Hi, I have 4 Michelin Pilot sports on my S4 - They are great. I love them. Not too loud and they handle great in dry weather - pretty good in wet too. The bad part is that they are not good in snow/ice. I have a winter set: Dunlop Winter Sport M2s. I highly recomend the Michelin Pilot's if you have winter tires as well. Cheers, Adam |
