MICHELIN PILOT SPORT 3 tire reviews and ratings 3
Advantages: Excellent option.
Disadvantages: from County 1 season flaws did not find!
Comment: I read a very long time, I chose not to be mistaken and not mistaken! Bought in the spring of 2017. 205/55/16 At Toyota Corolla E150 holds the road confidently. Handling is excellent! Not noisy! Soft! I am from those drivers that park almost tight to the groove (in order not to make it difficult to move the rest of the T / C), as a result of which, rarely, but still happens, I will carry off the tires to the grease, and with these tires of cuts, I did not have punctures. Very satisfied with the purchase.
Advantages: excellent handling! Not so noisy as competitors.
Disadvantages: not found
Comment: This is the tires where the word "sport" in the name is not a marketing stroke. Yes, this tire is designed for a track, for the race, for dynamics and sensations. Awesome clutch with an expensive at the same time she is not so hard to fall out the teeth and not so noisy to think that it takes off. For any machine, regardless of power, it will be a great option for the dynamics and drive.
Advantages: excellent coupling properties both in turns and direct, resistant to the appearance of cones and cuts.
Disadvantages: relatively rapid wear.
Comment: FF C-MAX car is just super. 30 km run by the killed roads of the Crimea not a single bump and cut.
Advantages: Auto BMW E34 with M57D30 M57D30 on MCPP, disks of the varchestry 9j. Long chose and thought that she was put on the summer. In the end, it came across the sale at unreal low prices (3000 r. / PC.For 245/45/17 PS3 on the front axle and 5000 r. / PC. For 275/40 R17 PS2, on the rear axle). Production France. Bought this year, the rubber was 2005-2008. Initially, I thought that the cranes for her, but when I came was very surprised at how soft without cracks as soon as from the factory. In the tire terminal on the wheel, taking into account, not more than 70 grams were inspired by the ideal disc. So the first impressions of driving. In dry weather, beautiful maneuverability, a great set of speed and excellent braking, so that ABS worked, you need to try very much. In the rain also left satisfied and rebuilding at 120+ speeds and braking remained at height. In the Moscow Ring Road, in the presence of a rut of complete water, it begins to capricious, but the control is still very good. Yesterday I went to the Tver region in the Leningrad highway, the roads just Ahtung flew a couple of times in the pit at a speed of 120+ I thought that everything or a disk bridle or hernia was provided, but it was not here that there was a rubber worries with a bang. As exploiting and wear, I will complement your feedback. Rubber unequivocally recommend!
Disadvantages: prices for new more expensive most.
Advantages: Holder with a reinforced sidewall (XL version) 205/55 R16 – Pits holds adequately, there were no problems for the season, although there are not very roads (Perm region)
Disadvantages: not the quietest tires, but also there are no special claims for noise. You just do not need to wait that they whispering ":) provokes to active ride 🙂
Comment: Tires were bought in 16 by the beginning of the season, were produced in recent weeks 15 years. Everywhere they write about rapid wear, but I did not notice much expense for the season. Bagels I do not go, I will not start with the slip, because it does not work because of the holder 🙂 I frankly do not understand those who need to go to 5 years old, the 3 seasons are optimal – after all the same elder problems still appear and disappears Confidence that they will not let down. Prior to that, Michelin Primacy HP was stood – it seemed that they were more tender in our road conditions than these.
Advantages: Holder and Bulk! It's just something. Control accuracy – Cosmos.
Disadvantages: noisy for bad asphalt. Quickly erased (but I think it's because of the style of the ride, because tires allow incredible).
Comment: 245-45-18. It is worth taking.
Disadvantages: Fast wear, went to it consciously. Compromises do not happen. Like with pads and other things. Want cool – Morning with the price and speed of wear.
Comment: My version of Made in Spain. Satisfied with the tires on 100pro = just a magnificent clutch with an expensive – both wet and dry. More chance to get a blow from behind than to fly into someone.
Advantages: Wonderful Rubber. It is not high for its 55 height. I wanted to take 50, but this is better all the same semputes. And by the way, she does not firmly and the hernia is stable. Another plus that wear goes the same. I look after I look at what to put on the front (front-wheel drive car) and it is difficult to solve. Visually the same. Car on the machine and without dull ride.Regarding hernias, the truth is very pleased with their absence! Recommend!
Cons: Can't find it!
Pluses: Confidently holds a wet road, less confident, but very worthy of dry cornering, easy!
Cons: Had to get used to cornering at speed on dry pavement.
Comment: I promised myself to leave a review after 10 thousand run. Outcome: changed from Bridzhikov Turanza. I immediately noticed that on the Bears with a quick start there are practically no axle boxes, the Bridzhiks have a problem with this. Bears with sudden braking stop quickly and smoothly! The weight was very pleasantly surprised, they are definitely lighter than all the cylinders that I had. Holds a wet road very well, although I don’t understand why from the tread pattern. In steep and fast turns it floats a little, is about to break into a skid, but over time I got used to it and nothing like this has ever happened. At +5 degrees outside, I do not recommend driving fast. My result: the tires are excellent, if you are considering a replacement, you can safely take it, but. I came to buy, I already take it in my hands, and on it "made in rush", I am not an enemy to myself and my Spanish car (Seat Leon), I began to search for foreign production, because all the sellers unanimously claimed that anything from a European manufacturer is better than branded rubber produced in Russia (a very large number of fakes due to the dishonesty of the factory workers. Not all rubber passes quality control, there is a leftist). I searched for a long time, but I found it at 1200 more expensive for a bottle and made in Spain. The balance is excellent, I got into the pits, there are no hernias. I'm satisfied!! R16
Pluses: Soft, quiet, excellent grip on wet and dry roads. Wear for the season (about 15 thousand km) is not noticeable at all. Can drive on ice 🙂 Upd: Second summer. Nothing to say, everything is fine. On the new pavement, you don’t feel like the car is rolling at all, and everything is fine on the rough one (comparing with the Bridgestone ER300, which was standing before).
Disadvantages: It can break off sharply at temperatures colder than 5, but it is not intended for operation in such weather either 🙂
Comment: Made in Germany, 2014 release. Proezdil season on Jetta 1.6, size 205/55/16. The balance is very good.
Pros: – Soft. Plus – not noisy, though when compared with my previous Bridgestone MY-02 Sporty Style‎ – quiet. – A strong cord – it is possible to park in grinding to a curb. – It rides well in the rain, but it is better not to check for the maximum hydroplaning speed.
Cons: – Soft. Minus – the feeling that the tires were developed by marketers. The rubber index is ZR, in fact, 2 cylinders were enough for a season (in Sochi – it is equal to one calendar year). 30 thousand and the side cord has already climbed. Rear 50%. Moreover, at 15 I threw front-back. – Noise. As soon as the wear reaches 50%, a hum appears. So specific, it disappears only on perfect asphalt. – Only for asphalt. The slightest dirt or snow and that's it – the car stopped.
Comment: Rubber r16 205/55. Bought to replace Bridgestone MY-02 Sporty Style‎ for golf 6 1.4 tsi. The previous tires were afraid of water (I don’t know if this is connected somehow, but there was a directional tread).The puddles cut, but as soon as there was a turn, she continued to go straight. There was also noise – the usual thing, if the protector is directed. In the Office did not win. That past tires that new – both on dry kept perfectly. True, at Bridge, the demolition was without squealing rubber, on Mishke, the screech is good. It is afraid of the coating in the form of land, the snow – stuck on the country's road after the rain. Bridgestone MY-02 And rowing on any coating, whether it was a wet earth or snow, even on ice I was confident (in Sochi he is rare, but it happens). Wear. This is generally a separate article. Yes, in Sochi ride fast. On the highway Sochi-Adler, the average speed above 90. I myself drive in some places on the cruising 140-150. Therefore, I bought rubber with the index w (up to 270 km / h). But judging by what kind of wear is at my driving, I'm afraid to imagine what would be when driving up to 270. I probably would have enough for a couple of circles. This is noticable, knowing that "the head of the sports unit Mishelin Pascal Quanon made it clear that the company will return to Formula 1 only if the tires again become the object of technical thought, and not only the means of entertainment of viewers in races." And there was an answer: "Everything you can do in Michelin is to produce the" stone "tires that can be put on cars in January, but to remove – in December." – Bernie Ecclestone Chapter F1. The next rubber will not be Michelin – is ruining with them.
Advantages: Good hook on dry and wet asphalt, no aquaplaning, pretty quiet
Disadvantages: Rubber is some kind, it is felt during rebuildings and sharp turns, it is very difficult to call her sports.
Advantages: It's best for your head that I tried! Good rubber mixture. Beautifully hold the road on dry and wet asphalt.
Disadvantages: not super quiet but not very noisy.
Advantages: I like everything. Very worthy rubber. Comfort and manageability according to my concepts most important in tires.
Disadvantages: the lack is certainly the price. Although I found a democratic one. For one tire 4150 at R16 / 205/55 Made in Spine production.
Comment: I bought them quite unexpected for myself. I really wanted and looking for Bridgestone re003 since everything is very beautifully painted there, but I didn't have to wait anywhere else, but for me impatient it critically, I wanted here and now. From rubber I received everything that I wanted excellent handling (as on rails) in any weather, of course, with a sign +, while the maximum comfort in the car (Ford Mondeo 3 2.5L 170L.s). Neither one other rubber does not have such a feeling as "sticking to asphalt" and the feeling of the road. When choosing a sideline, Primasy 3 is softer, which influenced the final choice. But still very much I want to try the bridge). She feels the chaliness by the way, but from side to the side does not throw if the steering wheel hold! Something like this)) good luck to everyone on the roads !!
Advantages: Excellent tires, stand their money (28 tyr). Sports character. Perfect the road at any speed (tested to 220 km / h in New Riga). The feeling from driving is very comfortable, ride gently, but the control is not lost. Quiet, rustle nice.They behave phenomenally in the rain of any strength, both in a straight line and in corners – as if you were driving on dry asphalt.
Comment: Modification 225/45 R17 94Y used on Volvo S60 2.5T AWD. These are tires for excellent and good asphalt, the coating worse causes fear that the tires will not stand up and deteriorate either from a sharp stone or a deep hole. Although, perhaps this is my subjective impression, the roads were different, 10,000 km were covered in April-October 2015, the tires are in perfect order. Wear for such softness is acceptable, it should be enough for 2-3 seasons.
Pros: Handling on dry and wet surfaces, stability in turns and high speeds, strong sidewalls (not a single cut and hernia in 3 seasons)
Disadvantages: Heavy wear (a couple of bottles on the drive axle for the season); somewhat noisy on pavement with large crumbs (for me, not critical)
Comment: Dimension 225/45 P17 made in Spain, car Octavia A5 1.8, driving style – aggressive / calm – 50/50.
Pros: Good water drainage in wet weather, fairly quiet, reasonable price
Cons: haven't noticed yet
Comment: I bought this rubber for myself, I wanted to take the Pirelli first, but decided to try the Michelin. All the same, Pirelli is relatively recent in our market.
Pros: – Excellent handling. – Tacky. – Despite the Hi-Perfomance, it is quite soft and comfortable, quite suitable for everyday use.
Cons: – Expensive. For the money that they are asking for her now, I would hardly have taken her – Noisy.
Comment: 205/50R16. In general, I did not plan to buy it, because. it is unlikely that this rubber was developed for 150-horsepower sedans 🙂 But the tasty price and the fact that the tires were released less than six months ago played their part – in the end I bought them. There are no complaints about handling – they perfectly hold the road both on dry and wet asphalt, efficient and predictable braking, excellent hooking (breaking into axleboxes on good asphalt is an almost impossible task for my car). The only downside is it's noisy. Although, I'm not sure that it will be possible to find something quieter. In terms of acoustic comfort, it makes the previous Turanza, handles joints and comb softer. Not to say that the noise is intrusive, but it is present. I don’t know about wear problems – with my mileage, the rubber will last for 5 years for sure. Other than that, I'm happy with the tires. I recommend to buy. However, I still think that for cars without pretensions to sportiness, you can buy something more civilian, cheaper and, possibly, quieter.
Pros: Decent price. Holds the road great. Controllability. Not noisy.
Cons: A lot of wear.
Comment: I bought it at a good discount, so I didn’t even consider the model. Stands on the car Ford Focus 2, 2.0. Road holding is just amazing. Cornering like it's on rails. At high speed it does not throw, at 200 km / h it goes like a cast. There is no noise and does not change with speed. There are no complaints about wet asphalt. The store said it wears out quickly. We will see.Made in Spain, not in Russia, which was a pleasant surprise. In general, a great option.
Pros: Braking is excellent. Coupling, high-speed qualities Handling is excellent, in any weather, on any asphalt Quiet, soft, comfortable tire The track is not felt, the presence of a protective side for the disc, Absolute confidence on dry and wet pavement Cuts puddles in a rut perfectly, no hint of demolition. Confident handling in turns, like on rails. Excellent behavior at near zero temperatures) Justifies the name Pilot Sport
Disadvantages: I didn’t notice, I didn’t find any cons for myself with regard to heavy wear, as many write here, as a disadvantage, I’ll say this, it all depends on yourself.
Comment: I bought it in the spring of 15 for ff2 in the amount of 205/55 / ​​ZR16, drove 10 t.km on it. for the season. Produced in Spain, 0215. Aggressive driving style, the previous Nokian was not enough. The best tire model that I rode on my focus was the factory Primacy HP, then two seasons of the Nokian Nordman SX. Michelin are excellent and best speed tires, tried them at speeds from 160 and above, at 200 they behave predictably, like on rails. Rulitsya very clearly and sharply at any speed. Safe tires on the highway and in the city, very predictable. Behavior in a rut is predictable and controlled. The quality of the tire is on top, with proper operation, there are no problems. I went long distance, no problems, no hernias or cuts) I think the main qualities in tires are hydroplaning and braking, here the PS3 does an excellent job and justifies its money. The next tire will again, of course, be PS3 Very satisfied with the tires, they never let me down during the summer season
Pluses: you can ride in winter because of the softness
Disadvantages: in hot weather becomes chewing gum
Comment: Worst tire I've ever ridden, in hot weather the car becomes uncontrollable, floats in corners, throws on braking, the AUDI S5 (255 35 R19) has never behaved like this before. several times I almost flew out precisely because of the tires. good in the cold.
Pluses: Good handling on asphalt. Dry or wet, it does not matter, in the rain the rubber does not float.
Disadvantages: – Does not ride on wet mud or grass from the word at all. – Noisy, although this may be due to the 225 width
Pros: Excellent all-weather performance
Cons: High rolling resistance
Comment: I use size 245/45r18, XL version (with reinforced sidewall), front wheel drive. It got ridiculous – even if you want to, you can’t start with axle box on dry ground (potential 050 allowed), very good grip, excellent reactions to the steering wheel. It rides in the rain simply and clearly, the aquaplaning threshold is high, everything is predictable. In general, I noticed that I stopped worrying about driving modes – rubber allows everything in general, it never slips, does not break. In some way, she reminded me of the primacy pilot I once loved – he was also very reliable, only more noisy.I had a chance to fall into pits of various sizes and depths (those who have been to Saratov will understand) – everything is in place, nothing has been pierced, perhaps this is the merit of the reinforced XL sidewall. The road trifle is passed elastically, does not bother anything. Someone writes about noise. Well, I don’t know, everything seems to me within reasonable limits, I don’t feel any discomfort. At the moment, I have driven about 15 thousand (the first season), the wear is visually small, it will definitely be enough for three seasons. What I didn’t like was the increase in gasoline consumption, the price for its excellent tenacity. In general, this model is very satisfied. I chose between it and supersport, I chose a more universal, civilian version, suitable for different types of surfaces and weather conditions, which I do not regret at all.
Pluses: Bought to replace michelin energy saver ford focus3. I am very pleased that I replaced it and did not waste my money! For a long time I chose between Primacy and Continental. Smartly keeps the car at speeds up to and more than 120-140 km, I began to feel less speed, drive faster, directional stability at a height, control is much better! It became noticeably quieter in the cabin, even with unglued wheel arches, little noisy, light, not annoying rustling from rough asphalt, I didn’t notice any rumble at different speeds, on the same roads – in my opinion it became quieter in the cabin! With native Michelin Energy North, there were vibrations in the cabin and a little on the steering wheel after 115-120 km / h – I specially checked before buying rubber with laser balancing everything was clearly balanced on the stand, I thought there were problems with the suspension, however, after installing these new tires (pilot sport3) on the same disks – vibrations in the cabin disappeared, the same laser balancing. Not stiff as some might think sport, soft and very comfortable! In rainy weather behaves normally, braking is good.
Disadvantages: It seems to me that for 8 thousand km a little less or about 1 mm in front of the tread wear is a bit much. in the rain – when you get into a deep rut filled with water, at a speed of about 100 km / h and higher, it pops up dangerously on the highway, chatting a little, as if pulling it off, it becomes scary and unpleasant, you cling to the steering wheel, but in principle it is predictable, and that's me I think because of falling into a rainy deep rut with wheels – any other tires I think do not behave better under such difficult road conditions. Michelin Energy was no better in the rain and rainy ruts.
Commentary: Quiet (acoustic comfort), driving comfort, softness, safety, stability! Gasoline consumption is almost the same, even a little lower (it's summer now), but it depends not only on tires – so I can't say. I liked the tires, I would take these tires on another car next time! The car rolls, as they say on rails, love the management! Became faster to ride on the highway with comfort! Only now I realized that the michelin energy saver was a budget option, and the price is not much lower.I am very, very pleased with these tires, I recommend them, I feel additional reliability and safety when driving, especially on the track!
Pros: Softness. Good braking.
Cons: From 80 to 100 is very buzzing! Very noticeable. In the rain, in comparison with the previous ones, worse. The grip is mediocre. Certainly not a sport.
Comment: Rubber R19, different width, stands on X3 e83. The first thing that was unpleasantly surprised was the rumble. It starts somewhere at 60, completely disappears after 110. The gap between 80-100, it feels like a truck is driving nearby. Further – it is not a sport, do not be deceived by this word in the title. Compared to the previous Pilot Sport 1, this is an ordinary civilian rubber. For nausea. In the rain it is worse than the same Sport 1 or, standing on a different set of wheels, Pirelli P Zero. However, she is very soft. My oak X3 seemed to be dressed in slippers. Comfort has improved a lot. I didn't even expect it to have such an impact. As a result, there is no desire to pile on it. I just want to cruise around. If it wasn't for the noise, I would recommend it for a quiet driving experience. But this hum kills everything. Perhaps it only appears in certain sizes. Don't know. On previous tires, in the same size, silence. And so – it is better to look at other tires.
Advantages: You don’t notice the difference on dry wet asphalt, it enters the turns like it’s on rails. Rubber 18R-225-45
Disadvantages: soft rubber, hernias, self-tapping screws stick (a few times a week, I don’t remember how many different rubber and cars there were), dirt does not like
Comment: I liked the rubber for some reason, but the sidewalls are soft, hernias and tore one rubber when it got into a hole, in heavy rain it kept the car on the highway perfectly, even went to overtake
Pluses: Handling at speed, the passage of small and medium bumps
Comment: Auto Mercedes W221, size 275/40/19. I drove 6000 km on this rubber, mainly in Europe, a lot of high-speed roads. Handling is perfect, rutting is not felt, a very pleasant feeling of rubber and ductility while driving! But everything spoils the WILD HUM when driving from 50 km / h and further. So for those who don't care about noise, this is a great choice! Upon returning from Europe, I bought a kit in the same size Continental Kontisportkontakt5 – the rubber is slightly inferior in handling, but it feels the rut very much, the passage of bumps is worse, sharp bumps are transmitted to the salon – very unpleasant! Much more noise than Michelin. For information – now I bought a Toyo C1S of the same size, it can be a bit worse than Michelin in handling and passing irregularities, but it’s really VERY quiet!) I recommend it! Yes, and the price is more interesting) All sensations are described relative to the specified tire size, adjusted for the sound insulation of my car.
Pluses: Quiet, holds the road well, the track is not felt, soft, the presence of a protective side for the disk, cuts puddles perfectly, absolute confidence on wet pavement, the car enters turns amazingly, like on rails.
Comment: 225/45 R 17 Y for Skoda Superb.Put in May 2014, rode until November 2014 when it was snow, because with a minus 5 rubber not disturbing, passed 15,000 km. Rotation tire did not. Front cylinders wear 90%, rear wear about 60%. Hernia, no cuts, the protector is worn uniformly. Moderate manner: I never started with a boss, did not brake with a whistle. Average speed on the highway 130-140 km / h. A couple of times accelerated to 245, when you caress with someone. I think that he made a jamb in the choice of the "Y" speed index, since he read on the Internet, which is higher, the concentration of the soft mixture in the cylinder above the concentration of a soft mixture, which allows the cylinder almost to stick into the asphalt, but also to wear out with "space speed". Now I will ride somewhere until May, and most likely I will take the same, but with the speed index "W" in the hope that for such considerable money, the rubber is longer exploring. He stopped at Michelin, because I had a 2.4l Avensis to Skoda. Stood on it Dunlup. Frank g. But this Dunlup or Dalp. The tread of the Christmas tree went in the salon a terrible acoustic discomfort. Threw him, took Michelin Pilot Exalto (Made in France) Cylinders brought comrade from France itself. My friends – it was a fairy tale. Drived about 30,000 km., Worn 50%, and sold in 2012 Avensis along with rubber. I wanted to take the same on Skoda, but the pilot is exalted with a width of 225 mm. Do not produce, only up to 215 mm.
Advantages: Having perfectly holds the road, like how it behaves in turns, good resistance to aquaplan, for wide rubber (235 / 45-17) is good in a rut.
Disadvantages: noisy, but I do not consider it a disadvantage. So, feature.
Comment: Of all the models, the only one survived two seasons. Washed equally. Driving style rather aggressive, car – Audi, four-wheel drive. On my model, the sidewall is reinforced, respectively, there are no problems that many complain. Definitely the following will take the same.
Advantages: confidently holds the road to any weather, soft and silent. Does not fail even at a negative temperature (until the latter refused to be transferred to the winter tires at the end of last year, calmly staggered all the terrible queues).
Disadvantages: here they write about self-tapping screws, etc. I do not know, I tried all the well-known brands, but in each of me there was several self-tales, no one will insure you from it.
Comment: The best model for all my driving experience (more than 14 years). On my sports car rather hard suspension, but Pilot Sport 3 significantly compensates for this deficiency due to its softness. I do not exclude that at the expense of rubber almost do not feel high speed when you go faster than 200 km / h. Turns can be included with a much greater speed than regular rubber. He behaves well on a polluted road. It is still not believing that you can buy rubber with such properties for quite adequate money. And a very important point: with all its properties, Pilot Sport 3 turned out to be the most wear-resistant of all previously tested models.
