire gets 70, the best 100. When a tire has only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from the other and the score stays closer to average; with no road test and fewer than five owner reviews it gets no score yet.
Community buzz from Reddit and forums is shown for context only — it never changes the score.
