Michelin Piolt Sport A/S Plus

Site purshaced:
Summit Racing, they go for $229 a tire on there, however they could not price match Tirerack's price of $157 a tire, but they knocked it down to $160 a tire

Initial product impressions, quality: Rated a better tire on Michelin's line than the Exalto's I had, I was impressed. These tires are smooth inside, which is something I've never seen before. After driving on these tires for a year, I cannot say they suck, but not great either. Wet traction is very good, snow traction is very very very good (car dug itself a trench and got stuck with one little tap of the gas pedal so maybe a little too good) however on a "launch" start or even gas pedal pushed 1/2 way, I can spin them pretty easy. In the wet weather, it's very easy to smoke them up for a long distance in a straight line. Great for showing off, but not great for traction.

If not self installed, cost of installation: $40 mounted and balanced
