Different tyres with different abilities. PS3 are 'green' eco-performance tyres not quite up to the ability of PS2.

It is still early to say, but I would say they seem better than the PS2's.
That's my plan - use Super Sports as road tyres and use them on wet track days to benefit from their superior performance when compared to PS2/Cups in wet.

Use full-fat Cup tyres for dry track days when only the best will do

I will be interested to see how close Super Sports come to Cups in the dry on track however as i always found PS2 to do much better than you might expect of a 'road tyre' on track...

I did try, and succeeded it would seem

Have to be honest I thought the PS3 was a different tyre all-together but I bet it will replace the PS2 (as in the PS2 will become discontinued)

I parted with £950 for the set, fitted and balanced etc - and not one mark on the wheels!

They are good value. Certainly less than PS2's.

I'll do the same if reports are good. PSS for Winter road and wet TD's. Cups for Summer and dry TD's.

You bet right - just got this email from Michelin.


Thank you for your enquiry about Michelin Tyres.

235/35 R 19 (front) the PS2 has been replaced by the Pilot Super Sport.
265/30 R 19 (REAR) the PS2 has also been replaced by the Pilot Super Sport.
