Michelin Super Sport are the greatest thing in the world except for a nice MLT - mutton, lettuce, and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomatoes are ripe. They're so perky, I love that.

I've had both types on my SL and my CLK 63. Hands down, the Pilot Super Sports are my choice.

well sl and clk 63 are both super powerful cars. what i care the most is comfort.
just got them
ride quality is perfect.
to give you an example. i changed from 17" with sport contact 3 to 18 sport cont 5p and there is no degrade in terms of comfort over bumps etc.

car when going faster sticks like crazy. and the steering wheel is super accurate there is no skid or anything.
