Default New Michelin tires

Looking for 255/40/17 and 225/45/17 in the Pilot SS tires. Any feedback?

Yes, they are responsive, VERY sticky, fairly smooth riding, and quiet. They also handle rain with no problems at all. I have them in the 18" size and they perform incredibly. Expensive tires, but worth it.

I love mine. They are super quiet. The tread blocks are tall and smaller than some of the extreme performance tires. You can feel them squirm when you start into a turn but they stick like glue. They should just get better and better in the dry as they wear down. I haven't gotten them super hot yet so I can't give any input on that.

They don't make them in 255/40/17 for some reason. Only in 245/40/17
