Review
I have been using Michelin Pilot Sport3 tyres for 2 years, they are fantastic tyres!
Good in the dry, awesome in the wet, decent thread wear, excellent value for money.
At the time of trade in to PS4, I had done just over 20,000 kms on them and would have estimated at least another 30,000k left if the wear indicators were any guide.
Quiet, durable and a great performance tyre.
The Pilot Sport 4 has replaced these tyres but you can still buy the Pilot Sport 3 at certain tyre shops.
What I like
Quiet, durable and a great performance tyre.
What I do not like

Manage to get the tyre at $145 a pcs (gd bargain)...Tried and tested quiet, good response and handling also good on wet and also dry as per description.
Would strongly recommend to anyone.
What I like
compared to other brand i have tried before...u can really feel the different. one thing i notice is the good handling and braking on
wet and dry surface no problem and i can feel its not that noisy as some people claim.
What I do not like
not at the moment..
but heard the wear and tear of this tyre is about 70%..
so will wait and see.

Review
The reliable brand that have been on for a very long time since i was a kid.
Pilot sport 3 or ps3 in short really provide excellent grip in wet which was my key concern when i buy tyres, it is able to cut through water puddles in great confidence without any feel of pulling or feel jerky, it just as though it is just a normal dry road. it will perform good even when the tread is almost reaching the safety mark
Would recommend if anyone out there have the same concern as me
What I like
The excellent wet and dry.
Having great confidence during heavy rain down pour with many water puddles on the road not to worry out the car having any "pulling " feeling
What I do not like
The treadwear seems to wear out quickly with only about 25000 to 30000 km mileage clock and regular 5000km rotation and balancing.

Overall experience. Good and price cheapest i can find. Need more of these tyre shop to keep the price competitive.
What I like
Extra mile to wash and shine my rims
What I do not like
Too far from my house. As i am living in the west.
Good tyre!, reasonable price. All rounder choice | Posted on 21 Jan 2016 |

Toyota Vios
Review
Owned it currently on my Vios for over 25K and left with around 30%, should be able to last till 30K.
Genrally good all rounder performance. At the price (bought in Malaysia), I would say its a resonable buy.
The side wall is stiff so cornering is stable with this tyre, the only complain is slightly faster wear and tear compare to other tyres I used to own.
What I like
Good all rounders, stiff sidewall provides a good handling when performing sharp turn.
What I do not like
Wear and tear rate.
Quite solid! | Posted on 03 Dec 2015 |

Honda Vezel
Review
I upgraded to 225/45/R18 from my Vezel's stock 16" Dunlop Ecosave.
So far, it has better grip, better braking distance, noise level lower than my previous tyre.
What I like
- Control-wise is good due to the gripping even at high speed.
- Good for both dry & wet roads
- Can handle cornering quite well.
What I do not like
- Price (though tyres are quite important to me in terms of comfort & safety)

Good braking distance especially on wet conditions. Strong gripping and better cornering compared to my previous tyres.
What I like
1) Better control of cars even at higher speed with good gripping.
2) Able to drive better in both wet & dry conditions.
What I do not like
A bit pricey better than other brands. In life, you pay for what you get. Never to save on something that concern lives.

Honda Odyssey
Review
This is my second set of the performance tyres with a switch to Yokohama DNA DB touring tyres in between.
I wanted to improve handling and comfort of my Odyssey which were often tyres' limitations on opposing ends.
Michelin Pilot Sports 3 (PS3) were better than the Yokohamas except a slight increase in tyre noise.
My requirement to drive in wet roads as confidently as in the dry have been met exceedingly.
Highly recommended.
What I like
- Dry and wet grip
- Better overtaking and cornering ability
- Sense of confidence and safety
What I do not like
- Slightly noisier than the Yokohamas
- Silica compound picks up road trash more than the Yokos

Fitted them on my car and I do really love to see well crafted grooves and lines of PS 3. I am also impressed with their overall performance including their good aqua planning and traction (dry and wet).
What I like
Good grip and control
What I do not like
Will be better if the tread life is longer.

Review
After using my previous set of Premacy HP(another good set of tyre). I decided to return to Michelin to try out the PS3. Immediate impression is the softer side wall of the PS3 (despite a high performance tyre) which translate to better ride comfort.
A good set of tyre for any driver seeking good grip in both wet and dry condition.
What I like
Soft side wall, quiet, good all weather grip.
What I do not like
Price?

Michelin PS3 givees good grip and control. Experience better grip even when turning at junctions at high speed. Sticks well on the road. Good acceleration now without wheel spin. Noise level is low and the wear rate seems reasonable.
What I like
Better handling
What I do not like
Nothing
Perfect handling set of tyres! | Posted on 13 Apr 2014 |

Review
Very, very quiet! Smooth at all speeds up to 120kmph. Excellent dry and wet traction compared to stock tyres. Nice riding tyre, if a bit more firm than stock's, but that is what I wanted and no morning thump as some have suggested these are prone to. Balanced nicely, with one requiring no weights. A great tyre for the price!
What I like
Works silently and perfectly on the tarmac, providing smooth rides through the roads.
What I do not like
During wet conditions, these tyres tend to be slightly noisy. Doesn't bother me though.

Comes with my new car and been using for about 1 year. Good dry performance when cornering with harder sidewalls. Same goes for wet performance, can't feel the car sliding off when going at higher speeds.
What I like
Good wet and dry performance. Harder sidewalls. Sticks to the road
What I do not like
Slightly higher noise at higher speeds. Faster wear and tear.
