These were once talked about to be the best road tires to go for. So I went for them. And they were excellent. No complaints from me. I found they wore out quick on the rear of my car but the fronts lasted ages so theres mixed feelings there. Also as they got near their tread limit I had one of the scariest moments in my driving life. I went into a 180 degress spin around a roundabout. Something thats never happened to me before with any other tire. But still I cannot really blame the tires because they were near their tread limit, it was wet and I was overtaking a car in the inside lane of the roundabout in a rear wheel drive car. Plus I guess I didnt have the skills to correct my driving mistake. So if I ignore that incident, these michelins have been superb. Have got these on my girlfriends Golf GTI and she rates them highly too. Infact they are the only tires she wants in future because she hasnt been too impressed with other midrange brands I bought her in the past. These PS2's used to be the ones to go for but now there are a few other newer choices that from reviews seem to be better. I think I might give the Goodyear Eagle F1 asymmetric 2 to her next time because they seem to be a highly rated tire right now. And me Ive got some Toyo T1 Sports as I dont mind the midrange brands.

8 month ago I bought a DS4 which came with Michelin Pilot Sport SP2 fitted as standard. So far I have done around 8000 miles in the car, drove it to france and back. I was very impressed how the tire holds the road in dry conditions, specially when the tires were brand new. As the tire wears off you can feel the difference in grip around corners, while straight acceleration is still great. However it does not perform so well in the wet. The wear of the tire is generally good (compared to Toyo Proxes T1R).

Overall this tire is a great option for the summer even though a bit pricy (around £250 per wheal).

Just replaced a full set of these after lasting 35k I couldnt believe how long they lasted...but the noise was unbearable, the dron was ridiculous on motorways, not sure if it was the Saab but I cant see why nobody else has commented on the noise much.

I swapped to Michelin super sports reading that they were quieter but how wrong was I! Just bedding in a full set of 225/45/18 Super sports and currently regretting it - the drone is unbearable over 60mph - just imagine the wind blowing at high speeds down your street whistling a merry tune - that's Michelin sports for you!

Michelins are far better than the Continentals it came on. Not in the same league for grip, feel or wet weather. Felt I had to take it easy on the Contis whereas Michelin I feel at ease with . Tried to buy PS 3. However size not available when needed!! Only drawback - wear!! Only 8-9 k. However you get what you pay for. 245/35 front 265/35 rear

I had these fitted on my BMW 3 Series Saloon (E90, LCI) 335d M-Sport, May 2010 car. To put this in perspective, this is up to 286hp and 580NM of torque from low down in the rev range - the car was pretty much in the maximum torque zone for most of the driving.

These tires came with the car as new, I had the car from c. 6,000 miles. I swapped to winter tires around 17,000 miles and at this point, the rears were down to around 2mm so I binned them. The fronts were 4.5mm so had plenty remaining.

Driving was mainly motorway and A roads. I checked my pressures every 2 weeks at least.

The wear on these rear tires was even.

When down to around 2mm, there was a substantial amount of rain for a week, with huge amounts of standing water on motorways. With the torque nature of the car and low tread on the tires, I was slightly nervous and expecting the traction control to have to intervene, or perhaps some aqua planing. Nevertheless, the grip shown by these tires in deep water was extremely impressive and the car was planted the whole time.

When accelerating hard you can really feel the rear tires biting the road.

On my previous 3 series (same 18 inch wheel and sports setup) I had Bridgestone Potenza run flats and I can say that these Michelin PS2 run flats are significantly superior, in terms of grip, comfort and noise. For a run flat tire, they are very comfortable.

Power delivery is good and when pushing the car really hard on twisty A-roads the tires felt really strong in the corners.

Having swapped back from winter tires to summer tires a few months ago, I purchased another set of these for my car which is the acid test. They lasted 17,000 miles on the rear of a 335d which is pretty good going. I have full and complete confidence in the tires which I why I purchased them again.

Great tires but really noisy on tarmac - almost droan like in the car, didnt expect this for the price. And I think for the reason I wont buy again and try something different next time.

the most durable tires I ever used. Quiet ones.

The PS2's delivered what I would expect in most areas from a premium brand tire with above average grip in both the wet and dry. However, I feel that they were severely let down by the wear, and it is for this reason I would never buy them again. I just took the car in for a service and the minimum treads were measured at 2.0, 2.5, 1.6 and 2.5 after just 14,000 miles covered. I had to mount the curb (at 2 or 3 mph) when a lorry came around a corner, which resulted in a chunk of tire being removed. I am not sure if this was due to a particularly sharp pavement, soft rubber, or the wrong angle I approached the curb at but I've not seen this before.

I feel that spending nearly £1300 on a set of tires should last more than 14000 miles (around 5 months for me). As winter is just around the corner, I feel that I can't risk letting the tread get much lower, especially as one is already at the legal limit. Perhaps I am changing them to early, I hope my experiance helps others.

This time I am going to try the Matador MP 46 Hectorra 2, they have very good reviews so far (10 reviews to date on this site), similar to the PS2 reveiws, but at less than half the price.

I have had these on the rear of my car. In the dry I found the tire extremely grippy, quiet and long lasting, barely wearing in the 6000 miles ive used them. In the wet they were a little slippy but gave up grip progressively and were easy to control.

I love this tire: Michelin PS2 has it for me. After having ContiSportContact2 and Pirelli PZeroRosso's on the Lexus IS 200 compressor, the Michelin PS2's have proven to be the best tires I have ever had on any of my cars. I drive the car regularly in the daily commute to work where it proves to be very comfortable and stable.
The part where this tire excels over other tires (even the PS3) is the progressiveness & consistency when losing its grip. That is a key feature to me. It announces clearly that you're overdoing it and lets go in a fashion that allows you proper and timely response. This year alone I have done over 80 laps on the legendary Nürburgring Nordschleife with these tires in all kinds of conditions (wet & cold to hot & dry), and added a trackday and a drift course. On every occasion, the PS2 performed really well. The compound is out of this world: sticky all the way but it doesn't wear like a sticky tire! Even with the textile coming out from under the rubber, the tire keeps on going. The PS2 shows less understeer than the PZeroRosso and simply outclasses the Conti's. I have not had any punctures or other problems until now (2nd set of Michelin PS2's), whereas one of the Conti's carcass tore prematurely and the PZeroRosso's carcass showed a profound imbalance that could not be properly resolved with even loads of lead.
Drawback from the loads of grip this tire provides, is the initial difficulty to provoke the car into drifting. That means it will not drift unless you force it to, which is a good thing for a road tire.
The steering response is very good: changes of direction are accurate and the feel is very good. The tires did more miles (22000mi or 35000km's) than any of my previous choices. Seen the track use and spirited driving, that's an excellent performance.
They are very pricey and had to be specially ordered, but I prefer these PS2's over the newer generation PS3. That choice is now also confirmed by Michelin by telling us the PS3 is not the successor of the PS2, but the Supersport is. But we knew that already...

They lasted 25k with mainly motorway driving and are excellent tires, dry grip is one of the best out there but I was slightly let down with wet grip which although was good is no where near the Eagle F1A's standard.

All in all an excellent tire but not worth £180 per corner IMHO.

Used these tires on twisting small roads at excess speed as well on motorways at stupid speeds. SO far they have never let me down on grip.
