These tires have lasted almost twice as long (20,000 miles)on the front two wheels as some other similar premium brand tires and have much better wet weather grip.
They do give quite a firm ride which can mask the road feedback a little at times although they are quiet, but they are the tire I've been most happy with so far.
They don't give fantastic forward grip in the snow but they are not a winter tire.
I have also tried Goodyear F1 GSD3's and Vredestein Ultrac on the front of this car (Seat Leon TDi Cupra 150).

Aquaplaned in very wet conditions on a straight road with only 2mm of wear on tire.

At 103,000miles, my tire dealer sold me PS2's in place of the C-drives I replaced the original Bridgestones with.
The PS2's are smoother, quieter and transmit far less "thump-thump" from the road back into the cabin.
The wet grip is marginally better than before as is the wet grip.
More noticably is that now the PS2's have done over 30,000miles and are almost shot, the wet grip has not decreased like the C-drives did.
I am looking forward to the new new PS3's.

Excellent tire if a little expensive. Wear wasn't too bad but wuld like to have had them last for longer

phenomenally better in the wet than the original Pilots. Strange that the rears never seem to last as well as the fronts! ;)

I'm mixed about these! I have had a new all-round set put on a 130bhp TDCI 2003 Mondeo Hatchback. ?140 per tire. 6000 miles later of average to gentle driving the fronts are wearing at an alarming rate - I don't think I'll be seeing more than 15000 miles out of these front tires. If I'm lucky! On that basis alone I'd never have them again, or the PS3 as my opinion has been tarred! Cornering and quietness are the only redeeming features. On a heavy diesel lump, front wheel drive, the tires struggle to grip where my previous Yokohama S306 had no problems - and they lasted 22k. I shall be going back to those.

Am driving 17" sport rims with different sizes front and back. Previous owner had 4x 225 size tires, what a difference. This is a great tire but quite pricey compared to what's out there, and who really needs a Z speed rating anyway?

These tires replaced OEM Run-flats and are, as promised, a revelation. Only a slight softness on initial turn-in required some adaptation coming from the stiff-walled Bridgestones. Beyond that, the dry grip is noticeably superior on smooth surfaces and incomparable on rough stuff. Similarly, wet grip as a proportion of dry is astonishing.

Ride comfort is excellent with well-suppressed bump-thump and only a feint hum on the smoothest surfaces. They cope with coarse chip much better than expected for a high performance tire.

Downsides? As the M3 owner states, below 6-7 degrees they need a concerted effort to warm up before they really grip but I find 2 or 3 corners have them performing properly again and with our warmer climate this is rarely an issue for me.

expensive but the absolute best all round tire in the world

Bought these tires in error, actually ordered primacy hp tires but these came in, got them fitted anyway

rear tires are almost to the limit now at around 17k, although theres a hell of a lot of grip in the wet and dry, bit shocked at how quick they ware, on the front of the car they lasted 7k, have since replaced them with primacys on the which seem to do around 9-10k

quite scary in the snow!

the car is big and heavy so i'm not sure how good these are, my last car used to get around 15k on the front tires from mich enegery, but it had half the power.

I can honestly say I was shocked how good these tires are in the wet, just stick to the road like glue, also near the limit the rear tires still stick extremely well to the road, i'm putting down the quick wear to the fact I do little motorway driving, probably about 20% of what I do is on the motorway, most of the roads here are very twisty and hilly

Over two sets the rears last ~14Kmiles, and the fronts ~18Kmiles. Grip is outstanding in a straight line; the best I've ever experienced. Tread wear 39psi rear, 37psi fronts, was perfectly even across the tire. These tires have a massive flaw in the UK climate however. Not only are they plain rubbish below about 4 degC (which is excusable for high performance summer tires), they suffer from very unpredictable cornering. The issue is that the inner 1/3 of the tire is of one compound, which is quite hard wearing and moderately grippy, and the outer 2/3 is a different compound which presumably wears more rapidly, but only gets leaned on under cornering. This outer portion of the tire is amazingly sticky above about 15 degC ambient once you've warmed them up a bit, but below about 8 degC it is very ungrippy. Consequently upon hard cornering the tire is very unpredictable; you may go round a corner like the car is on rails, or it may run wide. This means you just can't have confidence in the setup. Compared to the standard fitment of Continental Sport Contact M3s, these tires undoubtedly have more grip in a straight line, but their turn-in is sloppy by comparison, and they are only any good on a hot day. A tire for warmer climates I feel.

For this reason I have marked down the progressive rating.

I paid ?340 for the pair on the rears and although superb tires I had a puncture yesterday without realising until I got home. I could smell the burnt rubber and knew the tire would be shot. Had the tire looked at today and the it was shredded on the inside. Until then they had covered 10k and were down to 7mm (8mm when new) so very impressed. Dont think I wanna pay ?170 for a new PS2 tire so went for 2 new Eagle F1A's for the rears and will keep the good rear PS2 as a spare.
