Just got some Michelin Pilot Sports to replace the OEM Dunlops. My initial impression was: WOW! What a difference over the OEM tires! I had expected some improvement, but not was really surprised how much better the Pilots are. They transform the feel of the car. The car now feels much more stable and planted, and tracks like on rails. Handling is much more crisp and precise - very responsive. They make a bit of noise at lower speeds, but on the highway, they quiet down a lot. Also, the ride is much smoother than I expected. A little early yet in the season, but I couldn't resist! the Pilots are pricey - but well worth it! :thumb:
