Excelent tire only marginaly topped by the contisport contact 5. For the st150 these are the BEST. People talk about the uniroyal rainsport which i previously had on the front and they dont compare, ps3's wipe the floor off the uniroyals.

Comfort is good compound is soft but not very soft
Would not buy again expensive tire can get Hankook V concepts or Kumho Ecsta Lx Platinum KU27 much better tires for same price or less
Have about 5000km on the tire so far very reliable for commuter and occasional spirited driving

Michelin PS3s are my go-to tires, and seemingly the favoured tires of much of the motoring community as a whole. And for good reason.
Many other often cheaper tires may have good grip in the dry, in the wet or good wear and durability but in my opinion no other tire has all three.
PS3s have absolutely flawless levels of grip in both wet and dry and in terms of wear, last the longest of any tire I have ever tried. I have a 360bhp car and Continental or Pirelli offerings barely see 10,000 miles from a stint on the front axle. PS3s on the other hand will happily see getting on for 15,000 miles.
Give them a try, it is absolutely worth it. The extra investment may seem difficult to stomach at purchase time, but consider that the extra miles endurance soon make this an economical choice!

Excellent Tire wet and dry.
Compliments the cars go-kart handling nicely.
Can't comment on how they would perform in a track environment, but they cope well fast road.

Almost unnatural wet grip and very good in the dry. They just hold and hold and fill you with plenty of confidence. Rolling resistance is quite high so fuel economy isn't great but that's not why you buy this car.
Being very soft, they don't last. I've done around 5000 miles on them and they're about halfway worn at the front; still looking pretty new on the back however.
Side walls were surprisingly soft which, considering the grip is good, isn't a bad thing for your back at all.
Al round a very good tire for a sports car.

Wear is quite severe, have 13500 miles on the clock and 4mm left on front and 3mm on rear. All four tires are wearing fairly evenly across width.
Disappointed that rear tires wear the same as front. I am happy wheels are properly aligned and I would consider myself a careful driver travelling on a good mix of roads and conditions.
Definitely not purchase again. The wear was similar on my previous DS4 !

I placed the score after 3 years on my car and 19300km with them.
On the 1st year great tire. From the 2nd year they started to slip and on the 3nd year they are awful and slip when i start and stop the car with slip road. Put on primacy 3 to test if they are greater. If not i think it would be the last chance for Michelin.
Not recommend them for being on car after the 2nd year.
