has anyone tried Michelin Pilot sport a/s 3

Just wondering read some interesting things about it they took some technology from the super sport and made a tire with great dry/wet traction and good life just wondering if anyone has any experience i know it a fairly new tire.

I'm curious about these as well. I need new tires at the end of the summer. If anyone has experience with these on the e90 platform I'd love to hear.

This tire is brand new so there is very little feedback on them as of yet. Michelin claims similar snow traction and wear compared to the older version (the Sport A/S Plus) while improving wet grip, dry grip, handling and steering response.

We should be testing these by summers end.

has anyone tried these pilot sport A/S 3 out yet?

I'm about to pull the trigger and go with them over the super sports, due to the better tread life. I also live in VA where we sometimessss..get snow?

YES, worth the price. Have them on a 2012 E350 coupe. They stick to the ground.

tires

Just want to say that Michelin PSS summer is the best street-able perf tire out there. Just love the dry,wet grip and great handling while being quiet while cruising

I have them on my 335. Only about 100 miles so far but I have no complaints. 235/40/19 fit perfect in the front. And I have some people say there is excessive road noise but I havnt had any issues with it.

^235/40/19 is a pretty tall tire... One profile too tall. 235/35/19 should fit perfectly.
