Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV Reviews

Customers praise the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV for outstanding dry traction and confident cornering, with scores 9-10 highlighting its precision in sport-focused driving. Wet traction earns strong marks for reliable grip and hydroplaning resistance, though a few note reduced performance in heavy standing water. Comfort receives high ratings for a smooth, quiet ride, though some mention occasional road noise. Treadwear shows mixed results, with many reporting solid longevity (scores 8-10) while others note faster wear (scores 1-5), suggesting variability based on driving style or conditions. Ideal for summer performance, it excels in its intended categories while balancing everyday usability.

...Rain traction is perfect and I feel they are the best tires I can put on the car to keep my family safe...

Great tires for the money. The wife put about 12-14,000 miles on them last year and they seem to be about half worn. Even wear amount all 4 tires and very little road noise compared to the OEM hankooks. Hoping to get this year out of them and will definitely purchase them again. The 10spd trans in the expo can get a little spirited and these handle the high torque very will. Rain traction is perfect and I feel they are the best tires I can put on the car to keep my family safe. Blizzaks in the winter, pilot pros in the summer. Winning combination for a 7,000lb tuned SUV.

...Drives great with good traction on corners (rain or shine)

These things grip like nobody's business. The ridgeline is nowhere near a performance vehicle but handles like its on rails now...

These things grip like nobody's business. The ridgeline is nowhere near a performance vehicle but it handles like its on rails now. I came from touring tires and likely wont go back since I only drive 10k miles per year. Braking is VASTLY improved which is welcome with CA "drivers"....

...Dry grip is super in both cornering and braking, and while we haven't driven them in heavy rain conditions yet, wet grip feels great as well. The tires track perfectly on the straights and run so smooth with a minimum of wheel weights (installed by our Audi dealer)...

What a great tire for the SQ5--seems to be a perfect match for the additional weight and higher center of gravity of a performance SUV. These replaced the OE Latitude Sports, and even with new-tire tread depth, the Pilot Sport 4 SUV has so much better steering response and cornering stability--they seem to provide this great feel and grip effortlessly, reflecting engineering and construction matched to SUV requirements. Dry grip is super in both cornering and braking, and while we haven't driven them in heavy rain conditions yet, wet grip feels great as well. The tires track perfectly on the straights and run so smooth with a minimum of wheel weights (installed by our Audi dealer).

I was almost ready to buy Pilot Sport 4S's but had some concerns about the height & weight of the SQ5, so was really happy to see this tire introduced at just the right time. The Pilot Sport 4 SUV really seems perfect on this vehicle--just the tire for the twisty mountain roads here in WNC and North GA!
