2019-04-16 - Hi - my ML63 2014 is due some new tires soon. Despite it being seemingly obvious are these the 'right' tires for it instead of the PS4S? Any idea if you might test these against the Goodyear Asymmetric 3 SUVs which I guess are the closest SUV specialist competitor? Thanks!
They certainly are the right tire for your SUV. Sadly they've not been in any group tests yet, but you can see the TUV data in the launch report from the PS4 SUV.
2020-01-23 - Hi, I am looking for new tires in the nearest future for my Mercedes GLC 63 AMG. I am currently running on Continental Sport Contact 6 (265/45R20 and 295/40R20). I was always Michelin kind of guy, and I use Michelin Pilot Sport 4s on all my other vehicles and wanted to switch also to Michelin on my GLC. I am curious because there is no Pilot Sport 4s in this size, the only available tire is Pilot Sport 4 SUV. Do you think Pilot Sport 4 SUV is less sporty tire comparing to my current Continental Sport Contact 6 and by changing them to Pilot sport 4 SUV I will actually loose performance?
In those sizes the performance should be quite comparable. The Pilot Sport 4 SUV is a much stronger tire than the normal PS4, so should feel just as sporty as the SC6.
2021-10-15 - I have 235/55 19 Michelin latitude sport 3 tires on my Honda CRV and due to a tracking issue, I will have to replace one front tire soon, the other 3 tires are fine. As the Pilot sport 4 SUV has superseded the latitude 3, should I replace the tire with a PS4 SUV, or will this cause an imbalance in handling etc, mixing front tires? The alternative is to find a single latitude 3, or fit a pair of PS4 SUVs, which would effectively waste the perfectly good latitude 3 on the other side. Your advice would be appreciated.
I would not recommend just a single PS4SUV as there will be handling and grip differences when compared to the Latitude 3. My choice would be to place new PS4SUV on the rear and keep the spare latitude as a spare.

I would advise against mixing tires on the same axle. I would probably fit a pair of PS4 SUV and keep the good tire as a spare.
2023-03-19 - I am about to change the tires on my 62-plate Volvo XC70 D5 AWD aut. Currently, I have 4 Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Weather 235/50 R18 on the car. I am absolutely not a fan of these tires. I have a few ideas, I would like to ask you to advise me based on your experience! 1: Michelin Pilot Sport 4 SUV, 2: Bridgestone Turanza 6, 3: Michelin Primacy 4+? My previous car had the Continental Premium Contact 6 on ( really enjoyed them) and now I have seen the PC 7 has just been released. There are not many reviews of the PC7 or Turanza 6 just yet to help me. I am living in Scotland, wet performance is a key element and temperatures are milder ( would it be warm enough for PS4SUV or PC7? ) Most of the time I drive on twisty A roads and motorways. Often long motorway journeys. Which tires would match the best with my car’s characteristics? ( would you recommend any other tires which are not on my list?) I am not driving over the speed limit but enjoy a good drive and a responsive car. Also, enjoy the comfort of the car and the generally low interior noise levels. I really appreciate your answer and help! Thanks
This is not based on actual experience as I've not had the PS4 SUV in a test myself, but based on the data I would have no hesitation fitting it. The PC7 is also a great shout if you can get it in the correct size and load index!
2023-03-20 - I need to buy new summer tires for 2020 Porsche Macan Turbo. Should I go for these "Pilot Sport 4 SUV" whiteout Porsche homologation or stay with Latitude Sport 3 but with Porsche homologation, they are at the same price. Pilot Sport 4 SUV looks like far more advance tire...
Whether you want to stick with the N rated tire is a personal choice, I have a Cayenne and if presented with the same option I would pick the PS4 SUV.
