Michelin Pilot Sport A/S

Anybody used these? They have a smokin closeout deal on them at Tire Rack...was thinking of picking them up tomorrow. I had previously planned on the Goodyear Eagle GTs until I saw these were the same price.

great tire for A/S. theres no reason you should not get them if they fit your needs. im sure you see the reviews on that page. hands down, just get them if they are on clearance.

Hope you bought 'em already.. I just called and they only have 3 left in 245/45/18.
Since they're discontinued (replaced by the MPS A/S Plus), they won't be getting any more.

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S is the 4th set of tires to be on my 4th Gen....they are a very good tire...excellent performance, long wear, quality construction. My car came with Goodyear RSA's (Garbage); replaced them with a set of Bridgstone RE-950's (tread separation on two tires); replaced them with a set of Kumho's (did not like the feel); and then bought the Michelins. The Michelins have been in service for close to 30K and i have been very happy with them.

Buy them ASAP from either tire rack or discount tire direct. although I'll tell you discounttiredirect.com always seems to beat tireracks price and I just got my 235/45/17s for 480 shipped and these are by far the best performance All season tire I've ever seen.

Yep, ordered on Saturday morning - they'll be here on Friday!

I looked today and they are no longer listed...looks like I got a steal.

I usually buy from Discount Tire due to the free shipping....I did have to pay $73 to get these shipped. Discount Tire didn't have these though...so I went with Tire Rack.
