AVIS SUR LE PNEU MICHELIN Pilot Sport 5

Brilliantly, exactly as my 1st review

Performing well and as expected. Great grip - even been on a track with them and they performed well.

They are great in the wet

Great so far in all conditions

Handling feels sharper than on the previous Pilot Sport 4.

Excellent grip in all conditions, much less likely to break traction than my previous tyres

Have had problems with one of the new tyres losing pressure since fitting, had them looked at twice already and still having problems.

Very slippery and lack of traction in the wet and dry

2 years, 10K miles

Just recently marks 2 years and over 10,000 miles done with the Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tyres on my slightly modified 2017 Focus ST 3 petrol. I don't have too much to say about these tyres because they have just been absolutely great. Surprisingly last winter I felt safer and more grip driving the hot hatch with PS5's than my diesel car fitted with all season tyres from a random name brand. In all honesty, the front tyres handle the power very well, I never have an issue with grip and even in the wet when not going too hard isn't an issue. I haven't yet swapped the wheels front to back, but they still look brand new and have a lot of life left. I live up in north Scotland where the roads can be rough and driving conditions harsh sometimes so I think it goes to show how good quality these tyres are. The car came with PS3's fitted from factory, afterwards had a set of budgets on the front for some time before I decided Michelin's were the only ones to go for. What a great decision it was.

Replaced budget tyres that were awful in the wet. Transformed the levels of grip and feel in the wet and dry as expected.
