Pilot Sport Question.....

On the Michelin Pilot Sport tires what is the difference between the
A/S3 and the A/S3+ ?
I cannot seem to find what the (+) means.
Thanks.....

The Michelin web site lists the AS3 as "Mild Winter Mobility", and lists the AS3+ as "Winter Confidence" and "latest generation"

I installed a set of AS3+ yesterday. Ride is more comfortable and quieter than the original runflats. No plans to test the snow capabilities.

I am planning on doing the same as you soon and was looking at the retail sites. Never dawned on me to look directly at the Michelin site. Have done well with original Continental Run Flats so far but will do anything to lessen the road noise. They provide a moderate ride but on some road surfaces are quite noisy. Snow capabilities? What is this "snow" thing you refer too?
